Which challenges would you like to submit your project for?
Power-Up plan and project description: For this project we plan to first classically simulate the BeH2 Molecule’s ground state using as large an active space as possible (which will require exponentially higher classical computing resources as the number of qubits and fidelity increases).The VQE for this part of the project will be simulated using both noiseless and noisy simulators in order to test the effect of various error mitigation strategies. However, as the number of qubits increases our personal computers will grow less and less effective.
Based on our initial VQE implementations using Qiskit and Pennylane 9-14 qubits will be needed depending on the simplifications we can make to the hamiltonian, such as the 2-qubit reduction. Implementing this on IBM or other devices available via amazon bracket will let us find the optimal fidelity-runtime tradeoff, considering the active space and fidelity of our simulation. We would also be able to test our error mitigation strategies using actual (non-simulated) noise on the quantum processors. This would let us characterize the VQE process on multiple devices and compare runtime to fidelity.
