In this guest post, I want to talk about adiabatic quantum computing. But first, a couple comments on how this post fits into “open notebook” science. I don’t keep a detailed notebook. Instead, I have a bunch of random ideas, most of which (>95%) I discard very quickly. I’m going to write about one idea of these ideas. I think this idea could be promising, so this post is not about a completely discarded idea. On the other hand, I think that there are many people who are much more capable of getting something out of this idea than I am. So, I think this is a way that I can use “open notebook” science to see if anyone else can use this. Read the rest of this entry »
