  1. / 01

    Computational purpose

    A family combining a parameterized state or representation, an energy objective and an optimization loop.

    Workloads are evaluated against a defined Hamiltonian, ansatz and convergence criterion.

Profile scope

A VQE run is not by itself proof of the exact ground-state energy. The Hamiltonian, ansatz and verification method define the result. The platform is described as supporting service profiles up to 400 logical qubits; this is not a blanket guarantee for arbitrary circuits or every operator.
