• Abstract: Many quantum algorithms rely on a quality initial state for optimal performance. Preparing an initial state for specific applications can considerably reduce the cost of probabilistic algorithms such as the well studied quantum phase estimation (QPE). Fortunately, in the application space of quantum chemistry, generating approximate wave functions for molecular systems is well studied, and quantum computing algorithms stand to benefit from importing these classical methods directly into a quantum circuit. In this work, we propose a state preparation method based on coupled cluster (CC) theory, which is a pillar of quantum chemistry on classical computers, by incorporating mid-circuit measurements into the circuit construction. Currently, the most well studied state preparation method for quantum chemistry on quantum computers is the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) with a unitary-CC with single- and double-electron excitation terms (UCCSD) ansatz whose operations are limited to unitary gates. We verify the accuracy of our state preparation protocol using mid-circuit measurements by performing energy evaluation and state overlap computation for a set of small chemical systems. We further demonstrate that our approach leads to a reduction of the classical computation overhead, and the number of CNOT and T gates by 28% and 57% on average when compared against the standard VQE-UCCSD protocol.

  In principle, the encoding of the exponentially scaling many-electron wave function onto a linearly scaling qubit register offers a promising solution to overcome the limitations of traditional quantum chemistry methods. An essential requirement for ground state quantum algorithms to be practical is the initialisation of the qubits to a high-quality approximation of the sought-after ground state. Quantum State Preparation (QSP) allows the preparation of approximate eigenstates obtained from classical calculations, but it is frequently treated as an oracle in quantum information.
