Dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) has emerged as one of the main workhorses for the accurate numerical simulation of materials from first principles in regimes of strong correlation. In this talk, we discuss novel routes towards enhancing the predictive abilities of DMFT by integrating quantum algorithms into its pipeline in a hybrid quantum-classical approach [arXiv:2304.06587] and point out algorithmic advancements which are necessary to bring down the overall complexity of the method.

We leverage the representational power of tensor networks as a classical description of the Hamiltonian's ground state. To extract dynamical properties, we employ a quantum algorithm simulating a real-time evolution of the state [arXiv:2205.00094], which naturally increases the entanglement and limits the applicability of classical wavefunction methods. We discuss optimizations of the tensor network representation, as well as improvements to its compilation into a shallow quantum circuit, which tailors the approach for applications in practically relevant scenarios and increases its potential to eventually enable simulations that are out of reach of classical techniques.
