Namespace: Microsoft.Quantum.Chemistry.JordanWigner.VQE
Package: Microsoft.Quantum.Chemistry
Estimates the energy of the molecule by summing the energy contributed by the individual Jordan-Wigner terms.
operation EstimateEnergy (jwHamiltonian : Microsoft.Quantum.Chemistry.JordanWigner.JordanWignerEncodingData, nSamples : Int) : Double
Description
This operation implicitly relies on the spin up-down indexing convention.
Input
jwHamiltonian : JordanWignerEncodingData
The Jordan-Wigner Hamiltonian.
nSamples : Int
The number of samples to use for the estimation of the term expectations.
Output : Double
The estimated energy of the molecule
