Surviving The Barren Plateau in Variational Quantum Circuits with Bayesian Learning Initialization
TLDR
The fast-and-slow algorithm is introduced, which uses Bayesian Learning to identify a promising region in parameter space and is used to initialize a fast local optimizer to find the global optimum point efficiently.
A Convergence Theory for Over-parameterized Variational Quantum Eigensolvers
TLDR
This work provides the first rigorous analysis of the convergence of VQEs in the over-parameterization regime and showcases that the ansatz-dependent threshold could serve as a proxy of the trainability of different VQE ansatzes without performing empirical experiments, which hence leads to a principled way of evaluating ansatz design.
Quantum neural networks force fields generation
TLDR
A direct connection between classical and quantum solutions for learning neural network potentials is established and a quantum neural network architecture is designed and applied successfully to different molecules of growing complexity, pointing towards potential quantum advantages in natural science applications via quantum machine learning.
Adiabatic quantum computing with parameterized quantum circuits
TLDR
This work analyzes how a small perturbation of a Hamiltonian affects the parameters that minimize the energy within a family of parameterized quantum states to propose a discrete version of adiabatic quantum computing that can be implemented with quantum devices identical with those of variational quantum algorithms, while being insensitive to the parameter initialization and other limitations that the optimization part of variations bring.
Beyond Barren Plateaus: Quantum Variational Algorithms Are Swamped With Traps
TLDR
It is proved that a wide class of variational quantum models—which are shallow, and exhibit no barren plateus—have only a superpolynomially small fraction of local minima within any constant energy from the global minimum, rendering these models untrainable if no good initial guess of the optimal parameters is known.
Algebraic Bethe Circuits
TLDR
This work distills the non-unitary R matrices that make up the ABA into unitaries using the QR decomposition, and derives a new form of the Yang-Baxter equation using unitary matrices, and also verify it on a quantum computer.

Critical Points in Hamiltonian Agnostic Variational Quantum Algorithms
TLDR
This work shows that a certain randomized class of variational quantum algorithms can be mapped to Wishart random fields on the hypertorus, and analytically finds the expected distribution of critical points in such random processes.
Barren plateaus in quantum neural network training landscapes
TLDR
It is shown that for a wide class of reasonable parameterized quantum circuits, the probability that the gradient along any reasonable direction is non-zero to some fixed precision is exponentially small as a function of the number of qubits.
Noise-induced barren plateaus in variational quantum algorithms
TLDR
This work rigorously proves a serious limitation for noisy VQAs, in that the noise causes the training landscape to have a barren plateau, and proves that the gradient vanishes exponentially in the number of qubits n if the depth of the ansatz grows linearly with n.
