具有随机和非随机催化剂的量子退火弱-强团簇问题的平均场解

Mean-Field Solution of the Weak-Strong Cluster Problem for Quantum Annealing with Stoquastic and Non-Stoquastic Catalysts

Kabuki Takada, Yu Yamashiro, Hidetoshi Nishimori

摘要:

我们研究了Albash [Phys. Rev. A 99(2019)042334]提出的平均场版本中量子退火的弱-强簇问题,他通过数值对角化表明,非随机$XX$相互作用(非随机催化剂)消除了有问题的一级相变。我们解决了这个问题,正是在热力学极限的分析方法,并表明,去除一阶过渡成功地实现了由随机或非随机$XX$相互作用取决于是否引入的$XX$相互作用内的弱集群,内的强集群,或它们之间。我们还调查的情况下,两个集群之间的相互作用是稀疏的,即不是平均场的所有到所有的类型。结果再次取决于在何处引入$XX$相互作用。我们进一步分析了如何不均匀驱动的横向场影响系统的性能没有$XX$相互作用,并发现,在横向场的不均匀性删除一阶过渡,如果适当实施。

英文摘要:

We study the weak-strong cluster problem for quantum annealing in its mean-field version as proposed by Albash [Phys. Rev. A 99 (2019) 042334] who showed by numerical diagonalization that non-stoquastic $XX$ interactions (non-stoquastic catalysts) remove the problematic first-order phase transition. We solve the problem exactly in the thermodynamic limit by analytical methods and show that the removal of the first-order transition is successfully achieved either by stoquastic or non-stoquastic $XX$ interactions depending on whether the $XX$ interactions are introduced within the weak cluster, within the strong cluster, or between them. We also investigate the case where the interactions between the two clusters are sparse, i.e. not of the mean-field all-to-all type. The results again depend on where to introduce the $XX$ interactions. We further analyze how inhomogeneous driving of the transverse field affects the performance of the system without $XX$ interactions and find that inhomogeneity in the transverse field removes the first-order transition if appropriately implemented.
