    "## Overview\n",
    "\n",
    "In the [tutorial on Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm](./QAOA_EN.ipynb), we talked about how to encode a classical combinatorial optimization problem into a quantum optimization problem and slove it with Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm [1] (QAOA). In this tutorial, we will take the Max-Cut Problem as an example to further elaborate on QAOA.\n",

    "### Max-Cut Problem\n",
    "\n",
    "The Max-Cut Problem is a common combinatorial optimization problem in graph theory, and it has important applications in statistical physics and circuit design. The maximum cut problem is an NP-hard problem, so there is no efficient algorithm that can solve this problem perfectly.\n",
    "\n",
    "In graph theory, a graph is represented by a pair of sets $G=(V, E)$, where the elements in the set $V$ are the vertices of the graph, and each element in the set $E$ is a pair of vertices, representing an edge connecting these two vertices. For example, the graph in the figure below is represented by $V=\\{0,1,2,3\\}$ and $E=\\{(0,1),(1,2),(2,3),(3, 0)\\}$.\n",
    "\n",
    "![G](figures/maxcut-fig-maxcut_g.png \"Figure 1: A graph with four vertices and four edges\")\n",
    "<div style=\"text-align:center\">Figure 1: A graph with four vertices and four edges </div>\n",
    "\n",
    "A cut on a graph refers to a partition of the graph's vertex set $V$ into two disjoint sets. Each cut corresponds to a set of edges, in which the two vertices of each edge are divided into different sets. So we can define the size of this cut as the size of this set of edges, that is, the number of edges being cut. The Max-Cut Problem is to find a cut that maximizes the number of edges being cut. Figure 2 shows a maximum cut of the graph in Figure 1. The size of the maximum cut is $4$, which means that all edges in the graph are cut.\n",
    "\n",
    "![Max cut on G](figures/maxcut-fig-maxcut_cut.png \"Figure 2: A maximum cut of the graph in Figure 1\")\n",
    "<div style=\"text-align:center\">Figure 2: A maximum cut of the graph in Figure 1 </div>\n",
    "\n",
    "Assuming that the input graph $G=(V, E)$ has $n=|V|$ vertices and $m=|E|$ edges, we can describe the Max-Cut Problem as a combinatorial optimization problem with $n$ bits and $m$ clauses. Each bit corresponds to a vertex $v$ in the graph $G$, and its value $z_v$ is $0$ or $1$, corresponding to the vertex belonging to the set $S_{0}$ or $S_{1}$, respectively. Thus, each value $z$ of these $n$ bits corresponds to a distinct cut. Each clause corresponds to an edge $(u,v)$ in the graph $G$. A clause requires that the two vertices connected by its corresponding edge take different values, namely $z_u\\neq z_v$, which means the edge is cut. In other words, when the two vertices connected by the edge are divided into different sets, we say that the clause is satisfied. Therefore, for each edge $(u,v)$ in the graph $G$, we have\n",
    "\n",
    "$$\n",
    "C_{(u,v)}(z) = z_u+z_v-2z_uz_v,\n",
    "\\tag{1}\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\n",
    "where $C_{(u,v)}(z) = 1$ if and only if the edge is cut. Otherwise, the function is equal to $0$. The objective function of the entire combinatorial optimization problem is\n",
    "\n",
    "$$\n",
    "C(z) = \\sum_{(u,v)\\in E}C_{(u,v)}(z) = \\sum_{(u,v)\\in E}z_u+z_v-2z_uz_v.\n",
    "\\tag{2}\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\n",
    "Therefore, to solve the maximum cut problem is to find a value $z$ that maximizes the objective function in equation (2).\n",
    "\n",
    "### Encoding Max-Cut Problem\n",
    "\n",
    "Here we take the Max-Cut Problem as an example to further elaborate on QAOA. In order to transform the Max-Cut Problem into a quantum problem, we need to use $n$ qubits, where each qubit corresponds to a vertex in the graph $G$. A qubit being in a quantum state $|0\\rangle$ or $|1\\rangle$ indicates that its corresponding vertex belongs to the set $S_{0}$ or $S_{1}$, respectively. It is worth noting that $|0\\rangle$ and $|1\\rangle$ are the two eigenstates of Pauli $Z$ gate, and their eigenvalues are respectively $1$ and $-1$, namely\n",
    "\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\\begin{align}\n",
    "Z|0\\rangle&=|0\\rangle,\\tag{3}\\\\\n",
    "Z|1\\rangle&=-|1\\rangle.\\tag{4}\n",
    "\\end{align}\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\n",
    "Therefore, we can use Pauli $Z$ gate to construct the Hamiltonian $H_C$ of the Max-Cut Problem. Because mapping $f(x):x\\to(x+1)/2$ maps $-1$ to $0$ and $1$ to $1$, we can replace $z$ in equation (2) with $(Z+I)/2$ ($I$ is the identity matrix) to get the Hamiltonian corresponding to the objective function of the original problem:\n",
    "\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\\begin{align}\n",
    "H_C &= \\sum_{(u,v)\\in E} \\frac{Z_u+I}{2} + \\frac{Z_v+I}{2}-2\\cdot\\frac{Z_u+I}{2} \\frac{Z_v+I}{2}\\tag{5}\\\\\n",
    "&= \\sum_{(u,v)\\in E} \\frac{Z_u+Z_v+2I-(Z_uZ_v+Z_u+Z_v+I)}{2}\\tag{6}\\\\\n",
    "&= \\sum_{(u,v)\\in E} \\frac{I-Z_uZ_v}{2}.\\tag{7}\n",
    "\\end{align}\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\n",
    "The expected value of this Hamiltonian for a quantum state $|\\psi\\rangle$ is\n",
    "\n",
    "$$\n",
    "\\begin{align}\n",
    "\\langle\\psi|H_C|\\psi\\rangle &= \\langle\\psi|\\sum_{(u,v)\\in E} \\frac{I-Z_uZ_v}{2}|\\psi\\rangle\\tag{8} \\\\\n",
    "&= \\langle\\psi|\\sum_{(u,v)\\in E} \\frac{I}{2}|\\psi\\rangle-\\langle\\psi|\\sum_{(u,v)\\in E} \\frac{Z_uZ_v}{2}|\\psi\\rangle\\tag{9}\\\\\n",

