摘要:

量子计算机已被提议作为高效求解非线性微分方程(DEs)的解决方案,这是跨多个技术和科学领域的基础任务。然而,实现这一目标的关键里程碑是设计硬件感知的协议,有效利用有限的可用量子资源。我们在此聚焦于源自科学机器学习的具有前景的变分方法:可微量子电路(DQC),特别关注其在电路评估次数方面的成本。减少量子电路评估次数在混合量子/经典协议中尤为有价值,因为在每个周期中,与量子硬件接口并运行所需的时间可能比相对廉价的经典后处理开销更能影响总墙钟时间。在此,我们提出并测试了两种用于求解非线性微分方程的样本高效协议,在量子电路评估中实现了指数级节省。这些协议基于重新设计从DQC中提取信息的方式,采用“先测量”方法,通过引入类似于随机测量工具箱(即经典阴影)的工程化成本算子。在一维和二维微分方程的基准模拟中,我们报告了电路评估次数最多减少约100倍。因此,我们的协议有望利用现有量子硬件解锁更大、更具挑战性的非线性微分方程演示。

英文摘要:

Quantum computers have been proposed as a solution for efficiently solving non-linear differential equations (DEs), a fundamental task across diverse technological and scientific domains. However, a crucial milestone in this regard is to design protocols that are hardware-aware, making efficient use of limited available quantum resources. We focus here on promising variational methods derived from scientific machine learning: differentiable quantum circuits (DQC), addressing specifically their cost in number of circuit evaluations. Reducing the number of quantum circuit evaluations is particularly valuable in hybrid quantum/classical protocols, where the time required to interface and run quantum hardware at each cycle can impact the total wall-time much more than relatively inexpensive classical post-processing overhead. Here, we propose and test two sample-efficient protocols for solving non-linear DEs, achieving exponential savings in quantum circuit evaluations. These protocols are based on redesigning the extraction of information from DQC in a ``measure-first" approach, by introducing engineered cost operators similar to the randomized-measurement toolbox (i.e. classical shadows). In benchmark simulations on one and two-dimensional DEs, we report up to $\sim$ 100 fold reductions in circuit evaluations. Our protocols thus hold the promise to unlock larger and more challenging non-linear differential equation demonstrations with existing quantum hardware.
