v1.4.0

Maintenance Update

• CI modernization: Updated all GitHub Actions to latest versions, changed cron to weekly, removed stale Slack notification job
• Documenter.jl upgrade: Migrated from 0.27 to 1.x, fixed ](@id) syntax in all doc pages
• Compat bounds widened: Relaxed pinned dependency versions (ChainRules, DocStringExtensions, NLopt, Parameters)
• Julia minimum raised: From 1.8 (EOL) to 1.10 (current LTS)
• Code quality: Removed unnecessary fully-qualified QAOA. prefixes in internal calls
• Tests: Removed broken test blocks referencing unimplemented evolve/TensorProblem
• Docs: Added fluctuation analysis page, codecov and dev-docs badges to README

v1.3.3

update (#67)

v1.3.2

Two-component schedule for tensor-problem evolution

v1.3.1

Implements arbitrary tensors when defining combinatorial optimization problems.

v1.3.0

Added a dispatch to evolve that solves the full set of ODEs instead of approximating via layered evolution.

v1.2.0

update version

v1.1.1

Fix bug in annealing method.

v1.1.0

This update includes the option to perform quantum annealing instead of the QAOA on a given problem, as well as a new structure for our docs, a new section on quantum annealing and one new example notebook.
