Abstract

The Quantum Max-dd-Cut (dd-QMC) problem is a special instance of a 22-local Hamiltonian problem, representing the quantum analog of the classical Max-dd-Cut problem. The dd-QMC problem seeks the largest eigenvalue of a Hamiltonian defined on a graph with nn vertices, where edges correspond to swap operators acting on (Cd)n(\mathbb{C}^d)^{\otimes n}. In recent years, progress has been made by investigating the algebraic structure of the dd-QMC Hamiltonian. Building on this approach, this article solves the dd-QMC problem for complete tripartite graphs for small local dimensions, d3d \le 3.
