ADIABATIC PROGRESSION WITH INTERMEDIATE RE-OPTIMIZATION TO SOLVE HARD VARIATIONAL QUANTUM PROBLEMS IN QUANTUM COMPUTING

摘要

A hybrid classical-quantum computing device to execute a quantum circuit corresponding to a variational problem, is configured. The configuring further comprises causing the hybrid classical-quantum computing device to execute the quantum circuit by performing an adiabatic progression operation, wherein the adiabatic progression operation comprises increasing the difficulty of the variational problem from a simplified version of the problem to the variational problem.
