Abstract
Quantum simulation is a foundational application for quantum computers, projected to offer insights into complex quantum systems beyond the reach of classical computation. However, with the exception of Trotter-based methods, which suffer from suboptimal scaling with respect to simulation precision, existing simulation techniques are, for the most part, too intricate to implement on early fault-tolerant quantum hardware. We propose a quantum Hamiltonian dynamics simulation algorithm that aims to be both straightforward to implement and, at the same time, have near-optimal scaling in simulation precision.
期刊介绍:
Driven by advances in technology and experimental capability, the last decade has seen the emergence of quantum technology: a new praxis for controlling the quantum world. It is now possible to engineer complex, multi-component systems that merge the once distinct fields of quantum optics and condensed matter physics.
Quantum Science and Technology is a new multidisciplinary, electronic-only journal, devoted to publishing research of the highest quality and impact covering theoretical and experimental advances in the fundamental science and application of all quantum-enabled technologies.
