In this course we will cover combinatorial optimization problems and quantum approaches to solve them. In particular, we will cover adiabatic quantum computing and how to derive the quantum approximate optimization algorithm also known as QAOA from it. We will end with a short discussion on some of the aspects to consider when executing such algorithms on superconducting qubits.
