Looking for efficient methods to embed optimisation problems onto neutral atom arrays? We present and experimentally demonstrate a new approach using weighted quantum wires to enable native mapping of sparse MWIS and QUBO graph problems arxiv.org/abs/2503.17115
A schematic showing a 5-vertex weighted graph problem being mapped onto a neutral atom array with local light shifts resulting in the output state encoding the solution.
Our new paper demonstrating weighted graph optimisation using neutral atom arrays is now published in PRX Quantum doi.org/10.1103/PRXQ...
We are excited to be part of the CDT in Applied Quantum Technologies - applications now open for October 25, see projects at aqt.ac.uk or sign up to learn more and meet supervisors at our recruitment event 10th January www.aqt.ac.uk/2024/10/31/r...
