The optimization of circuit parameters of variational quantum algorithms such as the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) or the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is a key challenge for the practical deployment of near-term quantum computing algorithms. Here, we develop a hybrid quantum/classical optimization procedure inspired by the Jacobi diagonalization algorithm for classical eigendecomposition, and combined with Anderson acceleration. In the first stage, analytical tomography fittings are performed for a local cluster of circuit parameters via sampling of the observable objective function at quadrature points in the circuit angles. Classical optimization is used to determine the optimal circuit parameters within the cluster, with the other circuit parameters frozen. Different clusters of circuit parameters are then optimized in sweeps, leading to a monotonically-convergent fixed-point procedure. In the second stage, the iterative history of the fixed-point Jacobi procedure is used to accelerate the convergence by applying Anderson acceleration/Pulays direct inversion of the iterative subspace (DIIS). This Jacobi+Anderson method is numerically tested using a quantum circuit simulator (without noise) for a representative test case from the multistate, contracted variant of the variational quantum eigensolver (MC-VQE), and is found to be competitive with and often faster than Powells method and L-BFGS.

Preparation of Gibbs distributions is an important task for quantum computation. It is a necessary first step in some types of quantum simulations and further is essential for quantum algorithms such as quantum Boltzmann training. Despite this, most
methods for preparing thermal states are impractical to implement on near-term quantum computers because of the memory overheads required. Here we present a variational approach to preparing Gibbs states that is based on minimizing the free energy of a quantum system. The key insight that makes this practical is the use of Fourier series approximations to the logarithm that allows the entropy component of the free-energy to be estimated through a sequence of simpler measurements that can be combined together using classical post processing. We further show that this approach is efficient for generating high-temperature Gibbs states, within constant error, if the initial guess for the variational parameters for the programmable quantum circuit are sufficiently close to a global optima. Finally, we examine the procedure numerically and show the viability of our approach for five-qubit Hamiltonians using Trotterized adiabatic state preparation as an ansatz.
We explore whether quantum advantages can be found for the zeroth-order online convex optimization problem, which is also known as bandit convex optimization with multi-point feedback. In this setting, given access to zeroth-order oracles (that is, t
he loss function is accessed as a black box that returns the function value for any queried input), a player attempts to minimize a sequence of adversarially generated convex loss functions. This procedure can be described as a $T$ round iterative game between the player and the adversary. In this paper, we present quantum algorithms for the problem and show for the first time that potential quantum advantages are possible for problems of online convex optimization. Specifically, our contributions are as follows. (i) When the player is allowed to query zeroth-order oracles $O(1)$ times in each round as feedback, we give a quantum algorithm that achieves $O(sqrt{T})$ regret without additional dependence of the dimension $n$, which outperforms the already known optimal classical algorithm only achieving $O(sqrt{nT})$ regret. Note that the regret of our quantum algorithm has achieved the lower bound of classical first-order methods. (ii) We show that for strongly convex loss functions, the quantum algorithm can achieve $O(log T)$ regret with $O(1)$ queries as well, which means that the quantum algorithm can achieve the same regret bound as the classical algorithms in the full information setting.
An enhanced framework of quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) is introduced and the parameter setting strategies are analyzed. The enhanced QAOA is as effective as the QAOA but exhibits greater computing power and flexibility, and with p
roper parameters, it can arrive at the optimal solution faster. Moreover, based on the analysis of this framework, strategies are provided to select the parameter at a cost of $O(1)$. Simulations are conducted on randomly generated 3-satisfiability (3-SAT) of scale of 20 qubits and the optimal solution can be found with a high probability in iterations much less than $O(sqrt{N})$
We propose an algorithm based on variational quantum imaginary time evolution for solving the Feynman-Kac partial differential equation resulting from a multidimensional system of stochastic differential equations. We utilize the correspondence betwe
en the Feynman-Kac partial differential equation (PDE) and the Wick-rotated Schr{o}dinger equation for this purpose. The results for a $(2+1)$ dimensional Feynman-Kac system, obtained through the variational quantum algorithm are then compared against classical ODE solvers and Monte Carlo simulation. We see a remarkable agreement between the classical methods and the quantum variational method for an illustrative example on six qubits. In the non-trivial case of PDEs which are preserving probability distributions -- rather than preserving the $ell_2$-norm -- we introduce a proxy norm which is efficient in keeping the solution approximately normalized throughout the evolution. The algorithmic complexity and costs associated to this methodology, in particular for the extraction of properties of the solution, are investigated. Future research topics in the areas of quantitative finance and other types of PDEs are also discussed.
Quantum variational algorithms have garnered significant interest recently, due to their feasibility of being implemented and tested on noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) devices. We examine the robustness of the quantum approximate optimization
algorithm (QAOA), which can be used to solve certain quantum control problems, state preparation problems, and combinatorial optimization problems. We demonstrate that the error of QAOA simulation can be significantly reduced by robust control optimization techniques, specifically, by sequential convex programming (SCP), to ensure error suppression in situations where the source of the error is known but not necessarily its magnitude. We show that robust optimization improves both the objective landscape of QAOA as well as overall circuit fidelity in the presence of coherent errors and errors in initial state preparation.
