• Abstract summary: One approach to relieving the circuit depth requirements for VQE is to "pre-process" the electronic Hamiltonian. This often comes at the price of a substantial increase in the number of terms to measure in the similarity transformed Hamiltonian. We propose an efficient approach to sampling elements from the complete Pauli group for $N$ qubits which minimize the onset of new terms in the transformed Hamiltonian.

• Abstract: Accurately solving the electronic structure problem through the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) is hindered by the available quantum resources of current and near-term devices. One approach to relieving the circuit depth requirements for VQE is to "pre-process" the electronic Hamiltonian by a similarity transformation incorporating some degree of electronic correlation, with the remaining correlation left to be addressed by the circuit ansatz. This often comes at the price of a substantial increase in the number of terms to measure in the similarity transformed Hamiltonian. In this work, we propose an efficient approach to sampling elements from the complete Pauli group for $N$ qubits which minimize the onset of new terms in the transformed Hamiltonian, while facilitating substantial energy lowering. We benchmark the growth-mitigating generator selection technique for ground state energy estimations applied to models of the H$_4$, N$_2$ and H$_2$O molecular systems. It is found that utilizing a selection procedure which obtains the growth-minimizing generator from the set of operators with maximal energy gradient is the most competitive approach to reducing the onset of Hamiltonian terms while achieving systematic energy lowering of the reference state.

  We introduce reduced density matrix (RDM) based second order theory (PT2) as an energetic correction to electron pair approximation. The new approach takes into account the broken-pair energy contribution that is missing in pair-correlated electron simulations. On two generations of the IonQ's trapped ion quantum computers, Aria and Forte, we find that unlike the VQE energy, the PT2 energy correction is highly noise-resilient.
