Solving problems on quantum hardware faster.
Introduction & Problem
Many near-term quantum computing applications, such as simulation of molecular behavior in industries such as pharma and chemicals utilize quantum hardware to measure hamiltonian operators. The hamiltonian operator can scale to an incredibly large number of terms, creating a burden on existing quantum hardware, and requiring an abundance of measurements. This creates limitations on the practicality of the Hamiltonian as a tool within quantum computing.
Solution
Based on https://arxiv.org/pdf/1907.03358.pdf, the QuickClique solver uses a MinClique algorithm to group Hamiltonian terms together and therefore reduce the total number of measurements required for a Hamiltonian-based computation.
Submission
To be discussed in detail the presentation, but a number of implementations have been made in each of Xanadu, Dwave, IBM, and Rigetti environments.
Operating Instructions
See each respective folder for sample implementations and demonstrations of the concept.
