Construction of model Hamiltonians for adiabatic quantum computation and its application to finding low-energy conformations of lattice protein models
In this paper we explore the use of a quantum optimization algorithm for obtaining low-energy conformations of protein models. We discuss mappings between protein models and optimization variables, which are in turn mapped to a system of coupled quantum bits. General strategies are given for constructing Hamiltonians to be used …
