“…The construction of such nonunitary operators, derived from functions of the target Hamiltonian. Examples include imaginary time evolution [15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22], QGF algorithms [23,24,25,26], cosine filter algorithms [27,28], sine filter algorithms [29], powered Hamiltonian operator algorithms [30,31], and quantum inverse iteration method [32,33]. The non-trivial implementation of these nonunitary operators on quantum computers has prompted methods like linear combination of unitaries [27], energy sequential estimation [32], and variational techniques [15].…”
