SUMMARY:Coherent Parallelization of Universal Classical Computation
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Previously\, higher-order Hamiltonians (HoH) had been shown to 
 offer an\nadvantage in both metrology and quantum energy storage. In this 
 work\,\nwe axiomatize a model of computation that allows us to consider su
 ch\nHamiltonians for the purposes of computation. From this axiomatic\nmod
 el\, we formally prove that an HoH-based algorithm can gain up to a\nquadr
 atic speed-up (in the size of the input) over classical\nsequential algori
 thms—for any possible classical computation. We\nshow how our axiomatic 
 model is grounded in the same physics as that\nused in HoH-based quantum a
 dvantage for metrology and battery\ncharging. Thus we argue that any advan
 ce in implementing HoH-based\nquantum advantage in those scenarios can be 
 co-opted for the purpose\nof speeding up computation. \n\nQNC 1201\n
