Researchers have developed a novel quantum algorithm, CTPQsd#, designed to count the global optima of classical optimization problems. This algorithm leverages a perturbative relationship between the decoherence measure of a small probe and the degeneracy of the problem when both are in a canonical thermal pure quantum (CTPQ) state. Numerical simulations have demonstrated the algorithm's ability to accurately count global minima and identify near-degenerate minima within a specified energy tolerance, by confining measurements to a four-qubit probe.
