Abstract
A hybrid quantum-classical (HQC) computing system, including a quantum computing component and a classical computing component, computes the inverse of a Boolean function for a given output. The HQC computing system translates a set of constraints into interactions between quantum spins; forms, from the interactions, an Ising Hamiltonian whose ground state encodes a set of states of a specific input value that are consistent with the set of constraints; performs, on the quantum computing component, a quantum optimization algorithm to generate an approximation to the ground state of the Ising Hamiltonian; and measures the approximation to the ground state of the Ising Hamiltonian, on the quantum computing component, to obtain a plurality of input bits which are a satisfying assignment of the set of constraints.
