Benchmarking variational quantum eigensolvers for the square-octagon-lattice Kitaev model

Quantum spin systems may offer the first opportunities for beyond-classical quantum computations of scientific interest. While general quantum simulation algorithms likely require error-corrected qubits, there may be applications of scientific interest prior to the practical implementation of quantum error correction. The variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) is a promising approach to finding energy eigenvalues on noisy quantum computers. Lattice models are of broad interest for use on near-term quantum hardware due to the sparsity of the number of Hamiltonian terms and the possibility of matching the lattice geometry to the hardware geometry. Here, we consider the Kitaev spin model on a hardware-native square-octagon qubit connectivity map, and examine the possibility of efficiently probing its rich phase diagram with VQE approaches. By benchmarking different choices of variational Ansatz states and classical optimizers, we illustrate the advantage of a mixed optimization approach using the Hamiltonian variational Ansatz (HVA) and the potential of probing the system's phase diagram using VQE. We further demonstrate the implementation of HVA circuits on Rigetti's Aspen-9 chip with error mitigation.

For near-term quantum computer, Quantum Error Mitigation (QEM) has recently attracted attention as a solution to reduce errors in quantum computers. In this paper, we introduce one of the QEM protocols, symmetry verification, and implement it using Qiskit. To check the performance, we use the VQE (Variational Quantum Eigensolver) to find the ground-state energy of hydrogen molecule (H2) on two qubits.

Variational Quantum‐Neural Hybrid Error Mitigation

Shi‐Xin Zhang, Zhou‐Quan Wan, Chang‐Yu Hsieh +2 more

Abstract Quantum error mitigation (QEM) is crucial for obtaining reliable results on quantum computers by suppressing quantum noise with moderate resources. It is a key factor for successful and practical quantum algorithm implementations in the noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) era. Since quantum‐classical hybrid algorithms can be executed with moderate and noisy quantum resources, combining QEM with quantum‐classical hybrid schemes is one of the most promising directions toward practical quantum advantages. This work shows how the variational quantum‐neural hybrid eigensolver (VQNHE) algorithm, which seamlessly combines the expressive power of a parameterized quantum circuit with a neural network, is inherently noise resilient with a unique QEM capacity, which is absent in vanilla variational quantum eigensolvers (VQE). The study carefully analyzes and elucidates the asymptotic scaling of this unique QEM capacity in VQNHE from both theoretical and experimental perspectives. Finally, a variational basis transformation is proposed for the Hamiltonian to be measured under the VQNHE framework, yielding a powerful tri‐optimization setup, dubbed as VQNHE++. VQNHE++ can further enhance the quantum‐neural hybrid expressive power and error mitigation capacity.
