Recorded 03 April 2025. Stijn De Baerdemacker of the University of New Brunswick presents "Real-space quantum chemistry on quantum devices" at IPAM's Optimal Transport for Density Operators: Theory and Numerics Workshop. Abstract: The current paradigm of quantum chemical implementations of wavefunctions and density matrices is in the orbital-picture. This puts some limitations on the versatility of the currently employed methods, both within a VQE and QPE context. In this presentation, I will present a grid-based approach to implementing wavefunctions and density matrices on a digital quantum device. Joint work with Ehsan Ghasempouri and Gerhard Dueck.
