Iterative Qubit Coupled Cluster Approach with Efficient Screening of Generators
Open accessAbstract
An iterative version of the qubit coupled cluster (QCC) method [I. G. Ryabinkin et al., J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2019, 14, 6317] is proposed. The new method seeks to find ground electronic energies of molecules on noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. Each iteration involves a canonical transformation of the Hamiltonian and employs constant-size quantum circuits at the expense of increasing the Hamiltonian size. We numerically studied the convergence of the method on ground-state calculations for LiH, H 2 O, and N 2 molecules and found that the exact ground-state energies can be systematically approached only if the generators of the QCC ansatz are sampled from a specific set of operators. We report an algorithm for constructing this set that scales linearly with the size of the Hamiltonian.

The number of trial circuits in certain cases can be reduced to about 5% for H2 and 10% for H2O as compared to ADAPT-VQE, using an operation pool based on the qubit coupled-cluster method.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
