Introduction to Quantum Algorithms for Physics and Chemistry
by Man-Hong Yung, et al.
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 44
Description:
In this introductory review, we focus on applications of quantum computation to problems of interest in physics and chemistry. We describe quantum simulation algorithms that have been developed for electronic-structure problems, thermal-state preparation, simulation of time dynamics, adiabatic quantum simulation, and density functional theory.
