Framework for robust quantum speedups in practical correlated electronic structure and dynamics

Abstract:Proposed quantum advantage in electronic structure has so far required significant fine-tuning to find problems where classical heuristics fail. We describe how to obtain robust quantum speedups for correlated electronic structure and dynamics precisely in the regime where widely used classical heuristics are most successful.
