qiskit.aqua.algorithms.QPE¶

class QPE(operator=None, state_in=None, iqft=None, num_time_slices=1, num_ancillae=1, expansion_mode='trotter', expansion_order=1, shallow_circuit_concat=False, quantum_instance=None)[código fonte]¶

The Quantum Phase Estimation algorithm.

QPE (also sometimes abbreviated as PEA, for Phase Estimation Algorithm), has two quantum registers, control and target, where the control consists of several qubits initially put in uniform superposition, and the target a set of qubits prepared in an eigenstate (often a guess of the eigenstate) of the unitary operator of a quantum system. QPE then evolves the target under the control using dynamics on the unitary operator. The information of the corresponding eigenvalue is then ‘kicked-back’ into the phases of the control register, which can then be deconvoluted by an Inverse Quantum Fourier Transform (IQFT), and measured for read-out in binary decimal format. QPE also requires a reasonably good estimate of the eigen wave function to start the process. For example, when estimating molecular ground energies in chemistry, the Hartree-Fock method could be used to provide such trial eigen wave functions.

Parâmetros

property aux_operators¶

Returns aux operators

Tipo de retorno: Optional[List[Union[OperatorBase, LegacyBaseOperator]]]

property backend¶

Returns backend.

Tipo de retorno: Union[Backend, BaseBackend]

compute_minimum_eigenvalue(operator=None, aux_operators=None)[código fonte]¶

Computes minimum eigenvalue. Operator and aux_operators can be supplied here and if not None will override any already set into algorithm so it can be reused with different operators. While an operator is required by algorithms, aux_operators are optional. To ‘remove’ a previous aux_operators array use an empty list here.

Parâmetros

operator (Union[OperatorBase, LegacyBaseOperator, None]) – If not None replaces operator in algorithm
aux_operators (Optional[List[Union[OperatorBase, LegacyBaseOperator]]]) – If not None replaces aux_operators in algorithm

construct_circuit(measurement=False)[código fonte]¶

Construct circuit.

Parâmetros: measurement (bool) – Boolean flag to indicate if measurement should be included in the circuit.
Retorna: quantum circuit.
Tipo de retorno: QuantumCircuit

property operator¶

Returns operator

Tipo de retorno: Optional[LegacyBaseOperator]

property quantum_instance¶

Returns quantum instance.

Tipo de retorno: Optional[QuantumInstance]

property random¶: Return a numpy random.

run(quantum_instance=None, **kwargs)¶

Execute the algorithm with selected backend.

classmethod supports_aux_operators()¶

Whether computing the expectation value of auxiliary operators is supported.

If the minimum eigensolver computes an eigenstate of the main operator then it can compute the expectation value of the aux_operators for that state. Otherwise they will be ignored.

Tipo de retorno: bool
Retorna: True if aux_operator expectations can be evaluated, False otherwise
