Project
Adaptive Localized Quantum Subspace Methods for Large-Scale Molecular Electronic Structure Simulation
Objective
Develop a scalable hybrid quantum–classical framework for electronic-structure simulation of large and strongly correlated molecular systems using sample-based quantum diagonalization and localized active-space techniques.
Outcome
The goal is not simply to reproduce an existing algorithm, but to build an adaptive, resource-aware quantum chemistry workflow on top of recent state-of-the-art methods, benchmark it against classical approaches, and investigate pathways toward increasingly large molecular simulations.

richa goel' Comment

the project aims to answer:
Can quantum-generated electronic configurations be combined with adaptive active-space selection and classical determinant expansion to reduce the quantum resources required for accurate electronic-structure calculations as molecular size increases?