    "then finding the quantum state $|\\psi\\rangle$ that maximizes $\\langle\\psi|H_C|\\psi\\rangle$ is equivalent to finding the quantum state $|\\psi\\rangle$ such that $\\langle\\psi|H_D|\\psi \\rangle$ is the largest."

    "Earlier we introduced that QAOA needs to apply two unitary transformations $U_C(\\gamma)$ and $U_B(\\beta)$ alternately on the initial state $|s\\rangle = |+\\rangle^{\\otimes n}$. Here, we use the quantum gates and quantum circuit templates provided in Paddle Quantum to build a quantum circuit to achieve this step. It should be noted that in the Max-Cut Problem, we simplify the problem of maximizing the expected value of the Hamiltonian $H_C$ to the problem of maximizing the expected value of the Hamiltonian $H_D$, so the unitary transformations to be used are $U_D(\\gamma)$ and $U_B(\\beta)$. By alternately placing two circuit modules with adjustable parameters, we are able to build a QAOA circuit\n",

    "where $U_D(\\gamma) = e^{-i\\gamma H_D}$ can be constructed with the circuit in the figure below. Another unitary transformation $U_B(\\beta)$ is equivalent to applying a $R_x$ gate to each qubit.\n",

    "In Paddle Quantum, the default initial state of each qubit is $|0\\rangle$ (the initial state can be customized by input parameters). We can add a layer of Hadamard gates to change the state of each qubit from $|0\\rangle$ to $|+\\rangle$ so that we get the initial state $|s\\rangle = |+\\rangle^{\\otimes n}$ required by QAOA. In Paddle Quantum, we can add a layer of Hadamard gates to the quantum circuit by calling `superposition_layer()`."
