Quantum chemistry on NISQ devices

Project description: For noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, unitary coupled-cluster (UCC) theory, with applications to the electronic Schrödinger equation, is considered one of the most promising application areas. Possible master projects include the study of UCC and its variants, simulation of UCC-based calculations, development of new approaches, and investigation of the effects of noise and error mitigation or correction.
