uses the to solve problems through slow, continuous evolution of quantum systems. It's based on keeping a system in its while gradually changing the , encoding the problem solution in the final ground state.
AQC differs from circuit-based quantum computing, using continuous evolution instead of discrete gates. Both harness quantum superposition and , but AQC encodes problems in Hamiltonian structures, potentially offering more robustness against certain errors.

Adiabatic quantum computation (AQC) employs quantum adiabatic theorem for problem-solving leverages slow, continuous evolution of quantum systems
Quantum adiabatic theorem governs AQC ensures system remains in ground state during slow Hamiltonian changes
Ground state evolution forms basis of computation encodes problem solution
Hamiltonian engineering crucial for AQC designs initial and final Hamiltonians to represent problem and solution
(Hi) represents simple, known ground state (often transverse field)
(Hf) encodes problem to be solved ground state corresponds to optimal solution
(H(t)) interpolates between Hi and Hf defines evolution path
AQC process involves system preparation in Hi ground state, gradual transformation to Hf, and final state measurement
