Set up molecular Hamiltonians in OpenFermion, apply Jordan-Wigner mapping to convert fermionic operators to Pauli strings, and build a VQE circuit in Cirq.
Build a complete quantum chemistry pipeline: encode the H2 Hamiltonian with OpenFermion, transform it to qubits via Jordan-Wigner, then find the ground state energy using VQE on Qiskit's statevector simulator.
How quantum computers simulate molecular systems: from second quantization and fermion-to-qubit mappings to VQE and the active space approximation.
A complete walkthrough of VQE for the hydrogen molecule in Qiskit Nature, from PySCF driver and Jordan-Wigner mapping through UCCSD ansatz and classical optimization.
Set up and run a molecular ground state energy calculation in Qiskit Nature: driver setup, active space selection, Jordan-Wigner mapping, and VQE optimization.
