Abstract

Despite the successful enhancement to the Harrow-Hassidim-Lloyd algorithm by Childs et al., who introduced the Fourier approach leveraging linear combinations of unitary operators, our research has identified non-trivial redundancies within this method. This finding points to a considerable potential for refinement. In this paper, we propose the quantum Krylov-subspace method (QKSM), which is a hybrid classical-quantum algorithm, to mitigate such redundancies. By integrating QKSM as a subroutine, we introduce the quantum Krylov-subspace method based linear solver that not only reduces computational redundancy but also enhances efficiency and accuracy. Extensive numerical experiments, conducted on systems with dimensions up to 210×2102^{10} \times 2^{10}, have demonstrated a significant reduction in computational resources and have led to more precise approximations.
