Randomized gap and amplitude estimation (1603.03672v2)
Published 11 Mar 2016 in quant-ph
Abstract: We provide a method for estimating spectral gaps in low-dimensional systems. Unlike traditional phase estimation, our approach does not require ancillary qubits nor does it require well characterised gates. Instead, it only requires the ability to perform approximate Haar-random unitary operations, applying the unitary whose eigenspectrum is sought out and performing measurements in the computational basis. We discuss application of these ideas to in-place amplitude estimation and quantum device calibration.
