Abstract

In the evolution of a quantum system subject to a non linear dissipative term of Kostin type the probability amplitudes associated to excited states of the Hamiltonian are damped; this results in a dynamic convergence toward the ground state. In this paper we discuss how dissipation can replace adiabatic evolution in the search of the ground state of a target Hamiltonian and discuss applications to Quantum Annealing.
