- KonferenzbeitragConnecting the Hamiltonian structure to the QAOA performance and energy landscape(INFORMATIK 2024, 2024) Müssig, Daniel; Wappler, Markus; Lenk, Steve; Lässig, JörgQuantum computing holds promise for outperforming classical computing in specialized applications such as optimization. With current Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) devices, only variational quantum algorithms like the Quantum Alternating Operator Ansatz (QAOA) can be practically run. QAOA is effective for solving Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems by approximating Quantum Annealing via Trotterization. Successful implementation on NISQ devices requires shallow circuits, influenced by the number of variables and the sparsity of the augmented interaction matrix. This paper investigates the necessary sparsity levels for augmented interaction matrices to ensure solvability with QAOA. By analyzing the Max-Cut problem with varying sparsity, we provide insights into how the Hamiltonian density affects the QAOA performance. Our findings highlight that, while denser matrices complicate the energy landscape, the performance of QAOA remains largely unaffected by sparsity variations. This study emphasizes the algorithm’s robustness and potential for optimization tasks on near-term quantum devices, suggesting avenues for future research in enhancing QAOA for practical applications.
