Resource-efficient energy-based operator selection in fermionic ADAPT-VQE via exact Hamiltonian transformation

Emanuele Rossi, Erik Rosendahl Kjellgren, Artur F. Izmaylov +3

The energy-based approach to operator selection in ADAPT-VQE relies on reconstructing the one-parameter energy landscape for each operator in the pool. In fermionic implementations…
