Hybrid quantum-classical hierarchy for mitigation of decoherence and determination of excited states

Abstract: Using quantum devices supported by classical computational resources is a promising approach to quantum-enabled computation. One example of such a hybrid quantum-classical approach is the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) built to utilize quantum resources for the solution of eigenvalue problems and optimizations with minimal coherence time requirements by leveraging classical computational resources. These algorithms have been placed among the candidates for first to achieve supremacy over classical compu… Show more

“…However, this comes at the cost of an increased number of measurements, and the introduction of a wavefunction ansatz that can limit the accuracy of the simulation (although our recent approach, ADAPT-VQE, can remove the ansatz error). 8 The initial demonstration of VQE 7 was followed by several theoretical studies [9][10][11][12][13][14][15] and demonstrations on other hardware such as superconducting qubits 10,14,16 and trapped ions. 17,18 A key ingredient in VQE is the ansatz, which is implemented as a quantum circuit which constructs trial wavefunctions that are measured and then updated in a classical optimization loop.…”

“…[23] that in addition to providing a method for calculating molecular excitedstate energies the QSE could improve the accuracy of the initial VQE ground-state estimate. This is achieved through the addition of specific measurement operators which effectively increases the number of states under consideration.…”

“…[46][47][48][49][50][51] A natural way to extend it to quantum computing is to construct a basis of states and measure the corresponding matrix ele-ments with a quantum device, and later solve the associated generalized eigenvalue problem via a classical computer. 32 Compared to a fully classical approach, QSD schemes can take advantage of the ability of quantum computers to store arbitrarily complex states.…”
