- Abstract: We present a quantum algorithm for finding the minimum of a function based on
multistep quantum computation and apply it for optimization problems with
continuous variables, in which the variables of the problem are discretized to
form the state space of the problem. Usually the cost for solving the problem
increases dramatically with the size of the problem. In this algorithm, the
dimension of the search space of the problem can be reduced exponentially step
by step. We construct a sequence of Hamiltonians such that the search space of
a Hamiltonian is nested in that of the previous one. By applying a multistep
quantum computation process, the optimal vector is finally located in a small
state space and can be determined efficiently. One of the most difficult
problems in optimization is that a trial vector is trapped in a deep local
minimum while the global minimum is missed, this problem can be alleviated in
our algorithm and the runtime is proportional to the number of the steps of the
algorithm, provided certain conditions are satisfied. We have tested the
algorithm for some continuous test functions.
