摘要:

原子尺度上的量子计算算法和实验的发展主要集中在分子的量子化学上,而在凝聚态系统中的应用还很少。在这里,我们提出了一个量子算法来执行动态平均场论(DMFT)计算凝聚态系统上目前可用的量子计算机,并证明它在两个量子硬件平台。DMFT需要恰当地描述具有强关联电子的大类材料。计算上具有挑战性的部分来自于解决耦合到浴槽的相互作用杂质的有效问题,该问题在传统计算机上随系统大小呈指数级变化。在量子计算机上预计会有指数级的加速,但到目前为止提出的算法都是基于波函数的实时演化,这需要高深度的电路,因此量子硬件中的噪声水平非常低。在这里,我们提出了一种替代方法,它使用的变分量子本征求解器(VQE)方法的基态和激发态,以获得所需的数量作为一个精确的对角化杂质求解器的一部分。我们提出了一个两个站点的DMFT系统,我们基准使用传统计算机上的模拟以及超导和捕获离子量子位的实验,表明这种方法是适合于运行DMFT计算在当前可用的量子硬件。

英文摘要:

The developments of quantum computing algorithms and experiments for atomic scale simulations have largely focused on quantum chemistry for molecules, while their application in condensed matter systems is scarcely explored. Here we present a quantum algorithm to perform dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) calculations for condensed matter systems on currently available quantum computers, and demonstrate it on two quantum hardware platforms. DMFT is required to properly describe the large class of materials with strongly correlated electrons. The computationally challenging part arises from solving the effective problem of an interacting impurity coupled to a bath, which scales exponentially with system size on conventional computers. An exponential speedup is expected on quantum computers, but the algorithms proposed so far are based on real time evolution of the wavefunction, which requires high-depth circuits and hence very low noise levels in the quantum hardware. Here we propose an alternative approach, which uses the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) method for ground and excited states to obtain the needed quantities as part of an exact diagonalization impurity solver. We present the algorithm for a two site DMFT system, which we benchmark using simulations on conventional computers as well as experiments on superconducting and trapped ion qubits, demonstrating that this method is suitable for running DMFT calculations on currently available quantum hardware.
