SUMMARY:Tutte Colloquium - Stephen Jordan
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Quantum information science for combinatorial optimizat
 ion\n\nSpeaker:\n Stephen Jordan\n\nAffiliation:\n Microsoft Quantum &amp; Uni
 versity of Maryland\n\nZoom:\n Please email Emma Watson\n\nABSTRACT:\n\nD
 ue to input-output bottlenecks\, quantum computers are expected to be\nmos
 t applicable to problems for which the quantity of data specifying\nthe in
 stance is small but the computational cost of finding a solution\nis large
 . Aside from cryptanalysis and quantum simulation\,\ncombinatorial optimiz
 ation provides some of the best candidates for\nproblems of real-world imp
 act fitting these criteria. Many of these\nproblems are NP-hard and thus u
 nlikely to be solvable on quantum\ncomputers with polynomial worst-case ti
 me complexity.
