[arXiv:1910.10329](https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.10329) ## Abstract Explore the effects of ordering on the Trotterized UCCSD ansatz and k-upCCGSD ansatz. Different energy scale is observed among different ordering of operators. This paper suggests the need of not only the operators used but also order in which they appear. ## Introduction The history of quantum chemistry calculations with quantum algorithms. About NISQ devises. * While quantum error correction, which use lots of qubits is not expected to be succesful in the near future, the potentials of NISQ devices which use few qubits are studied. * VQE provides the path of NISQ devises which limits the depth of circuits. About UCCSD ansatz. * Usefullness * Explanations ## Numerical examples Calculated the ground energy of several molcules (LiH, H$_6$, BeH$_2$, and N$_2$) with 1s and 2s orbital frozen. * basis sto-3g * Mapping = jordanwigner * Optimizer BFGS Comparion with potential curves with UCCSD, SGO, random shuffled, and FCI. > In the papaer says UCCSD has several ways of ordering e.g. SGO, random shuffled, though I think there are no definions written in the paper. > Un-trotter ansatz iin the paper may refer to the UCCSD and the SGO? ![](https://i.imgur.com/1solfgM.png) ## k-upCCGSD The UCCSD ansatz seemed to be accurate when the number of operator which are not related to the accurate estimates. These operators are seemed to have a role on minimizeing the differences between the ordering. To test this considerd compared k-upCCGCD. ![](https://i.imgur.com/nQhVKi4.png) ## Conclusions The ordering affects the simulation results. Also suggests that there are symmetrical patterns that gives the lowest energy.
