Quantum state preparation is an important subroutine for quantum computing. We show that any $n$-qubit can be prepared with a $\Theta(n)$-depth circuit using only single- and two-qubit gates, although cost of exponential amount ancillary qubits. On the other hand, sparse states $d\geqslant2$ non-zero entries, we reduce depth to $\Theta(\log(nd))$ $O(nd\log d)$ The algorithm exponentially faster than best-known results number qubits nearly optimal increases polynomially system size. discuss...

We give two new quantum algorithms for solving semidefinite programs (SDPs) providing speed-ups. consider SDP instances with m constraint matrices, each of dimension n, rank at most r, and sparsity s. The first algorithm assumes an input model where one is given access to oracle the entries matrices unit cost. show that it has run time O~(s^2 (sqrt{m} epsilon^{-10} + sqrt{n} epsilon^{-12})), epsilon error solution. This gives optimal dependence in terms m, n quadratic improvement over...

The study of quantum generative models is well-motivated, not only because its importance in machine learning and chemistry but also the perspective implementation on near-term machines. Inspired by previous studies adversarial training classical models, we propose first design Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Networks (WGANs), which has been shown to improve robustness scalability even noisy hardware. Specifically, a definition semimetric between data, inherits few key theoretical merits...

The algorithmic error of digital quantum simulations is usually explored in terms the spectral norm distance between actual and ideal evolution operators. In practice, this worst-case analysis may be unnecessarily pessimistic. To address this, we develop a theory average-case performance Hamiltonian simulation with random initial states. We relate to Frobenius multiplicative give upper bounds for product formula (PF) truncated Taylor series methods. As applications, estimate general lattice...

Accurate and robust localization is crucial for indoor mobile robots, where traditional vision-based systems often struggle with precision reliability.

To address the decreased robustness and accuracy of traditional visual SLAM systems in dynamic environments, this paper proposes a method that integrates FastestDet object detection to enhance performance. First, objects are detected classified by FastestDet. A depth map-based clustering algorithm is then used segment static background from highly objects. Epipolar geometry constraints applied eliminate points low-dynamic objects, retaining only for pose estimation, thus improving accuracy....

<title>Abstract</title> Maximum cut (MaxCut) on graphs is a classic NP-hard problem. In quantum computing, Farhi, Gutmann, and Goldstone proposed the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) for solving MaxCut Its guarantee fraction (the of edges in output over all edges) was mainly studied high-girth graphs, i.e., with only long cycles. On other hand, low-girth are ubiquitous theoretical computer science, including expander being outstanding examples wide applications theory...
