This paper summarizes a quantum algorithm of [R.D. Somma, et.al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 130504 (2008)] that simulates a classical annealing process for solving discrete optimization problems. The complexity of the quantum algorithm scales with the inverse square root of the spectral gap of an associated stochastic matrix. This represents a quadratic quantum speedup, in terms of the gap, with respect to classical simulated annealing.

  1. Quantum algorithm for estimating volumes of convex bodies

    quant-ph 2019-08 accept novelty 8.0 of 10

    A quantum algorithm estimates the volume of an n-dimensional convex body within error epsilon using O-tilde(n^3 + n^2.5/epsilon) membership queries, the first quantum speedup for this task.
