Fast Simulated Annealing inspired by Quantum Monte Carlo

Abstract

Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) is commonly used in simulations for Quantum Annealing (QA), but QMC as a heuristic approach has great difficulty in that it takes much time to find minimum energy. It mainly depends on the existence of a trotter layer derived from Suzuki-Trotter decomposition. In this paper, I propose a new approach to calculate it in short time, although it isn't rigorous mathematically. Its validity and advantageous points are also discussed, in comparison with conventional QMC methods.
