Chapter4 Quantum dynamics simulation

In this chapter, we will learn about quantum dynamics simulation, which is considered as one of the most important applications of NISQ devices. First, in section 4-1, we will learn the minimum necessary knowledge to understand quantum dynamics, and in section 4-2, we implement a simulation of the dynamics of a concrete physical system using Qulacs.

*This chapter requires background knowledge of quantum mechanics. Readers unfamiliar with quantum mechanics may either skip it or refer to the references on quantum mechanics listed in the README, e.g. 2.2 The postulates of quantum mechanics by Nielsen-Chuang.
