The simulation of fermionic systems is among the most anticipated applications of quantum
computing. We performed several quantum simulations of chemistry with up to one dozen …

The Lie-Trotter formula, together with its higher-order generalizations, provides a direct
approach to decomposing the exponential of a sum of operators. Despite significant effort …

Practical challenges in simulating quantum systems on classical computers have been
widely recognized in the quantum physics and quantum chemistry communities over the …

We describe quantum circuits with only O~(N) Toffoli complexity that block encode the
spectra of quantum chemistry Hamiltonians in a basis of N arbitrary (eg, molecular) orbitals …

One of the most promising suggested applications of quantum computing is solving
classically intractable chemistry problems. This may help to answer unresolved questions …

The promise of quantum computers is that certain computational tasks might be executed
exponentially faster on a quantum processor than on a classical processor 1. A fundamental …

Many experimental proposals for noisy intermediate scale quantum devices involve training
a parameterized quantum circuit with a classical optimization loop. Such hybrid quantum …

Suppressing noise in physical systems is of fundamental importance. As quantum
computers mature, quantum error correcting codes (QECs) will be adopted in order to …
