Accuracy and resource advantages of quantum eigenvalue estimation with non-Hermitian transcorrelated electronic Hamiltonians

Alexey Uvarov, Artur F. Izmaylov

In electronic structure calculations, the transcorrelated method consists in transforming the Hamiltonian so as to remove the Coulomb cusp in its eigenfunctions. As a result, the w…
