Original abstract

Quantum Max Cut, also known as the anti-ferromagnetic Heisenberg Hamiltonian, is a QMA-complete problem which serves as a benchmark for approximation algorithms in quantum physics. Here we develop a hybrid approximation algorithm to quantum Max Cut, which uses the natural quantum dynamics of Rydberg atom systems in combination with semidefinite programming and randomized rounding. It achieves a conditional approximation ratio of $0.651$, compared to the best-known ratio of $0.614$ that relies on semidefinite programming alone. The algorithm is robust in the sense that the advantage persists even if the annealing procedure of the Rydberg atom system obtains a state whose energy is only $89\%$ of its true ground state energy. Our approach opens a new route for hybrid quantum-classical algorithms that combine quantum with classical optimization methods.
