Complex generalized minimal residual algorithm for iterative solution of quantum-mechanical reactive scattering equations

Complex dense matrices corresponding to the D + H2 and O + HD reactions were solved using a complex generalized minimal residual (GMRes) algorithm described by Saad and Schultz (1986) and Saad (1990). To provide a test case with a different structure, the H + H2 system was also considered. It is shown that the computational effort for solutions with the GMRes algorithm depends on the dimension of the linear system, the total energy of the scattering problem, and the accuracy criterion. In several cases with dimensions in the range 1110-5632, the GMRes algorithm outperformed the LAPACK direct solver, with speedups for the linear equation solution as large as a factor of 23.

Hardware-Efficient Quantum Optimization Layered Algorithms and Experiments

Quantum optimization algorithms, such as QAOA, that implement parametrized stochastic optimization solvers attempt to identify low-energy solutions of Ising systems by exploiting available quantum effects in noisy-intermediate scale machines. Engineering a well-performing parametrized quantum optimization circuit is indeed an exercise in balancing the trade-off between expressivity and implementation complexity. We show that, for MaxCut QAOA circuits defined on native hardware topology (Rigetti’s Aspen Quantum Processors), error-mitigation techniques recover simulated features of the noiseless theory. Moreover, we explore a design space for QAOA-like ansatze that perform well in theory as well as in hardware for fully-connected problems. We also discuss how efficient coherence and entanglement detection methods that could be coupled with quantum optimization experiments require only linear overhead in benchmarking time.
