| contents | In this work, we combine the recently developed double unitary coupled cluster (DUCC) theory with the adaptive, problem-tailored variational quantum eigensolver (ADAPT-VQE) to explore accuracy of unitary downfolded Hamiltonians for quantum simulation of chemistry. We benchmark the ability of DUCC effective Hamiltonians to recover dynamical correlation energy outside of an active space. We consider the effects of strong correlation, commutator truncation, higher-body terms, and approximate external amplitudes on the accuracy of these effective Hamiltonians. When combining these DUCC Hamiltonians with ADAPT-VQE, we observe similar convergence of the ground state as compared to bare active space Hamiltonians, demonstrating that DUCC Hamiltonians provide increased accuracy without increasing the load on the quantum processor. |
