• Abstract summary: Krylov quantum diagonalization methods for ground state energy estimation have emerged as a compelling use case for quantum computers. We present a quantum Krylov method that uses only time evolutions and recovery probabilities, making it well adapted for current quantum computers. We prove that the resulting ground energy estimate converges in the noise-free regime and provide a classical numerical demonstration of the method in the presence of noise.

• Abstract: Krylov quantum diagonalization methods for ground state energy estimation have emerged as a compelling use case for quantum computers. However, many existing methods rely on subroutines, in particular the Hadamard test, that are challenging on near-term quantum hardware. Motivated by this problem, we present a quantum Krylov method that uses only time evolutions and recovery probabilities, making it well adapted for current quantum computers. This is supplemented with a classical post-processing derivative estimation algorithm. The method ultimately estimates the eigenvalues of the commutator super-operator $X\to[H,X]$, so we declare it a super-Krylov method. We propose applying this method to estimate the ground-state energy of two classes of Hamiltonians: where either the highest energy is easily computable, or where the lowest and highest energies have the same absolute value. We prove that the resulting ground energy estimate converges in the noise-free regime and provide a classical numerical demonstration of the method in the presence of noise.
