Abstract
Abstract Linear combination of unitaries (LCU) decompositions have become a key tool for encoding operators on quantum computers, enabling efficient implementations of arbitrary operators. In particular, LCU methods provide a way to encode the electronic structure Hamiltonian into quantum circuits. Over the years, various decomposition techniques have been developed for this purpose. Here, we introduce the Majorana tensor decomposition, a framework that unifies existing LCU approaches and introduces novel decompositions using low-rank tensor factorizations. We benchmark a range of decomposition techniques on small molecular systems and hydrogen chains of increasing sizes, evaluating their performance across different LCU methods.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
