Annealing dynamics of regular rotor networks: Universality and its breakdown by András Grabarits, Gaetano Sammartino, Adolfo del Campo

“…The spin-vector Langevin (SVL) model has been proposed and tested as an alternative, closely reproducing the real-time dynamics of physical quantum annealers such as D-Wave machines in the dissipative regime. We investigate the SVL annealing dynamics of classical O(2) rotors on regular graphs, identifying universal features in the nonequilibrium dynamics when changing the range of interactions and the topology of the graph. …”
