Correction scheme for total energy obtained on fault-tolerant quantum computer via quantum dominant orbital selection and subspace dynamical correlation methods

This paper proposes a hybrid quantum-classical scheme utilizing quantum dominant orbital selection (QDOS) and subspace dynamical correlation (SDC) to accurately evaluate molecular energies on fault-tolerant quantum computers while avoiding the computational bottleneck of extracting full wavefunction data.

ChemNavigator: Agentic AI Discovery of Design Rules for Organic Photocatalysts

The paper introduces ChemNavigator, an agentic AI system that autonomously integrates large language model reasoning with computational chemistry to discover six statistically significant, chemically grounded design rules for organic photocatalysts, outperforming previous machine learning approaches by independently deriving interpretable structure-property relationships through a hypothesis-driven scientific workflow.
