• Abstract summary: We analyze the trainability and controllability of variational quantum circuits (VQCs) We first design and prove the feasibility of new data loaders, performing quantum amplitude encoding of $binomnk$-dimensional vectors. Lastly, we analyze the trainability of Hamming weight preserving circuits, and show that the variance of the $binomnk$ of the subspace is bounded according to the $binomnk$ of the subspace.

• Abstract: Quantum machine learning (QML) has become a promising area for real world applications of quantum computers, but near-term methods and their scalability are still important research topics. In this context, we analyze the trainability and controllability of specific Hamming weight preserving variational quantum circuits (VQCs). These circuits use qubit gates that preserve subspaces of the Hilbert space, spanned by basis states with fixed Hamming weight $k$. In this work, we first design and prove the feasibility of new heuristic data loaders, performing quantum amplitude encoding of $\binom{n}{k}$-dimensional vectors by training an $n$-qubit quantum circuit. These data loaders are obtained using dimensionality reduction techniques, by checking the Quantum Fisher Information Matrix (QFIM)'s rank. Second, we provide a theoretical justification for the fact that the rank of the QFIM of any VQC state is almost-everywhere constant, which is of separate interest. Lastly, we analyze the trainability of Hamming weight preserving circuits, and show that the variance of the $l_2$ cost function gradient is bounded according to the dimension $\binom{n}{k}$ of the subspace. This proves conditions of existence/lack of Barren Plateaus for these circuits, and highlights a setting where a recent conjecture on the link between controllability and trainability of variational quantum circuits does not apply.

  Energy extraction from quantum sources is a key task to develop new quantum devices such as quantum batteries.
