PauliComposer: Compute Tensor Products of Pauli Matrices Efficiently

Published 2 Jan 2023 in quant-ph and physics.comp-ph | (2301.00560v2)

Abstract: We introduce a simple algorithm that efficiently computes tensor products of Pauli matrices. This is done by tailoring the calculations to this specific case, which allows to avoid unnecessary calculations. The strength of this strategy is benchmarked against state-of-the-art techniques, showing a remarkable acceleration. As a side product, we provide an optimized method for one key calculus in quantum simulations: the Pauli basis decomposition of Hamiltonians.
