• Abstract: Modeling non-Hermitian Hamiltonians is increasingly important in classical and quantum domains, especially when studying open systems, $PT$ symmetry, and resonances. However, the quantum simulation of these models has been limited by the extensive resources necessary in iterative methods with exponentially small postselection success probability. Here we employ a fixed-depth variational circuit to circumvent these limitations, enabling simulation deep into the $PT$-broken regime surrounding an exceptional point. Quantum simulations are carried out using IBM superconducting qubits. The results underscore the potential for variational quantum circuits and machine learning to push the boundaries of quantum simulation, offering new methods for exploring quantum phenomena with near-term intermediate-scale quantum technology.

  Equilibrium propagation (EP) is a procedure that has been introduced and applied to classical energy-based models which relax to an equilibrium. Here, we show a direct connection between EP and Onsager reciprocity and exploit this to derive a quantum version of EP. This can be used to optimize loss functions that depend on the expectation values of observables of an arbitrary quantum system.

  Quantum algorithms for quantum dynamics simulations are traditionally based on implementing a Trotter-approximation of the time-evolution operator. variational quantum algorithms have become an indispensable alternative, enabling small-scale simulations on present-day hardware. We show that, despite providing a clear reduction of quantum gate cost, the variational method in its current implementation is unlikely to lead to a quantum advantage.
