We consider a hypothetical apparatus that implements measurements for arbitrary 4-local quantum observables A on n qubits. The apparatus implements the ``measurement algorithm'' after receiving a classical description of A. We show that a…
We study the min-max optimization problem where each function contributing to the max operation is strongly-convex and smooth with bounded gradient in the search domain. By smoothing the max operator, we show the ability to achieve an…
This thesis explores algorithmic applications and limitations of convex relaxation hierarchies for approximating some discrete and continuous optimization problems. - We show a dichotomy of approximability of constraint satisfaction…
We present an open-source Python package, Orbits from Radial Velocity, Absolute, and/or Relative Astrometry (orvara), to fit Keplerian orbits to any combination of radial velocity, relative astrometry, and absolute astrometry data from the…
In the classic circle packing problem, one asks whether a given set of circles can be packed into a given container. Packing problems like this have been shown to be $\mathsf{NP}$-hard. In this paper, we present new sufficient conditions…
In this work, we propose and analyze optimization strategies for the VQE algorithm that combine various methods, including molecular point group symmetries (symmetry adaptation), compact excitation circuits (qubit-excitation-based),…
This paper presents a simple approach to low-thrust optimal-fuel and optimal-time transfer problems between two elliptic orbits using the Cartesian coordinates system. In this case, an orbit is described by its specific angular momentum and…
In this contribution, we generalize the concept of \textit{optimally accurate operators} proposed and used in a series of studies on the simulation of seismic wave propagation, particularly based on Geller \& Takeuchi (1995). Although these…
The parallel orbital-updating approach is an orbital/eigenfunction iteration based approach for solving eigenvalue problems when many eigenpairs are required. It has been proven to be efficient, for instance, in electronic structure…
This paper studies the problem of maximizing the sum of traces of matrix quadratic forms on a product of Stiefel manifolds. This orthogonal trace-sum maximization (OTSM) problem generalizes many interesting problems such as generalized…
We consider the problem of finding the global optimum of a real-valued complex polynomial on a compact set defined by real-valued complex polynomial inequalities. It reduces to solving a sequence of complex semidefinite programming…
In the framework of a multiorbital Hubbard model description of superconductivity, a matrix formulation of the superconducting pairing interaction that has been widely used is designed to treat spin, charge and orbital fluctuations within a…
Optimization with nonnegative orthogonality constraints has wide applications in machine learning and data sciences. It is NP-hard due to some combinatorial properties of the constraints. We first propose an equivalent optimization…
Iteration of the quadratic map produces sequences of polynomials whose degrees {\sl explode} as the orbital period grows more and more. The polynomial mixing all 335 period-12 orbits has degree $4020$, while for the $52,377$ period-20…
We study orbit-finite systems of linear equations, in the setting of sets with atoms. Our principal contribution is a decision procedure for solvability of such systems. The procedure works for every field (and even commutative ring) under…
This paper studies first-order algorithms for solving fully composite optimization problems over convex and compact sets. We leverage the structure of the objective by handling its differentiable and non-differentiable components…
In pursuit of a minimal basis for systems with non-ideal bond angles, in this work we try to pinpoint the exact orientation of the major overlapping orbitals along the nearest neighbouring coordination segments in a given system such that…
Positive linear programs (LP), also known as packing and covering linear programs, are an important class of problems that bridges computer science, operations research, and optimization. Despite the consistent efforts on this problem, all…
The variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) has emerged as one of the leading quantum algorithms for solving electronic structure problems on near-term noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. However, its practical application to quantum…
Let G be a compact group acting in a real vector space V. We obtain a number of inequalities relating the L^infinity norm of a matrix element of the representation of G with its L^p norm for p<infinity. We apply our results to obtain…
