Quantifying the effect of gate errors on variational quantum eigensolvers for quantum chemistry

Kieran Dalton, Christopher K. Long, Yordan S. Yordanov +4

Variational quantum eigensolvers (VQEs) are leading candidates to demonstrate near-term quantum advantage. Here, we conduct density-matrix simulations of leading gate-based VQEs fo…

Efficient Parabolic Optimisation Algorithm for adaptive VQE implementations

V. Armaos, Dimitrios A. Badounas, Paraskevas Deligiannis +2

Computational chemistry is one of the most promising applications of quantum computing, mostly thanks to the development of the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) algorithm. VQE…

Molecular excited state calculations with the QEB-ADAPT-VQE

Yordan S. Yordanov, Crispin H. W. Barnes, David R. M. Arvidsson-Shukur

Calculations of molecular spectral properties, like photodissociation rates and absorption bands, rely on knowledge of the excited state energies of the molecule of interest. Proto…

Invariant subspaces of two-qubit quantum gates and their application in the verification of quantum computers

Yordan S. Yordanov, Jacob Chevalier-Drori, Thierry Ferrus +2

We investigate the groups generated by the sets of , and (power-of-SWAP) quantum gate operations acting on qubits. Isomorphisms to standard groups are found…

Efficient quantum circuits for quantum computational chemistry

Yordan S. Yordanov, David R. M. Arvidsson-Shukur, Crispin H. W. Barnes

Molecular quantum simulations with the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) rely on ansatz states that approximate the molecular ground states. These ansatz states are generally d…

Implementation of a general single-qubit positive operator-valued measure on a circuit-based quantum computer

Yordan S. Yordanov, Crispin H. W. Barnes

We derive a deterministic protocol to implement a general single-qubit POVM on near-term circuit-based quantum computers. The protocol has a modular structure, such that an -ele…
