Nearly Optimal Time-Independent Reversal of a Spin Chain

NIST Inventors
Alexey Gorshkov
This technology is a time-independent protocol that reverses the order of qubits in a chain (e.g., changing the order $1, 2, 3$ to $3, 2, 1$). It uses a pre-engineered "Hamiltonian"—a specific set of fixed magnetic fields and interactions between neighboring qubits—to naturally evolve the system

Performing Bang-Anneal-Bang Quantum Optimization

NIST Inventors
Alexey Gorshkov
A new quantum protocol called the “bang-anneal-bang” protocol, for solving optimization problems such as the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) on a quantum computer.
