Operator Evolutions (:mod:`qiskit.opflow.evolutions`)
=====================================================

.. currentmodule:: qiskit.opflow.evolutions

.. deprecated:: 0.24.0

    The :mod:`qiskit.opflow` module is deprecated and will be removed no earlier
    than 3 months after the release date. For code migration guidelines,
    visit https://qisk.it/opflow_migration.

Evolutions are converters which traverse an Operator tree, replacing
any :class:`EvolvedOp` `e` with a Schrodinger equation-style evolution
:class:`~qiskit.opflow.primitive_ops.CircuitOp`
equalling or approximating the matrix exponential of -i * the Operator contained inside
(`e.primitive`). The Evolutions are essentially implementations of Hamiltonian Simulation
algorithms, including various methods for Trotterization.

The :class:`EvolvedOp` is simply a placeholder signifying that the Operator inside it should be
converted to its exponential by the Evolution converter. All Operators
(not :mod:`~qiskit.opflow.state_fns`) have
``.exp_i()`` methods which either return the exponential of the Operator directly,
or an :class:`EvolvedOp` containing the Operator.


Note:
    Evolutions work with parameterized Operator coefficients, so
    ``my_expectation.convert((t * H).exp_i())``, where t is a scalar or Terra Parameter and H
    is an Operator, will produce a :class:`~qiskit.opflow.primitive_ops.CircuitOp`
    equivalent to e^iHt.

Evolution Base Class
--------------------

The EvolutionBase class gives an interface for algorithms to ask for Evolutions as
execution settings. For example, if an algorithm contains an Operator evolution step within it,
such as :class:`~qiskit.algorithms.QAOA`, the algorithm can give the opportunity for the user
to pass an EvolutionBase of their choice to be used in that evolution step.
