WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ:WIMI) ("WiMi" or the "Company"), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality ("AR") Technology provider, today announced the research of a new quantum algorithm—the Holographic Quantum Linear Solver (HQLS), which aims to provide a more efficient and resource-efficient quantum algorithm for solving the Quantum Linear System Problem (QLSP). This algorithm is based on a combination of Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQA) and the classical shadow framework, overcoming the hardware resource bottlenecks of traditional quantum linear solver algorithms.
QLSP refers to the problem of solving linear systems of equations using quantum computing. Solutions to the QLSP often rely on the quantumization of classical linear algebra algorithms used in quantum computing. The most famous quantum linear system solving algorithm is the Harrow-Hassidim-Lloyd (HHL) algorithm, which accelerates the solution of linear systems through quantum superposition and interference. In theory, it can reduce the time complexity from the classical polynomial level to the logarithmic level of quantum computing. However, the HHL algorithm requires the use of large-scale controlled gate operations on quantum hardware, making it difficult to implement on existing quantum computers.
