Despite extensive research efforts, few quantum algorithms for classical optimization demonstrate a realizable quantum advantage. The utility of many quantum algorithms is limited by high requisite circuit depth and nonconvex optimization landscapes. We tackle these challenges by introducing a variational quantum algorithm that benefits from two innovations: multibasis graph encodings using single-qubit expectation values and nonlinear activation functions. Our technique results in increased observed optimization performance and a factor-of-two reduction in requisite qubits. While the classical simulation of many qubits with traditional quantum formalism is impossible due to its exponential scaling, we mitigate this limitation with exact circuit representations using factorized tensor rings. In particular, the shallow circuits permitted by our technique, combined with efficient factorized tensor-based simulation, enable us to successfully optimize the MaxCut of the 512-vertex DIMACS library graphs on a single GPU. By improving the performance of quantum optimization algorithms while requiring fewer quantum resources and utilizing shallower, more error-resistant circuits, we offer tangible progress for variational quantum optimization.
