Abstract
En 中文
We present the implementation of a fragment-based, quantum-centric supercomputing workflow for computing molecular electronic structure using quantum hardware. The workflow is applied to predict the relative energies of two conformers of the 303-atom Trp-cage miniprotein. The methodology employs wave function–based embedding (EWF) as the underlying fragmentation framework, in which all atoms in the system are explicitly included in the configuration interaction (CI) simulations. We employ sample-based quantum diagonalization (SQD) solver for challenging fragments and full configuration interaction (FCI) solver for trivial fragments. The EWF-(FCI,SQD) results are compared against EWF-MP2 and EWF-CCSD benchmarks. The impact of fragmentation on the predicted relative energies of the Trp-cage conformers is further evaluated by comparison with unfragmented RI-MP2 and DLPNO-CCSD calculations. The results demonstrate that large-scale electronic configuration interaction (CI) simulations of protein systems containing hundreds or even thousands of atoms can be realized through the combined use of quantum and classical computing resources.
