摘要:

变分量子算法(VQA)的一个核心组成部分是状态准备电路,也被称为变分形式。该电路通常被设计为尊重问题哈密尔顿算子的对称性,并且以这种方式将变分搜索约束到感兴趣的子空间。在这里,我们表明,这种方法并不总是有利的,通过引入ansätze,纳入破幺正。这类ansätze,我们称之为量子最优控制启发的Ansätze(QOCA),受到量子最优控制理论的启发,并导致一些重要问题的VQA的收敛性得到改善。事实上,我们基准QOCA对流行的ansätze应用到费米-哈伯德模型在半填充,并表明我们的变分电路可以近似的基态,这个模型具有显着更高的精度和更大的系统。我们还展示了如何QOCA可以用来找到水分子的基态,并比较我们的anterior对其他常见的选择用于化学问题的性能。这项工作构成了第一步的发展更普遍的类的破障ansätze与应用程序的物理和化学问题。

英文摘要:

A central component of variational quantum algorithms (VQA) is the state-preparation circuit, also known as ansatz or variational form. This circuit is most commonly designed to respect the symmetries of the problem Hamiltonian and, in this way, constrain the variational search to a subspace of interest. Here, we show that this approach is not always advantageous by introducing ansätze that incorporate symmetry-breaking unitaries. This class of ansätze, that we call Quantum-Optimal-Control-inspired Ansätze (QOCA), is inspired by the theory of quantum optimal control and leads to an improved convergence of VQAs for some important problems. Indeed, we benchmark QOCA against popular ansätze applied to the Fermi-Hubbard model at half-filling and show that our variational circuits can approximate the ground state of this model with significantly higher accuracy and for larger systems. We also show how QOCA can be used to find the ground state of the water molecule and compare the performance of our ansatz against other common choices used for chemistry problems. This work constitutes a first step towards the development of a more general class of symmetry-breaking ansätze with applications to physics and chemistry problems.
