Low rank representations for quantum simulation of electronic structure

Abstract The quantum simulation of quantum chemistry is a promising application of quantum computers. However, for N molecular orbitals, the $${\mathcal{O}}({N}^{4})$$ O ( N 4 ) gate complexity of performing Hamiltonian and unitary Coupled Cluster Trotter steps makes simulation based on such primiti...
