class qiskit.algorithms.VarQRTE(ansatz, initial_parameters, variational_principle=None, estimator=None, ode_solver=<class 'qiskit.algorithms.time_evolvers.variational.solvers.ode.forward_euler_solver.ForwardEulerSolver'>, lse_solver=None, num_timesteps=None, imag_part_tol=1e-07, num_instability_tol=1e-07)

Bases: VarQTE, RealTimeEvolver

Variational Quantum Real Time Evolution algorithm.

Parameters

• ansatz (QuantumCircuit) – Ansatz to be used for variational time evolution.
• initial_parameters (Mapping[Parameter, float] | Sequence[float]) – Initial parameter values for an ansatz.
• variational_principle (RealVariationalPrinciple | None) – Variational Principle to be used. Defaults to RealMcLachlanPrinciple.
• estimator (BaseEstimator | None) – An estimator primitive used for calculating expectation values of TimeEvolutionProblem.aux_operators.
• ode_solver (Type[OdeSolver] | str) – ODE solver callable that implements a SciPy OdeSolver interface or a string indicating a valid method offered by SciPy.
• lse_solver (Callable[[np.ndarray, np.ndarray], np.ndarray] | None) – Linear system of equations solver callable. It accepts A and b to solve Ax=b and returns x. If None, the default np.linalg.lstsq solver is used.
• num_timesteps (int | None) – The number of timesteps to take. If None, it is automatically selected to achieve a timestep of approximately 0.01. Only relevant in case of the ForwardEulerSolver.
• imag_part_tol (float) – Allowed value of an imaginary part that can be neglected if no imaginary part is expected.
• num_instability_tol (float) – The amount of negative value that is allowed to be rounded up to 0 for quantities that are expected to be non-negative.
