CONSTRUCTING AND PROGRAMMING QUANTUM HARDWARE FOR ROBUST QUANTUM ANNEALING PROCESSES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18484233 titled 'CONSTRUCTING AND PROGRAMMING QUANTUM HARDWARE FOR ROBUST QUANTUM ANNEALING PROCESSES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an apparatus that consists of quantum units and couplers. The couplers are designed to connect pairs of quantum units based on a quantum Hamiltonian, which characterizes the behavior of the quantum units and couplers. The quantum Hamiltonian includes a quantum annealer Hamiltonian and a quantum governor Hamiltonian. The quantum annealer Hamiltonian involves degrees of freedom that carry information, while the quantum governor Hamiltonian involves degrees of freedom that do not carry information but are engineered to control the dissipative dynamics of the information-bearing degrees of freedom.

  • The apparatus comprises quantum units and couplers.
  • Couplers connect pairs of quantum units based on a quantum Hamiltonian.
  • The quantum Hamiltonian includes a quantum annealer Hamiltonian and a quantum governor Hamiltonian.
  • The quantum annealer Hamiltonian involves information-bearing degrees of freedom.
  • The quantum governor Hamiltonian involves non-information-bearing degrees of freedom that control the dissipative dynamics.

Potential Applications:

  • Quantum computing and information processing
  • Optimization problems and combinatorial optimization
  • Simulation of complex physical systems
  • Cryptography and secure communication

Problems Solved by this Technology:

  • Efficiently solving complex optimization problems
  • Enhancing computational power for certain tasks
  • Improving simulation capabilities for scientific research
  • Strengthening encryption and security protocols

Original Abstract Submitted

Among other things, an apparatus comprises quantum units; and couplers among the quantum units. Each coupler is configured to couple a pair of quantum units according to a quantum Hamiltonian characterizing the quantum units and the couplers. The quantum Hamiltonian includes quantum annealer Hamiltonian and a quantum governor Hamiltonian. The quantum annealer Hamiltonian includes information bearing degrees of freedom. The quantum governor Hamiltonian includes non-information bearing degrees of freedom that are engineered to steer the dissipative dynamics of information bearing degrees of freedom.
