• Abstract: A new concept of the molecular structure optimization method based on quantum dynamics computations is presented. Nuclei are treated as quantum mechanical particles, as are electrons, and the many-body wave function of the system is optimized by the imaginary time evolution method. A demonstration with a 2-dimensional H$^+_2$ molecule shows that the optimized nuclear positions can be specified with a small number of observations. This method is considered to be suitable for quantum computers, the development of which will realize its application as a powerful method.

  We propose a nonvariational scheme for geometry optimization of molecules for the first-quantized eigensolver. We encode both electronic states and candidate molecular geometries as a superposition of many-qubit states. We show that the circuit depth scales as O (n_e2 poly(log n_e)) for the electron number n_e, which can be reduced to O (n_e poly(log n_e)) if extra O (n_e log n_e) qubits are available.
