Physics of Quantum Annealing - Hamiltonian and Eigenspectrum

[张慧雯-bz]

Your video is very informative! I would like to ask your permission to share the videos to the other website in China for the embarrassing reason that Youtube is blocked from accessing in China. I'll translate them into Chinese, and I'll give the sources of the original website. Thank you so much!

annealing doesn't inherit any of the quantum mechanics nature like superposition instead it's like simulating a system that actually works like a quantum computer

[mojancevskialeksandar]

brilliant, personally I prefer quantum annealing computing, I think this is stable computer.

[CorvaireWind]

What do you think of the solution they discovered in Australia where they'll be using light particles (photons) to act as gates? -- The Fredkin Gate I believe it was called?

[leojack]

what you say it does not make, it is just mythology. Initial and final hamiltonian, it does not make sense. A Hamiltonian is just one.

[iftekharmahamud]

What did you mean by
""Anneal the initial hamiltonian"
And how do we know what biases and couples to chose?

[gggavin]

The shapes looks like 4d tetrahedron also, the energy state movement/graph convey that, they can't reach the forth line plus it only moves forward in time, is that the case or can it move backwards ?

[andrewbellinger]

I always worried my quantums were diabetic.

[sajidbinmahamud]

what do you mean by ""rump down the initial hamiltonian??

[alexmichael]

Thanks for the videos! I was wondering if this Hamiltonian actually describes the energy of the D-Wave hardware, or does the D-Wave just try to minimise the energy of this Hamiltonian - and the Hamiltonian has no relation to the energy of the hardware?

[GuillermoRobles]

So to me it sounded like the Hamiltonian aspect is about economy of motion and the Eigenspectrum sorts possible mapped solutions to best solve a problem logistically. Like the traveling salesman problem?

[briannagopaul]

Great video! Does anybody recommend any resources that contain a more technical explanation of quantum annealing? Thank you.

Currently writing a speech to present to my entire High school about Quantum Mechanics and the Development of it over time, aswell as its use in the Real world, and also explaining Quantum Computers. These Videos have helped a lot, since this is a pretty big deal

[alexhutchins]

is this real. I just heard about it, and I've finished some decent research on it. I do not know if this is actually working. the dwave 2x is the third one made. so if it does work, how well?

[donseesyourshaydim]

Thanks so much for putting time and resources into making these videos. I'm not a tech-savy person; I'm definitely not a physicist (I have advanced degrees in English, and a perpetually unfinished PhD dissertation). I've wanted to understand quantum computing, but the videos I've seen on YouTube have, until now, left me bewildered. People either suck at explaining this, or they smuggle into their videos all kinds of conspiracy theories about D-Wave working in cahoots with alien demons who, being capable of altering history, reverse-engineer trivial cultural artifacts that are curiously exclusive to nostalgic middle-class Americas. Your videos take what'd otherwise be gibberish and make it wholly understandable... in less than ten minutes! Very few people have such skill for brevity and efficiency. I give you an A+.

Why is YouTube sending me videos of quantum mechanics?

[jesussurfs]

also, has d-wave 2x been hooked up to lucy/deepmind?

[creeper]

And if you create a 3d printer you believe a quantum computer

[Mjiujtsu]

what is it about the problem that specifies the width of the gap?

[jesussurfs]

something I haven't heard yet is why is the lowest energy state the answer for a problem verses the high energy state?
