Abstract

Eigendecompositions have a large variety of applications in physics, biology, mechanical engineering, ML, etc. To find the exact Eigendecomposition of a quantum system one has to employ Hamiltonian simulation techniques that require large, error-resistant systems. However, as discussed in https://arxiv.org/pdf/1810.10506.pdf an approximate Eigendecomposition can be implemented with a variational Ansatz.

Description

This contribution shall be a new algorithm in Qiskit Aqua. Check https://qiskit.org/documentation/contributing_to_qiskit.html including the installation from source.

Hi @Unathi-Skosana! I could not add you to this group because you are already in #7. If you want to change teams, unassign yourself from #7 and write me again here.
