• Abstract: Variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) is an efficient classical-quantum hybrid method to take advantage of quantum computers in the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era. In this work we test the performance of VQE by studying the $J_1$-$J_2$ anti-ferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the kagome lattice, which is found to display a first order phase transition at $J_2 / J_1 \approx 0.01$. By comparing the VQE states with the exact diagonalization results, we find VQE energies agree well with the exact values in most region of parameters for the 18-site system we studied. However, near the phase transition point, VQE tends to converge to the excited states when the number of variational parameters is not large enough. For the system studied in this work, this issue can be solved by either increasing the number of parameters or by initializing the parameters with converged values for $J_2/J_1$ away from the phase transition point. Our results provide useful guidance for the practical application of VQE on real quantum computers to study strongly correlated quantum many-body systems.

  We present a quantum simulator comprising 69 superconducting qubits which supports both universal quantum gates and high-fidelity analog evolution.

We digitally prepare the system in pairwise-entangled dimer states and image the transport of energy and vorticity during thermalization.

We apply this approach to the 1D and 2D Fermi-Hubbard model with system sizes that use up to 32 qubits. In 2D, the parameters that VTNE finds have significantly lower energy than their starting configurations, and we show that starting VQE from these parameters requires non-trivially fewer operations to come down to a given energy.

  We investigate using quantum computers and the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) for this task. In contrast to the task of preparing the exact ground state using VQE, sketching phase diagrams might require less quantum resources and accuracy. We find that it is possible to predict the location of phase transitions up to reasonable accuracy using states produced by VQE.

• Quantum Statistical Complexity Measure as a Signalling of Correlation Transitions [55.41644538483948]
  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
