Résumé: |
A snapshot of quantum algorithms for optimization |
Description: |
Giacomo Nannicini There is much hype surrounding quantum computing and its potential applications for optimization. However, the technical details are often lost in translation. In this talk I will give an overview of quantum algorithms that may - one day - be useful for continuous and discrete optimization, highlighting possible sources of advantage as well as limitations. In particular, I will discuss variational hybrid algorithms for optimization, simulated annealing for counting problems, algorithms for linear systems, and algorithms for SDPs and LPs. I assume no prior knowledge of quantum mechanics. |
