Applications of entanglement renormalization in comparison with density functionals on the quantum computer
We perform computations of quantities relevant for density functional theory including uniform gases in a variety of situations with entanglement renormalization methods. The end-goal is to determine where the limits of existing classical methods are for obtaining quantities relevant for density functional theory. In this case, we solve for energies for the uniform gas in a variety of situations, not just for the ground state. The limitations on these methods demonstrates where quantum computers can be used to solve for density functional theory approximations beyond what is currently known.
