Description

VQE with STC is implemented entirely in main.py. Experiments can be performed with statevector, noisy simulation backends, and real devices. For completeness, older versions of the codebase (not using Qiskit runtime) can be found in the "legacy" branch.

Install

Ensure Python version is 3.10 (recommended to use pyenv).

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install qiskit-terra==0.22.4

rm -rf qiskit-ignis
