Read Pennylane papers

[schweikart]

especially the sequential optimal paper

• [ ] ostaszewski paper (focus on rotosolve and think about rotoselect as related and future work considering CRP gate selection)
• [ ] generalized parameter shift rule (should explain how pennylane implements rotosolve and the meaning of frequencies in this context in particular. This might also be related to pennylane fourier)
• [ ] ...other papers. One of these papers should mention (afaik) that 6 evaluations are enough to optimize CRP

Some focus points for reading:

• Make sure to stick to the topic, don't get too distracted with details
• Understand the main ideas, not all of the details
• read sources if they are relevant for the topic
• pay attention to stay on the necessary level of abstraction
• always mind the time-consumed to value-gained ratio
