Quantum computing’s potential for computational chemistry is immense, but there are practical limitations. We show how Kvantify’s FAST-VQE algorithm can deliver great accuracy, performance, superior cost-effectiveness, driving us closer to transformative applications in drug discovery.

This blog post is an introduction to HPC on AWS for quantum computing researchers who are seeking to compare their quantum or hybrid algorithms against classical calculations.

In this post, we show how tools from our partner Good Chemistry can help you further explore the potential of quantum computing for non-trivial molecular systems, and design experiments that you can run on Amazon Braket.

Introduction Quantum computers hold the promise of driving novel approaches to solving complex problems across multiple fields, including optimization, machine learning, and the simulation of physical systems. Researchers are already using quantum computers to explore computational chemistry problems, however the scale and capabilities of quantum devices available today is limited by noise and other factors. […]

In this blog post we develop a chemistry use case by augmenting classical algorithms for Quantum Monte Carlo with quantum computers. We will explain how to run these quantum-classical hybrid algorithms using Amazon Braket. You can find the code presented in this blog post in an accompanying Jupyter notebook. Overview Accurately determining the electronic energies […]

This post summarizes a recent research paper from the AWS Center for Quantum Computing. The paper provides an improved analysis of quantum simulation of chemical and material systems. This research shows that such simulations can be implemented using fewer elementary quantum operations than previously thought. Computer simulations enable scientists to test their intuition about the […]

(Update: Pasqal and Qu&Co announced a merger on January 11, 2022.) In this post, we discuss the progress and limitations of chemistry simulations on current quantum computers, and introduce Qu&Co‘s QUBEC, a quantum computational platform that is specifically designed for chemistry and materials science simulations. The post describes QUBEC’s architecture and how it integrates with […]
