Project Description:

One of the most well known quantum algorithm is Shor's Algorithm which utilizes period-finding to find a single factor of a integer, here is our take on factoring integers using a quantum computer via VQE. We created a method to generate a Hamiltonian of a number such that the eigenvalue that is 0 will have an associate eigenvector that would describe the composite nature of that number.
