Abstract
En 中文
We introduce a novel hybrid algorithm to simulate the real-time evolution of quantum systems using parameterized quantum circuits. The method, named projected - Variational Quantum Dynamics (p-VQD) realizes an iterative, global projection of the exact time evolution onto the parameterized manifold. In the small time step limit, this is equivalent to the McLachlan's variational principle. Our approach is efficient in the sense that it exhibits an optimal linear scaling with the total number of variational parameters. Furthermore, it is global in the sense that it uses the variational principle to optimize all parameters at once. The global nature of our approach then significantly extends the scope of existing efficient variational methods, that instead typically rely on the iterative optimisation of a restricted subset of variational parameters. Through numerical experiments, we also show that our approach is particularly advantageous over existing global optimisation algorithms based on the time-dependent variational principle that, due to a demanding quadratic scaling with parameter numbers, are unsuitable for large parameterized quantum circuits.
