Adiabatic quantum computing is a model of quantum computation that relies on the adiabatic theorem, which states that a system will remain in its ground state if changes are made slowly enough. This approach is used to solve optimization problems by evolving the system from an easy-to-prepare initial state to a desired final state, often associated with the solution of the problem. By doing this, adiabatic quantum computing has the potential to demonstrate quantum supremacy and advantage over classical computation in specific scenarios.
congrats on reading the definition of adiabatic quantum computing. now let's actually learn it.
