• Abstract: We present verification protocols to gain confidence in the correct performance of the realization of an arbitrary universal quantum computation. The derivation of the protocols is based on the fact that matchgate computations, which are classically efficiently simulable, become universal if supplemented with additional resources. We combine tools from weak simulation, randomized compiling, and classical statistics to derive verification circuits. These circuits have the property that (i) they strongly resemble the original circuit and (ii) cannot only be classically efficiently simulated in the ideal, i.e. error free, scenario, but also in the realistic situation where errors are present. In fact, in one of the protocols we apply exactly the same circuit as in the original computation, however, to a slightly modified input state.

  Quantum circuits consisting of Clifford and matchgates are two classes of circuits that are known to be efficiently simulatable on a classical computer. We introduce a unified framework that shows in a transparent way the special structure that allows these circuits can be efficiently simulatable.

  We introduce the qDrift protocol, which builds random product formulas by sampling from the Hamiltonian according to the coefficients. We show that the simulation cost can be reduced while achieving the same accuracy, by considering the individual simulation cost during the sampling stage. Results are confirmed by numerical simulations performed on a lattice nuclear effective field theory.

We propose a method that meets these requirements by introducing a variant of the iterative qubit coupled cluster (iQCC) We demonstrate the algorithm's correctness in ground-state simulations and extend our study to complex systems like the titanium-based compound Ti(C5H5)(CH3)3 with a (20, 20) active space.

We show how by simply changing the temporal scheduling of the update rule for the synaptic weights leads to an algorithm that is much more efficient and stable than the original one.

  Activation Relaxation (AR) algorithm provides a simple and robust approach for approximating the backpropagation of error algorithm. We show that the algorithm can be further simplified and made more biologically plausible by introducing a learnable set of backwards weights. We also investigate whether another biologically implausible assumption of the original AR algorithm -- the frozen feedforward pass -- can be relaxed without damaging performance.

• Efficient calculation of gradients in classical simulations of variational quantum algorithms [0.0]
  We present a novel derivation of an emulation strategy to precisely calculate the gradient in O(P) time. Our strategy is very simple, uses only 'apply gate', 'clone state' and 'inner product' primitives. It is compatible with gate parallelisation schemes, and hardware accelerated and distributed simulators.
