• Abstract: The simulation of time evolution of large quantum systems is a classically challenging and in general intractable task, making it a promising application for quantum computation. A Trotter-Suzuki approximation yields an implementation thereof, where a higher approximation accuracy can be traded for an increased gate count. In this work, we introduce a variational algorithm which uses solutions of classical optimizations to predict efficient quantum circuits for time evolution of translationally invariant quantum systems. Our strategy can improve upon the Trotter-Suzuki accuracy by several orders of magnitude. It translates into a reduction in gate count and hence gain in overall fidelity at the same algorithmic accuracy. This is important in NISQ-applications where the fidelity of the output state decays exponentially with the number of gates. The performance advantage of our classical assisted strategy can be extended to open boundaries with translational symmetry in the bulk. We can extrapolate our method to beyond classically simulatable system sizes, maintaining its total fidelity advantage over a Trotter-Suzuki approximation making it an interesting candidate for beyond classical time evolution.

  Given a quantum circuit containing d tunable RZ gates and G-d Clifford gates, can a learner perform purely classical inference to efficiently predict its linear properties? We prove that the sample complexity scaling linearly in d is necessary and sufficient to achieve a small prediction error, while the corresponding computational complexity may scale exponentially in d. We devise a kernel-based learning model capable of trading off prediction error and computational complexity, transitioning from exponential to scaling in many practical settings.

  A leading paradigm to establish such near-term quantum applications is variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) We prove that for a broad class of such random circuits, the variation range of the cost function vanishes exponentially in the number of qubits with a high probability. This result can unify the restrictions on gradient-based and gradient-free optimizations in a natural manner and reveal extra harsh constraints on the training landscapes of VQAs.
