Quantum mixed state compiling

Abstract: The task of learning a quantum circuit to prepare a given mixed state is a fundamental quantum subroutine. We present a variational quantum algorithm (VQA) to learn mixed states which is suitable for near-term hardware. Our algorithm represents a generalization of previous VQAs that aimed at learning preparation circuits for pure states. We consider two different ansätze for compiling the target state; the first is based on learning a purification of the state and the second on representing it as a convex comb… Show more

“…However, validating QPE-based PCA algorithms is technically challenging on near-term quantum computers due to the high requirements for ancillary systems. In a different direction, many efforts have been made to make quantum PCA an accessible application for near-term quantum computers through variational methods [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28], which are a trainable hybrid quantum-classical framework based on parameterized quantum circuits [29]. These variational methods have become important platforms for demonstrating quantum advantages in the near future.…”

“…This latter ability is called generalization and has been intensely studied recently [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Constructing models that generalize well is essential for quantum machine learning tasks such as variational learning of unitaries [18][19][20][21][22][23][24], which is applied to unitary compiling [11,25,26], quantum simulation [10,27,28], quantum autoencoders [29,30] and black-hole recovery protocols [31].…”
