Error Propagation in NISQ Devices for Solving Classical Optimization Problems

We propose a random circuit model that attempts to capture the behavior of noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices when used for variationally solving classical optimization problems. Our model accounts for the propagation of arbitrary single-qubit errors through the circuit. We find that, even wit...
