Several platforms are currently being explored for simulating physical systems whose complexity increases faster than polynomially with the number of particles or degrees of freedom in the system. Many of these computationally intractable problems can be mapped into classical spin models such as the Ising and the XY models and be simulated by a suitable physical system. In my talk I will investigate the potential of polariton graphs as an efficient simulator for finding the global minimum of the classical XY Hamiltonian.
