Quantum Computing Algorithms
Simulating materials on quantum computers
We develop and apply quantum computing algorithms for the simulation of quantum materials and many-body models. Our focus are algorithms that can be run on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) hardware, including variational algorithms and quantum error mitigation methods.
Current topics of interest are algorithms for the simulation of
- Thermal and ground-states properties of correlated electron systems
- Nonequilibrium dynamics of quantum many-body models
- Quantum error mitigation
