We give numerical evidence using matrix-product-state simulations that it can optimally solve the Max-Cut problem. Extrapolating our numerical results, we estimate the resources needed for a quantum computer to compete with classical exact or approximate solvers.

• Abstract: According to the adiabatic theorem of quantum mechanics, a system initially in the ground state of a Hamiltonian remains in the ground state if one slowly changes the Hamiltonian. This can be used in principle to solve hard problems on quantum computers. Generically, however, implementation of this Hamiltonian dynamics on digital quantum computers requires scaling Trotter step size with system size and simulation time, which incurs a large gate count. In this work, we argue that for classical optimization problems, the adiabatic evolution can be performed with a fixed, finite Trotter step. This "Floquet adiabatic evolution" reduces by several orders of magnitude the gate count compared to the usual, continuous-time adiabatic evolution. We give numerical evidence using matrix-product-state simulations that it can optimally solve the Max-Cut problem on $3$-regular graphs in a large number of instances, with surprisingly low runtime, even with bond dimensions as low as $D=2$. Extrapolating our numerical results, we estimate the resources needed for a quantum computer to compete with classical exact or approximate solvers for this specific problem.

  We show that quantum annealing for 3-regular graphs can be classically simulated even at scales of 1000 qubits and 5000000qubit gates. For non-degenerate instances, the unique solution can be read out from the final reduced single-qubit states. For degenerate problems, such as MaxCut, we introduce an approximate measurement simulation algorithm for graph tensor-network states.

Our algorithm can be potentially useful on a more general level whenever time discretization is involved concerning, for instance, also numerical approaches based on time-evolving block decimation methods.
