Adiabatically implementing quantum gates
Jie Sun, Songfeng Lu, Fang Liu · Journal of Applied Physics · 2014
We show that, through the approach of quantum adiabatic evolution, all of the usual quantum gates can be implemented efficiently, yielding running time of order O(1). This may be considered as a useful alternative to the standard quantum computing approach, which involves quantum gates transforming quantum states during the computing process.
