Quantum time dynamics employing the Yang-Baxter equation for circuit compression

Quantum time dynamics (QTD) is considered a promising problem for quantum supremacy on near-term quantum computers. However, QTD quantum circuits grow with increasing time simulations. This study focuses on simulating the time dynamics of one-dimensional (1D) integrable spin chains with nearest-neighbor interactions. We have proved the existence of a reflection symmetry in the quantum circuit employed for simulating the time evolution of certain classes of 1D Heisenberg model Hamiltonians by virtue of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation, and how this symmetry can be exploited to compress and produce a shallow quantum circuit. With this compression scheme, the depth of the quantum circuit becomes independent of step size and only depends on the number of spins. We show that the depth of the compressed circuit is rigorously a linear function of the system size for the studied Heisenberg model Hamiltonians in the present work. As a consequence, the number of CNOT gates in the compressed circuit only scales quadratically with the system size, which allows for the simulations of time dynamics of very large 1D spin chains. We derive the compressed circuit representations for different special cases of the Heisenberg Hamiltonian. We compare and demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach by performing simulations on quantum computers.

QuYBE - An Algebraic Compiler for Quantum Circuit Compression

QuYBE is an open-source algebraic compiler for the compression of quantum circuits. It has been applied for the efficient simulation of the Heisenberg Hamiltonian on quantum computers. Currently, it can simulate the time dynamics of one-dimensional chains. It includes modules to generate the quantum circuits for the above as well as produce the compressed circuits, which are independent of the time step. It utilizes the Yang-Baxter equation (YBE) to perform the compression. QuYBE enables users to seamlessly design, execute, and analyze the time dynamics of the Heisenberg Hamiltonian on quantum computers. QuYBE is the first step toward making the YBE technique available to a broader community of scientists from multiple domains. The QuYBE compiler is available at https://github.com/ZichangHe/QuYBE.

Algebraic Bethe Circuits

The Algebraic Bethe Ansatz (ABA) is a highly successful analytical method used to exactly solve several physical models in both statistical mechanics and condensed-matter physics. Here we bring the ABA into unitary form, for its direct implementation on a quantum computer. This is achieved by distilling the non-unitary R matrices that make up the ABA into unitaries using the QR decomposition. Our algorithm is deterministic and works for both real and complex roots of the Bethe equations. We illustrate our method on the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XX and XXZ models. We show that using this approach one can efficiently prepare eigenstates of the XX model on a quantum computer with quantum resources that match previous state-of-the-art approaches. We run small-scale error mitigated implementations on the IBM quantum computers, including the preparation of the ground state for the XX and XXZ models on 4 sites. Finally, we derive a new form of the Yang-Baxter equation using unitary matrices, and also verify it on a quantum computer.

Optimal Realization of Yang–Baxter Gate on Quantum Computers

Quantum computers provide a promising method to study the dynamics of many-body systems beyond classical simulation. On the other hand, the analytical methods developed and results obtained from the integrable systems provide deep insights on the many-body system. Quantum simulation of the integrable system not only provides a valid benchmark for quantum computers but is also the first step in studying integrable-breaking systems. The building block for the simulation of an integrable system is the Yang–Baxter gate. It is vital to know how to optimally realize the Yang–Baxter gates on quantum computers. Based on the geometric picture of the Yang–Baxter gates, the optimal realizations of two types of Yang–Baxter gates with a minimal number of controlled NOT (CNOT) or gates are presented. It is also shown how to systematically realize the Yang–Baxter gates via the pulse control. The different realizations on IBM quantum computers are tested and compared. It is found that the pulse realizations of the Yang–Baxter gates always have a higher gate fidelity compared to the optimal CNOT or realizations. On the basis of the above optimal realizations, the simulation of the Yang–Baxter equation on quantum computers is demonstrated. Finally, these results provide a guideline and standard for further experimental studies based on the Yang–Baxter gate.

Hybrid algorithm for the time-dependent Hartree–Fock method using the Yang–Baxter equation on quantum computers *

Abstract The time-dependent Hartree–Fock (TDHF) method is an approach to simulate the mean field dynamics of electrons within the assumption that the electrons move independently in their self-consistent average field and within the space of single Slater determinants. One of the major advantages of performing time dynamics within Hartree–Fock theory is the free fermionic nature of the problem, which makes TDHF classically simulatable in polynomial time. Here, we present a hybrid TDHF implementation for quantum computers. This quantum circuit grows with time; but with our recent work on circuit compression via the Yang–Baxter equation (YBE), the resulting circuit is constant depth. This study provides a new way to simulate TDHF with the aid of a quantum device as well as provides a new direction for the application of YBE symmetry in quantum chemistry simulations.
