Variational Forms

qiskit.chemistry.components.variational_forms

These are chemistry specific Aqua Variational Forms where they inherit from Aqua VariationalForm. As they rely on chemistry specific knowledge and/or functions they live here rather than in Aqua.

Variational Forms

UCCSDThis trial wavefunction is a Unitary Coupled-Cluster Single and Double excitations variational form.
UVCCThis trial wavefunction is a Unitary Vibrational Coupled-Cluster Single and Double excitations variational form.
CHCThis trial wavefunction is the Compact Heuristic for Chemistry.
