Title:
When a local Hamiltonian must be frustration free

Speaker:
Chris Laumann

Abstract:
A broad range of quantum optimization problems can be phrased as the question of whether a specific system has a ground state at zero energy, i.e., whether its Hamiltonian is frustration-free or `satisfiable'. Frustration-free Hamiltonians, in turn, play a central role for constructing and understanding new phases of matter in quantum many-body physics.
