Researchers developed qDRIVE, a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm that accelerates molecular resonance identification by combining variational quantum eigensolvers with high-throughput computing (HTC). The method leverages complex absorbing potentials to simplify resonance calculations. The algorithm breaks resonance problems into parallel, asynchronous tasks executed via HTC, drastically reducing computation time. This hybrid approach optimizes resource use by running independent quantum-classical workflows simultaneously. Simulations on current and near-term quantum processors confirm qDRIVE’s ability to accurately identify resonance energies and wavefunctions. Results suggest compatibility with existing and upcoming quantum hardware. Applications span photocatalysis, quantum control, and computational chemistry, where precise resonance data is critical. The method highlights heterogeneous computing’s potential to solve complex molecular problems. Published in November 2025, the work underscores how integrating quantum and classical systems can overcome limitations in molecular simulations, offering a scalable path for future advancements.

Here we identify molecular resonances with a method that combines quantum computing with classical high-throughput computing (HTC). This algorithm, which we term qDRIVE (the quantum deflation resonance identification variational eigensolver) exploits the complex absorbing potential formalism to distill the problem of molecular resonance identification into a network of hybrid quantum-classical variational quantum eigensolver tasks, and harnesses HTC resources to execute these interconnected but independent tasks both asynchronously and in parallel, a strategy that minimizes wall time to completion. We show qDRIVE successfully identifies resonance energies and wavefunctions in simulated quantum processors with current and planned specifications, which bodes well for qDRIVE's ultimate application in disciplines ranging from photocatalysis to quantum control and places a spotlight on the potential offered by integrated heterogenous quantum computing/HTC approaches in computational chemistry.
