In past three presentations, we have reported an education-oriented quantum computation system based on the Blueqat simulator for quantum chemical calculations. Here, we demonstrate a sizable speeding-up of computational time by introducing spatial symmetries in generating excited determinants to span UCCSD ansatz. A further improvement is obtainable by the use of the Qgate GPU-based accelerator. The hydrogen molecule is used as an illustrative example.
