| contents | The limited capabilities of current quantum hardware significantly constrain the scale of experimental demonstrations of most quantum algorithmic primitives. This makes it challenging to perform benchmarking of the current hardware using useful quantum algorithms, i.e., application-oriented benchmarking. In particular, the Harrow-Hassidim-Lloyd (HHL) algorithm is a critical quantum linear algebra primitive, but the majority of the components of HHL are far out of the reach of noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices, which has led to the proposal of hybrid classical-quantum variants. The goal of this work is to further bridge the gap between proposed near-term friendly implementations of HHL and the kinds of quantum circuits that can be executed on noisy hardware. Our proposal adds to the existing literature of hybrid quantum algorithms for linear algebra that are more compatible with the current scale of quantum devices. Specifically, we propose two modifications to the Hybrid HHL algorithm proposed by Lee etal. leading to our algorithm Hybrid HHL++: (1) propose a novel algorithm for determining a scaling factor for the linear system matrix that maximizes the utility of the amount of ancillary qubits allocated to the phase estimation component of HHL, and (2) introduce a heuristic for compressing the HHL circuit. We demonstrate the efficacy of our work by running our modified Hybrid HHL on Quantinuum System Model H-series trapped-ion quantum computers to solve different problem instances of small-scale portfolio optimization problems, leading to the largest experimental demonstrations of HHL for an application to date. |
