Emergency hub placement with a neutral-atom quantum computer
We study the problem of emergency operation center placement in disaster response, where a minimal number of hubs must be selected to ensure timely coverage of all affected locations. This task can be formulated as a minimum dominating set problem on a graph encoding reachability within a target response time. We …
Drone delivery packing problem on a neutral-atom quantum computer
Advanced Quantum Technologies, 2026
Quantum architectures based on neutral atoms have gained significant attention in recent years as specialized computational machines due to their ability to directly encode the independent set constraint on graphs, exploiting the Rydberg blockade mechanism. In this work, we address the Drone Delivery Packing Problem …
