MatrixEvolution
class MatrixEvolution
Bases: qiskit.opflow.evolutions.evolution_base.EvolutionBase
Performs Evolution by classical matrix exponentiation, constructing a circuit with UnitaryGates or HamiltonianGates containing the exponentiation of the Operator.
Methods Defined Here
convert
MatrixEvolution.convert(operator)
Traverse the operator, replacing EvolvedOps with CircuitOps containing UnitaryGates or HamiltonianGates (if self.coeff is a ParameterExpression) equalling the exponentiation of -i * operator. This is done by converting the EvolvedOp.primitive to a MatrixOp and simply calling .exp_i() on that.
Parameters
operator (OperatorBase) – The Operator to convert.
Return type
OperatorBase
Returns
The converted operator.
