How to find expressible and trainable parameterized quantum circuits?

Whether parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) can be systematically constructed to be both trainable and expressive remains an open question. Highly expressive PQCs often exhibit barren plateaus, while several trainable alternatives admit efficient classical simulation. We address this question by deriving a finite-sample, dimension-independent concentration bound for estimating the variance of a PQC cost function, yielding explicit trainability guarantees. Across commonly used ans\"atze, we observe an anticorrelation between trainability and expressibility, consistent with theoretical insights. Building on this observation, we propose a property-based ansatz-search framework for identifying circuits that combine trainability and expressibility. We demonstrate its practical viability on a real quantum computer and apply it to variational quantum algorithms. We identify quantum neural network ans\"atze with improved effective dimension using over $6 \times$ fewer parameters, and for VQE on $\mathrm{H}_2$ we achieve UCCSD-like accuracy at substantially reduced circuit complexity.
