• Authors: Matthew Pocrnic, Matthew Hagan, Juan Carrasquilla, Dvira Segal, Nathan Wiebe
• Abstract summary: Recent work has shown that it can be advantageous to implement a composite channel that partitions the Hamiltonian $H$ for a given simulation problem into subsets. We show that this approach holds in imaginary time, making it a candidate classical algorithm for quantum Monte-Carlo calculations. We provide exact numerical simulations of algorithmic cost by counting the number of gates of the form $e-iH_j t$ and $e-H_j beta$ to meet a certain error tolerance.

• Abstract: Recent work has shown that it can be advantageous to implement a composite channel that partitions the Hamiltonian $H$ for a given simulation problem into subsets $A$ and $B$ such that $H=A+B$, where the terms in $A$ are simulated with a Trotter-Suzuki channel and the $B$ terms are randomly sampled via the QDrift algorithm. Here we show that this approach holds in imaginary time, making it a candidate classical algorithm for quantum Monte-Carlo calculations. We upper-bound the induced Schatten-$1 \to 1$ norm on both imaginary-time QDrift and Composite channels. Another recent result demonstrated that simulations of Hamiltonians containing geometrically-local interactions for systems defined on finite lattices can be improved by decomposing $H$ into subsets that contain only terms supported on that subset of the lattice using a Lieb-Robinson argument. Here, we provide a quantum algorithm by unifying this result with the composite approach into ``local composite channels" and we upper bound the diamond distance. We provide exact numerical simulations of algorithmic cost by counting the number of gates of the form $e^{-iH_j t}$ and $e^{-H_j \beta}$ to meet a certain error tolerance $\epsilon$. We show constant factor advantages for a variety of interesting Hamiltonians, the maximum of which is a $\approx 20$ fold speedup that occurs for a simulation of Jellium.

  We present a quantum generalization of these tools through a generic bottleneck lemma. This lemma focuses on quantum measures of distance, analogous to the classical Hamming distance but rooted in uniquely quantum principles. Even with sublinear barriers, we use Feynman-Kac techniques to lift classical to quantum ones establishing tight lower bound $T_mathrmmix = 2Omega(nalpha)$.

  We consider the problem of learning an $varepsilon$-optimal policy in a general class of continuous-space Markov decision processes (MDPs) having smooth Bellman operators. Key to our solution is a novel projection technique based on ideas from harmonic analysis. Our result bridges the gap between two popular but conflicting perspectives on continuous-space MDPs.

  A basic problem of fitting an ellipsoid to random points has connections to low-rank matrix decompositions, independent component analysis, and principal component analysis. We resolve this conjecture up to logarithmic factors by constructing a fitting ellipsoid for some $n = Omega(, d2/mathrmpolylog(d),)$. Our proof demonstrates feasibility of the least squares construction of Saunderson et al. using a convenient decomposition of a certain non-standard random matrix.

We estimate observables which we cost in both the NISQ and fault-tolerant settings by assuming a simple target observable---the mean pair density.
