Characterization of variational quantum algorithms using free fermions
We study variational quantum algorithms from the perspective of free fermions. By deriving the explicit structure of the associated Lie algebras, we show that the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) on a one-dimensional lattice – with and without decoupled angles – is able to prepare a...
