Abstract
A method of solving a problem can include providing a fermionic Hamiltonian, transformation of the fermionic Hamiltonian to qubit operators, transformation of the fermionic Hamiltonian in qubit operators to a mean-field Hamiltonian, and embedding the Hamiltonian onto a quantum computer. Such systems and methods may improve upon existing methods for solving electronic structure problems on a computer by adapting the problem to available hardware, reducing computational cost, and reducing the number of required qubits to solve electronic structure problems for larger number of atoms.
