• Abstract: We propose a novel method to sequentially optimize arbitrary single-qubit gates in parameterized quantum circuits for simulating real and imaginary time evolution. The method utilizes full degrees of freedom of single-qubit gates and therefore can potentially obtain better performance. Specifically, it simultaneously optimizes both the axis and the angle of a single-qubit gate, while the known methods either optimize the angle with the axis fixed, or vice versa. It generalizes the known methods and utilizes sinusoidal cost functions parameterized by the axis and angle of rotation. Furthermore, we demonstrate how it can be extended to optimize a set of parameterized two-qubit gates with excitation-conservation constraints, which includes the Hop and the Reconfigurable Beam Splitter gates. We perform numerical experiments showing the power of the proposed method to find ground states of typical Hamiltonians with quantum imaginary time evolution using parameterized quantum circuits. In addition, we show the method can be applied to real time evolution and discuss the tradeoff between its simulation accuracy and hardware efficiency.

  The Quantum Approximate optimisation algorithm is a $p$ layer, time-variable split operator method executed on a quantum processor. We prove that optimal parameters for $p=1$ layer reduce to one free variable and in the thermodynamic limit, we recover optimal angles. We moreover demonstrate that conditions for vanishing gradients of the overlap function share a similar form which leads to a linear relation between circuit parameters, independent on the number of qubits.

  Variational quantum algorithms, which utilize Parametrized Quantum Circuits (PQCs), are promising tools to achieve quantum advantage for optimization problems on near-term quantum devices. We propose a method to construct a PQC by continuous parametrization of both the angles and the axes of its single-qubit rotation gates. We show the simplified free-axis selection method has better expressibility against other structural optimization methods when measured with Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence.
