Improved Hardness Results for the Guided Local Hamiltonian Problem
@article{Gharibian2022ImprovedHR, title={Improved Hardness Results for the Guided Local Hamiltonian Problem}, author={Sevag Gharibian and Ryunosuke Hayakawa and Franccois Le Gall and Tomoyuki Morimae}, journal={ArXiv}, year={2022}, volume={abs/2207.10250} }
Estimating the ground state energy of a local Hamiltonian is a central problem in quantum chemistry. In order to further investigate its complexity and the potential of quantum algorithms for quantum chemistry, Gharibian and Le Gall (STOC 2022) recently introduced the guided local Hamiltonian problem (GLH) , which is a variant of the local Hamiltonian problem where an approximation of a ground state (which is called a guiding state) is given as an additional input. Gharibian and Le Gall showed…
