ProductFormula
The (higher order) Suzuki-Trotter product formula.
The Suzuki-Trotter formulas improve the error of the Lie-Trotter approximation. For example, the second order decomposition is
\[e^{A + B} \approx e^{B/2} e^{A} e^{B/2}.\]Higher order decompositions are based on recursions, see Ref. [1] for more details.
In this implementation, the operators are provided as sum terms of a Pauli operator. For example, in the second order Suzuki-Trotter decomposition we approximate
\[e^{-it(XX + ZZ)} = e^{-it/2 ZZ}e^{-it XX}e^{-it/2 ZZ} + \mathcal{O}(t^3).\]Références
