In this work, we consider extending these algorithms to tackle calculating excited states. Inspired by the weighted subspace-search variational quantum eigensolver al-gorithm, we propose a novel weighted feedback-based quantum algorithm for excited state calculation. We show that depending on how we design the weights and the feedback law, we can prepare the pth excited state or lowest energy states up to the pth excited state. Through an application in quantum chemistry, we show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, evaluating its efficacy via numerical simulations. © 2024 IEEE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessExcited StatesFalqonNisq DevicesQuantum Lyapunov ControlVariational Quantum AlgorithmsWfqaeConference Object169175110.1109/QCE60285.2024.000292-s2.0-85217422080N/AN/A
