• Abstract summary: We apply the iterative qubit coupled cluster (iQCC) method on classical hardware to the calculation of the transition energies in nine phosphorescent iridium complexes. Our simulations would require a gate-based quantum computer with a minimum of 72 fully-connected and error-corrected logical qubits. The iQCC quantum method is found to match the accuracy of the fine-tuned DFT functionals, has a better Pearson correlation coefficient, and still has considerable potential for systematic improvement.

• Abstract: Quantum chemistry simulations that accurately predict the properties of materials are among the most highly anticipated applications of quantum computing. It is widely believed that simulations running on quantum computers will allow for higher accuracy, but there has not yet been a convincing demonstration that quantum methods are competitive with existing classical methods at scale. Here we apply the iterative qubit coupled cluster (iQCC) method on classical hardware to the calculation of the $T_1 \to S_0$ transition energies in nine phosphorescent iridium complexes, to determine if quantum simulations have any advantage over traditional computing methods. Phosphorescent iridium complexes are integral to the widespread commercialization of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology, yet accurate computational prediction of their emission energies remains a challenge. Our simulations would require a gate-based quantum computer with a minimum of 72 fully-connected and error-corrected logical qubits. Since such devices do not yet exist, we demonstrate the iQCC quantum method using a special purpose quantum simulator on classical hardware. The results are compared to a selection of common density-functional theory (DFT) functionals (B3LYP, CAM-B3LYP, LC-wHPBE), ab initio methods (HF and MP2), and experimental data. The iQCC quantum method is found to match the accuracy of the fine-tuned DFT functionals, has a better Pearson correlation coefficient, and still has considerable potential for systematic improvement. Based on these results, we anticipate that the iQCC quantum method will have the required accuracy to design organometallic complexes when deployed on emerging quantum hardware.

  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.

  Materials simulations involving strongly correlated electrons pose fundamental challenges to state-of-the-art electronic structure methods. No quantum computer has simulated a molecule of a size and complexity relevant to real-world applications, despite the fact that the variational quantum eigensolver algorithm can predict chemically accurate total energies. We show that the inclusion of d-orbitals and the use of the UCCSD ansatz, which are both necessary to capture the correct TiH physics, dramatically increase the cost of this problem.
