We propose a new variational quantum algorithm, which we refer to as TIMES-ADAPT, that prepares time-evolved states in a low-energy or symmetric subspace of a time-independent Hamiltonian on a quantum computer. Using a specially trained…

The next generation of force fields for molecular dynamics will be developed using a wealth of data. Training systematically with experimental data remains a challenge, however, especially for machine learning potentials. Differentiable…

We consider the quantized atom-field model and for the regime that $\hat{H}_{\cal E}\ll\hat{H}_{\cal S}\ll\hat{H'}$ (but $\hat{H}_{\cal E}\neq0$ and $\hat{H}_{\cal S}\neq0$); where $\hat{H}_{\cal E}$, $\hat{H}_{\cal S}$ and $\hat{H'}$…
