mindquantum.core.operators.TimeEvolution

class mindquantum.core.operators.TimeEvolution(ops: QubitOperator, time=None)[source]

The time evolution operator that can generate a corresponded circuit.

The time evolution operator will do the following evolution:

\[\left|\varphi(t)\right>=e^{-iHt}\left|\varphi(0)\right>\]

Note

The hamiltonian should be a parameterized or non parameterized QubitOperator. If the QubitOperator has multiple terms, the first order trotter decomposition will be used.

Parameters

ops (QubitOperator) – The qubit operator hamiltonian, could be parameterized or non parameterized.
time (Union[numbers.Number, dict, ParameterResolver]) – The evolution time, could be a number or a parameter resolver. If None, the time will be set to 1. Default: None.

Examples

>>> from mindquantum.core.operators import TimeEvolution, QubitOperator
>>> q1 = QubitOperator('Z0 Y1', 'a')
>>> q2 = QubitOperator('X0 Z1', 'b')
>>> ops1 = q1 + q2
>>> ops2 = q2 + q1
>>> TimeEvolution(ops1).circuit
