Quantum computers use the quantum interference of different computational paths to enhance correct outcomes and suppress erroneous outcomes of computations. In effect, they follow the same logical paradigm as (multi-particle)…
The combining of a General-Purpose Particle Swarm Optimizer (GP-PSO) with Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) algorithm for constrained optimization problems has been shown to be highly beneficial to the refinement, and in some cases,…
Integer Quadratic Programming (IQP) is an important problem in operations research. Local search is a powerful method for solving hard problems, but the research on local search algorithms for IQP solving is still on its early stage. This…
Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) has significant application in various domains. In this paper, we focus on quantifier-free Satisfiablity Modulo Real Arithmetic, referred to as SMT(RA), including both linear and non-linear real…

We study the quantum search algorithm as an open system. More specifically, we analyze the responses of that algorithm to an external monochromatic field, and to the decoherences introduced by the measurement process. We find that the…
Local Operations enhancing the entanglement of bipartite quantum states are of great interest in quantum information processing. Subject of this paper are local selective operations acting on single copies of states. Such operations can…
The spatial search problem consists in minimizing the number of steps required to find a given site in a network, under the restriction that only oracle queries or translations to neighboring sites are allowed. In this paper, a quantum…
Integrating combinatorial optimization layers into neural networks has recently attracted significant research interest. However, many existing approaches lack theoretical guarantees or fail to perform adequately when relying on inexact…
The driving force in the pursuit for quantum computation is the exciting possibility that quantum algorithms can be more efficient than their classical analogues. Research on the subject has unraveled several aspects of how that can happen.…
Executing quantum circuits on currently available quantum computers requires compiling them to a representation that conforms to all restrictions imposed by the targeted architecture. Due to the limited connectivity of the devices' physical…
A quantum algorithm is a set of instructions for a quantum computer, however, unlike algorithms in classical computer science their results cannot be guaranteed. Quantum search algorithm can be described as the rotation of state vectors in…
We study a quantum analogue of locally decodable error-correcting codes. A q-query locally decodable quantum code encodes n classical bits in an m-qubit state, in such a way that each of the encoded bits can be recovered with high…
What is the effectiveness of local search algorithms for geometric problems in the plane? We prove that local search with neighborhoods of magnitude $1/\epsilon^c$ is an approximation scheme for the following problems in the Euclidian…
Recently Rubinfeld et al. (ICS 2011, pp. 223--238) proposed a new model of sublinear algorithms called \emph{local computation algorithms}. In this model, a computation problem $F$ may have more than one legal solution and each of them…
Combinatorial optimization problems implicitly define fitness landscapes that combine the numeric structure of the 'fitness' function to be maximized with the combinatorial structure of which assignments are 'adjacent'. Local search starts…
Searching and sorting used as a subroutine in many important algorithms. Quantum algorithm can find a target item in a database faster than any classical algorithm. One can trade accuracy for speed and find a part of the database (a block)…
The Local Search algorithm (or Hill Climbing, or Iterative Improvement) is one of the simplest heuristics to solve the Satisfiability and Max-Satisfiability problems. It is a part of many satisfiability and max-satisfiability solvers, where…
We examine the use of adiabatic quantum algorithms to solve structured, or nested, search problems. We construct suitable time dependent Hamiltonians and derive the computation times for a general class of nested searches involving n…
Quantum Search Algorithm made a big impact by being able to solve the search problem for a set with $N$ elements using only $O(\sqrt{N})$ steps. Unfortunately, it is impossible to reduce the order of the complexity of this problem, however,…
