Machine learning assisted construction of a shallow depth dynamic ansatz for noisy quantum hardware

Abstract

-electron Hilbert space to identify the dominant high-rank excited determinants without requiring a large number of quantum measurements. These selected excited determinants are iteratively incorporated within the ansatz through their low-rank decomposition. The reduction in the number of quantum measurements and ansatz depth manifests in the robustness of our method towards hardware noise, as demonstrated through numerical applications. Furthermore, the proposed method is highly compatible with state-of-the-art neural error mitigation techniques. This resource-efficient approach is quintessential for determining spectroscopic and other molecular properties, thereby facilitating the study of emerging chemical phenomena in the near-term quantum computing framework.
