Quantum Hamiltonian Simulation Working Group

The Quantum Hamiltonian Simulation Working Group is an international collaboration that brings together academic and industry experts to advance quantum computational methods for simulating complex quantum physical systems. Established in New York in 2026, the group focuses on producing theoretical insights, benchmarking frameworks, novel algorithms, and refinements of existing methods across key problem areas, including ground and excited states, time evolution, and thermal states.

Through rigorous research and collaborative exchange of ideas and techniques, the group works to benchmark classical and quantum algorithms for Hamiltonian simulation to identify and investigate open problems, technical challenges, and opportunities associated with the use of quantum computers, particularly in hybrid quantum-classical settings.
