abstract = {We report a proof-of-principle implementation of the quantum approximate 

optimization algorithm (QAOA) for the smallest nontrivial MAX-CUT instance 

on an NV-center-based quantum processor operating at room temperature. The 

two-qubit register is encoded in the electron spin and the 

(^14mathrmN) nuclear spin of a single NV(^-) center. Using a 

minimization formulation of MAX-CUT, we implement a single-layer QAOA 

ansatz with native entangling and single-qubit control operations. Because 

the optical readout of the NV(^-) center is not projective in the 

computational basis, we reconstruct computational-basis populations from 

averaged fluorescence signals and use them to determine the experimental 

QAOA cost landscape by scanning the variational parameters. These results 

show that the core elements of QAOA can be realized on this platform and 

establish a baseline for future improvements in phase tracking, 

coherence-preserving control, and scaling to larger problem sizes.},
