DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nROBUST QUANTUM OPTIMIZER WITH FULL CONNECTIVITY\n\n
 RAKESH TIWARI\, MCGILL UNIVERSITY\n\nQuantum phenomena have the potential
  to speed up the solution of hard\noptimization problems. For example quan
 tum annealing\, based on the\nquantum tunneling effect\, has recently been
  shown to scale\nexponentially better with system size as compared with cl
 assical\nsimulated annealing. However\, current realizations of quantum\na
 nnealers with superconducting qubits face two major challenges.\nFirst\, t
 he connectivity between the qubits is limited\, excluding many\noptimizati
 on problems from a direct implementation.\n
