The Short Path Algorithm Applied to a Toy Model

We numerically investigate the performance of the short path optimization algorithm on a toy problem, with the potential chosen to depend only on the total Hamming weight to allow simulation of larger systems.We consider classes of potentials with Wraps multiple minima which cause the adiabatic algorithm to experience difficulties with small gaps.T
