Abstract
Quantum Computation Some of the most likely first applications of future quantum computers may be in quantum chemistry. Even with currently available quantum computers consisting of just a few qubits, it is possible to address certain simple problems, but most of the development has occurred in systems using superconducting qubits. Hempel et al. used up to four qubits encoded by trapped ions to calculate the ground-state energies of two simple molecules, H2 and LiH. They made use of a hybrid classical-quantum method called the variational quantum eigensolver, which relegates parts of the computation such as preprocessing and optimization to a classical computer.
