| contents | A longstanding computational challenge is the accurate simulation of many-body particle systems. Especially for deriving key characteristics of high-impact but complex systems such as battery materials and high entropy alloys (HEA). While simple models allow for simulations of the required scale, these methods often fail to capture the complex dynamics that determine the characteristics. A long-theorized approach is to use quantum computers for this purpose, which allows for a more efficient encoding of quantum mechanical systems. In recent years, the field of quantum computing has become significantly more mature. Furthermore, the rise in integration of machine learning with quantum computing further pushes to a near-term advantage. In this work we aim to improve the well-established quantum computing method for calculating the inter-atomic potential, the variational quantum eigensolver, by presenting an auto-encoded VQE with neural-network predictions: NN-AE-VQE. We apply a quantum autoencoder for a compressed quantum state representation of the atomic system, to which a naive circuit ansatz is applied. This reduces the number of circuit parameters to optimize, while still minimal reduction in accuracy. Additionally, we train a classical neural network to predict the circuit parameters to avoid computationally expensive parameter optimization. We demonstrate these methods on a H2 molecule, achieving chemical accuracy. We believe this method shows promise of efficiently capturing highly accurate systems while omitting current bottlenecks of variational quantum algorithms. Finally, we explore options for exploiting the algorithm structure and further algorithm improvements. |
