H2 Resource Estimation ====================== This tutorial estimates EFTQC hardware resources for H2 with ``q2m3.core.resource_estimation``. It compares vacuum and MM-embedded Hamiltonians. Run The Script -------------- .. code-block:: bash uv run python examples/resources/h2_resource_estimation.py Minimal API Pattern ------------------- .. code-block:: python import numpy as np from q2m3.core import compare_vacuum_solvated, estimate_resources h2_symbols = ["H", "H"] h2_coords = np.array([[0.0, 0.0, 0.0], [0.0, 0.0, 0.74]]) vacuum = estimate_resources(symbols=h2_symbols, coords=h2_coords, basis="sto-3g") print(vacuum.logical_qubits) print(vacuum.toffoli_gates) comparison = compare_vacuum_solvated( symbols=h2_symbols, coords=h2_coords, mm_charges=np.array([-0.834, 0.417, 0.417, -0.834, 0.417, 0.417]), mm_coords=np.array( [ [3.0, 0.0, 0.0], [3.5, 0.8, 0.0], [3.5, -0.8, 0.0], [-3.0, 0.0, 0.0], [-3.5, 0.8, 0.0], [-3.5, -0.8, 0.0], ] ), ) print(comparison.delta_lambda_percent) Current H2 Reference Values --------------------------- The H2/STO-3G example reports these values for its default cost model: .. list-table:: :header-rows: 1 * - Metric - H2/STO-3G reference * - Logical qubits - ``115`` * - Toffoli gates - ``1,224,608`` * - Target error - Chemical-accuracy scale by default MM embedding is expected to change the resource estimate only slightly. Point charges mainly change one-electron terms. For this small H2 example, two-electron integrals dominate the resource estimate. Interpretation Boundaries ------------------------- Resource estimates describe an EFTQC algorithmic cost model. They do not predict local Catalyst compile memory, host RAM usage, or wall-clock runtime for PennyLane simulation.
