Tutorials

VQE for H2 Molecule

use logosq_algorithms::{VQE, Hamiltonian, HardwareEfficientAnsatz};

// Create a simple Hamiltonian
let mut hamiltonian = Hamiltonian::new(4);
hamiltonian.add_term(-1.0, vec![(0, Pauli::Z), (1, Pauli::Z)]);

// Create hardware-efficient ansatz
let ansatz = HardwareEfficientAnsatz::new(4, 2);

// Initialize VQE
let vqe = VQE::new(hamiltonian, ansatz)
    .with_shots(1024)
    .with_optimizer("L-BFGS");

println!("VQE configured with {} parameters", vqe.num_parameters());

QAOA for MaxCut

use logosq_algorithms::{QAOA, Graph, MaxCutProblem};

// Define a graph
let graph = Graph::from_edges(&[
    (0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 0), (0, 2)
]);

// Create MaxCut problem
let problem = MaxCutProblem::new(graph);

// Create QAOA with p=3 layers
let qaoa = QAOA::new(problem, 3).unwrap();
println!("QAOA configured");

Grover’s Search

use logosq_algorithms::{Grover, Oracle};

// Search for |101⟩ in 3-qubit space
let oracle = Oracle::from_marked_states(&[5], 3);  // 5 = 101 in binary

let grover = Grover::new(oracle).unwrap();
let result = grover.run(1000).unwrap();  // 1000 shots

println!("Found state: {}", result.most_frequent());
println!("Success probability: {:.2}%", result.success_rate() * 100.0);

Algorithm Details

Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE)

Purpose: Find ground state energy of a Hamiltonian

Pseudocode:

1. Initialize parameters θ randomly
2. Repeat until convergence:
   a. Prepare ansatz state |ψ(θ)⟩
   b. Measure expectation value E(θ) = ⟨ψ(θ)|H|ψ(θ)⟩
   c. Update θ using classical optimizer
3. Return minimum energy and optimal parameters

Complexity: O(N⁴) for molecular Hamiltonians with N orbitals

LogosQ Optimizations:

• Parallel Pauli term evaluation
• Cached circuit compilation
• Gradient computation via parameter-shift rule

QAOA

Purpose: Approximate solutions to combinatorial optimization

Pseudocode:

1. Encode problem as cost Hamiltonian H_C
2. Initialize |+⟩^n superposition
3. For each layer p:
   a. Apply e^{-iγ_p H_C}
   b. Apply e^{-iβ_p H_M} (mixer)
4. Measure and evaluate objective
5. Optimize γ, β classically

Complexity: O(p × m) where p = layers, m = problem clauses

Grover’s Algorithm

Purpose: Search unstructured database with O(√N) queries

Pseudocode:

1. Initialize |s⟩ = H^n|0⟩
2. Repeat O(√N) times:
   a. Apply oracle O (flip marked states)
   b. Apply diffusion D = 2|s⟩⟨s| - I
3. Measure

Optimal iterations: π/4 × √(N/M) where M = marked states

Hybrid Classical-Quantum Integration

Parameter Optimization Loop

use logosq_algorithms::{VQE, Hamiltonian, HardwareEfficientAnsatz};

// Create VQE instance
let hamiltonian = Hamiltonian::new(4);
let ansatz = HardwareEfficientAnsatz::new(4, 2);
let vqe = VQE::new(hamiltonian, ansatz);

// Get number of parameters for optimization
let num_params = vqe.num_parameters();
let params = vec![0.0; num_params];

// Evaluate energy
let energy = vqe.evaluate(&params).unwrap();
println!("Energy: {:.6}", energy);

Best Practices

1. Warm starting: Initialize parameters near expected solution
2. Gradient clipping: Prevent exploding gradients in deep circuits
3. Batched evaluation: Group Pauli terms for parallel measurement

Extensibility

Custom Algorithm Implementation

use logosq_algorithms::{Circuit, AlgorithmError};

struct MyAlgorithm {
    num_qubits: usize,
}

impl MyAlgorithm {
    fn build_circuit(&self) -> Circuit {
        let mut circuit = Circuit::new(self.num_qubits);
        circuit.h(0).cx(0, 1);
        circuit
    }
}

let algo = MyAlgorithm { num_qubits: 2 };
let circuit = algo.build_circuit();
println!("Circuit has {} gates", circuit.gate_count());
