Abstract
Quantum phase estimation is at the heart of most quantum algorithms with exponential speedup. In this paper we demonstrate how to utilize it to compute the dynamical response functions of many-body quantum systems. Specifically, we design a circuit that acts as an efficient quantum generative model, providing samples out of the spectral function of high rank observables in polynomial time. This includes many experimentally relevant spectra such as the dynamic structure factor, the optical conductivity, or the NMR spectrum. Experimental realization of the algorithm, apart from logarithmic overhead, requires doubling the number of qubits as compared to a simple analog simulator. ©2021 American Physical Society
