New QUBO formulation improves currency arbitrage detection with fewer qubits

Researchers have developed a more resource-efficient Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) formulation for currency arbitrage detection. This new method incorporates realistic constraints like starting cycles from a specific currency and accounting for trading fees, requiring fewer logical variables than previous QUBO encodings. The formulation includes an exact anchor-gauge reweighting of exchange rates to address hardware precision limitations. Benchmarking against classical simulated annealing and prior QUBO methods demonstrated its effectiveness in finding profitable, fee-adjusted cycles. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient algorithms for financial modeling and optimization problems, potentially impacting algorithmic trading strategies.

    Resource-Efficient QUBO Formulation for Anchored Currency Arbitrage

    arXiv:2608.15889v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Currency arbitrage (CA) involves trading currencies in cycles to exploit discrepancies in market valuations. Quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) involves minimizing a quadratic cost (energy) function of binary varia…
