Until now, many theoretical works studied the performance of quantum algorithms for models with a unique ground state. However, when the classical problem is in a so-called clustering phase, the ground state manifold is highly degenerate. As an example, we consider a 3-XORSAT model defined on simple hypergraphs. The degeneracy of classical ground state manifold translates into the emergence of an extensive number of Z2 symmetries, which remain intact even in the presence of a quantum transverse magnetic field. We establish a general duality approach that restricts the quantum problem to a given sector of conserved Z2 charges and use it to study how the outcome of the quantum adiabatic algorithm depends on the hypergraph geometry. We show that the tree hypergraph which corresponds to a classically solvable instance of the 3-XORSAT problem features a constant gap, whereas the closed hypergraph encounters a second-order phase transition with a gap vanishing as a power-law in the problem size. The duality developed in this work provides a practical tool for studies of quantum models with classically degenerate energy manifold and reveals potential connections between glasses and gauge theories."}],"volume":104,"oa":1,"_id":"10545","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Physical Review A","publication_status":"published","project":[{"_id":"23841C26-32DE-11EA-91FC-C7463DDC885E","grant_number":"850899","name":"Non-Ergodic Quantum Matter: Universality, Dynamics and Control","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.06344"}],"title":"Duality approach to quantum annealing of the 3-variable exclusive-or satisfiability problem (3-XORSAT)","quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"ieee":"R.
