Plans for the week of February 26-March 1
Dear all, our plans this week are
-
Reminder on basics of the VQE method and how to perform measurements for the simpler one- and two-qubit Hamiltonians
-
Simulating efficiently Hamiltonians on quantum computers with the VQE method and gradient descent to optimize the state function ansatz
-
Work on project 1. Here we will discuss the codes for the simple one-qubit Hamiltonian as well as the codes for the Bell states. These codes, plus an intro to qiskit and this week's jupyter-notebook are all at https://github.com/CompPhysics/QuantumComputingMachineLearning/tree/gh-pages/doc/pub/week7/ipynb
-
Reading suggestion, VQE review article, see https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0370157322003118?via%3Dihub for the explicit link.
The second half of the second lecture this week will be devoted to work on project 1. Next week we will introduce the final Hamiltonian model, the so-called Lipkin and discuss how we can implement this in project 1.
By next week we should have all information which is needed for project 1.
Best wishes to you all,
Keran, Morten and Ruben
