Editorial: Quantum Information and Quantum Computing for Chemical Systems
Abstract
Quantum computing has emerged as an exciting inter-disciplinary research topic that cuts across the traditional fields of physics, computer science, and engineering [1].It is a revolutionary model of computation that has offered new insights into methods for modeling and simulation of chemical systems [2].Applications of quantum computing to chemistry have demonstrated rapid progress on both theoretical and experimental fronts [3].Past theoretical efforts have shown how to adapt quantum computation to a variety of problems including electronic structure and molecular dynamics.In addition, the development of quantum algorithms for quantum chemistry has been stimulated by the greater availability of more capable quantum computing devices [4].Advances in the number and quality of qubits continues to enable remarkable proof-of-concept demonstrations working towards a milestone of quantum computational advantage [5].However, many challenges remain along the way toward practical quantum advantages of quantum computing for computational chemistry.Several key examples are the development of new quantum algorithms for solving chemical problems thought to be intractable for classical computers, the efficient representation of those models within quantum computers, the verification and validation of chemical simulations using quantum computers, and the testing and evaluation of real-world problems on currently available devices.The purpose of this research topic Quantum Information and…
