Description
An efficient implementation of the quantum gradient of the logarithm-determinant is demonstrated. The algorithm is shown to compare with existing methods on the quantum computer and scale more favourably, exposing that the key component for this algorithm is the wavefunction preparation step, as expected. Outlook for implementation and future extensions will be discussed, as will potential applications.
