# BaseQGT
<Class id="qiskit.algorithms.gradients.BaseQGT" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.23/qiskit/algorithms/gradients/base_qgt.py" signature="BaseQGT(estimator, phase_fix=True, derivative_type=DerivativeType.COMPLEX, options=None)" modifiers="class">
Bases: `abc.ABC`
Base class to computes the Quantum Geometric Tensor (QGT) given a pure, parameterized quantum state. QGT is defined as:
$$
\mathrm{QGT}_{ij}= \langle \partial_i \psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle
- \langle\partial_i \psi | \psi \rangle \langle\psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle.
$$
**Parameters**
* **estimator** ([*BaseEstimator*](qiskit.primitives.BaseEstimator "qiskit.primitives.BaseEstimator")) The estimator used to compute the QGT.
* **phase\_fix** (*bool*) Whether to calculate the second term (phase fix) of the QGT, which is $\langle\partial_i \psi | \psi \rangle \langle\psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle$. Defaults to `True`.
* **derivative\_type** ([*DerivativeType*](qiskit.algorithms.gradients.DerivativeType "qiskit.algorithms.gradients.DerivativeType"))
The type of derivative. Can be either `DerivativeType.REAL` `DerivativeType.IMAG`, or `DerivativeType.COMPLEX`. Defaults to `DerivativeType.REAL`.
* `DerivativeType.REAL` computes
$$
\mathrm{Re(QGT)}_{ij}= \mathrm{Re}[\langle \partial_i \psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle
- \langle\partial_i \psi | \psi \rangle \langle\psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle].
$$
* `DerivativeType.IMAG` computes
$$
\mathrm{Im(QGT)}_{ij}= \mathrm{Im}[\langle \partial_i \psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle
- \langle\partial_i \psi | \psi \rangle \langle\psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle].
$$
* `DerivativeType.COMPLEX` computes
$$
\mathrm{QGT}_{ij}= [\langle \partial_i \psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle
- \langle\partial_i \psi | \psi \rangle \langle\psi | \partial_j \psi \rangle].
$$
* **options** ([*Options*](qiskit.providers.Options "qiskit.providers.Options") *| None*) Backend runtime options used for circuit execution. The order of priority is: options in `run` method > QGTs default options > primitives default setting. Higher priority setting overrides lower priority setting.
## Methods
### run
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.gradients.BaseQGT.run" signature="BaseQGT.run(circuits, parameter_values, parameters=None, **options)">
Run the job of the QGTs on the given circuits.
**Parameters**
* **circuits** The list of quantum circuits to compute the QGTs.
* **parameter\_values** The list of parameter values to be bound to the circuit.
* **parameters** The sequence of parameters to calculate only the QGTs of the specified parameters. Each sequence of parameters corresponds to a circuit in `circuits`. Defaults to None, which means that the QGTs of all parameters in each circuit are calculated.
* **options** Primitive backend runtime options used for circuit execution. The order of priority is: options in `run` method > QGTs default options > primitives default setting. Higher priority setting overrides lower priority setting.
**Returns**
The job object of the QGTs of the expectation values. The i-th result corresponds to `circuits[i]` evaluated with parameters bound as `parameter_values[i]`.
**Raises**
**ValueError** Invalid arguments are given.
</Function>
### update\_default\_options
<Function id="qiskit.algorithms.gradients.BaseQGT.update_default_options" signature="BaseQGT.update_default_options(**options)">
Update the gradients default options setting.
**Parameters**
**\*\*options** The fields to update the default options.
</Function>
## Attributes
### derivative\_type
<Attribute id="qiskit.algorithms.gradients.BaseQGT.derivative_type">
The derivative type.
**Return type**
[`DerivativeType`](qiskit.algorithms.gradients.DerivativeType "qiskit.algorithms.gradients.utils.DerivativeType")
</Attribute>
### options
<Attribute id="qiskit.algorithms.gradients.BaseQGT.options">
Return the union of estimator options setting and QGT default options, where, if the same field is set in both, the QGTs default options override the primitives default setting.
**Return type**
[`Options`](qiskit.providers.Options "qiskit.providers.options.Options")
**Returns**
The QGT default + estimator options.
