Title
Meet the Quantum Natural Gradient with Momentum (Momentum-QNG) Optimizer

Abstract
In this demo we introduce our new Momentum-QNG optimization algorithm. We demonstrate its performance by optimizing the ground state energy of 8-qubit quantum Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model with VQE ansatz. We benchmark it together with the Momentum and basic QNG optimizers.

Relevant links
Add a link to your demo (as a GitHub repository, Jupyter notebook, Python script, etc.) as well as links to any papers/resources used.

Thanks @borbysh ! This looks amazing.

We'll do an internal review and get back to you within a week or so with next steps. Congrats!

This looks brilliant, @borbysh , congrats! :)

Could I ask you for a couple of small things?

  1. Could you use "PennyLane" instead of "Pennylane" in the Demo? 😅
  2. Do you and your coauthors (or your institute? 😉) have Twitter or LinkedIn accounts? We can link to them from the PennyLane accounts, if you'd like.

I repared "PennyLane" and added some LinkedIn accounts. Now some author names are clickable

Thanks a lot, @borbysh !
I'll make sure it's live soon (either today or on Monday), and our marketing team will tag you next week as well. :)

Well done — I hope lots of people see it!
