Fault-tolerant quantum computation using lattice surgery can be abstracted as operations on graphs, wherein each logical qubit corresponds to a vertex of the graph, and multi-qubit measurements are accomplished by connecting the vertices…
Short-depth algorithms are crucial for reducing computational error on near-term quantum computers, for which decoherence and gate infidelity remain important issues. Here we present a machine-learning approach for discovering such…

We consider variants of the classic Multiway Cut problem. Multiway Cut asks to partition a graph $G$ into $k$ parts so as to separate $k$ given terminals. Recently, Chandrasekaran and Wang (ESA 2021) introduced $\ell_p$-norm Multiway, a…

In Two-Sets Cut-Uncut, we are given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and two terminal sets $S$ and $T$. The task is to find a minimum cut $C$ in $G$ (if there is any) separating $S$ from $T$ under the following ``uncut'' condition. In the…
