Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, progress has been made in optical quantum computers based on continuous-variable schemes that deal with continuous values, rather than qubit schemes that deal with 0s and 1s. Although the current continuous-variable optical quantum computers are still small-scale and noisy, they can be applied to practical problems if they are utilized properly. Here, we implemented and demonstrated a quantum algorithm for minimizing continuous functions using a small-scale continuous-variable optical quantum computer.
