Nonlinear dynamics as a ground-state solution on quantum computers

For the solution of time-dependent nonlinear differential equations, we present variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) that encode both space and time in qubit registers.The spacetime encoding enables us to obtain the entire time evolution from a single ground-state computation.We Rolling Trays describe a general procedure to construct efficient quantum circuits for the cost function evaluation required by VQAs.To mitigate the barren plateau problem during the optimization, we propose an adaptive multigrid strategy.The approach is illustrated for the nonlinear Burgers equation.

We classically optimize quantum circuits Hat to represent the desired ground-state solutions, run them on IBM Q System One and Quantinuum System Model H1, and demonstrate that current quantum computers are capable of accurately reproducing the exact results.
