Time Overhead

The quantum circuit model allows gates between any pair of qubits yet physical instantiations allow only limited interactions. We address this problem by providing an interaction graph together with an efficient method for compiling quantum circuits so that gates are applied only locally. The graph requires each qubit to interact with 4 other qubits and yet the time-overhead for implementing any n-qubit quantum circuit is 4 log n. Building a network of quantum computing nodes according to this graph enables the network to emulate a single monolithic device with minimal overhead.

Degree Of Entanglement

This paper shows a novel quantum computing model that solves quantum computing problems based on the degree of entanglement. We show two main theorems: the first theorem shows the quantum circuit that can be used to quantify the concurrence value between two adjacent qubits. The second theorem shows the quantum circuit of a proposed operator, called [Formula: see text] operator, which can be used to differentiate between the non-orthogonal states in the form [Formula: see text], with arbitrary accuracy, using the concurrence value. Then, the mathematical machinery for implementing the proposed model and its techniques using the circuit model is investigated extensively.

AbstractWe demonstrate the use of genetic programming in the automatic invention of quantum computing circuits that solve problems of potential theoretical and practical significance. We outline a developmental genetic programming scheme for such applications; in this scheme the evolved programs, when executed, build quantum circuits and the resulting quantum circuits are then tested for “fitness” using a quantum computer simulator. Using the PushGP genetic programming system and the QGAME quantum computer simulator we demonstrate the invention of a new, better than classical quantum circuit for the two-oracle AND/OR problem.

Definition Of

In this work we investigate the performance of greedy randomised search (GRS) techniques to the problem of compiling quantum circuits to emerging quantum hardware. Quantum computing (QC) represents the next big step towards power consumption minimisation and CPU speed boost in the future of computing machines. Quantum computing uses quantum gates that manipulate multi-valued bits (qubits). A quantum circuit is composed of a number of qubits and a series of quantum gates that operate on those qubits, and whose execution realises a specific quantum algorithm. Current quantum computing technologies limit the qubit interaction distance allowing the execution of gates between adjacent qubits only. This has opened the way to the exploration of possible techniques aimed at guaranteeing nearest-neighbor (NN) compliance in any quantum circuit through the addition of a number of so-called swap gates between adjacent qubits. In addition, technological limitations (decoherence effect) impose that the overall duration (makespan) of the quantum circuit realization be minimized. One core contribution of the paper is the definition of two lexicographic ranking functions for quantum gate selection, using two keys: one key acts as a global closure metric to minimise the solution makespan; the second one is a local metric, which favours the mutual approach of the closest qstates pairs. We present a GRS procedure that synthesises NN-compliant quantum circuits realizations, starting from a set of benchmark instances of different size belonging to the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) class tailored for the MaxCut problem. We propose a comparison between the presented meta-heuristics and the approaches used in the recent literature against the same benchmarks, both from the CPU efficiency and from the solution quality standpoint. In particular, we compare our approach against a reference benchmark initially proposed and subsequently expanded in [1] by considering: (i) variable qubit state initialisation and (ii) crosstalk constraints that further restrict parallel gate execution.

Quantum Computing has been evolving in the last years. Although nowadays quantum algorithms performance has shown superior to their classical counterparts, quantum decoherence and additional auxiliary qubits needed for error tolerance routines have been huge barriers for quantum algorithms efficient use.These restrictions lead us to search for ways to minimize algorithms costs, i.e the number of quantum logical gates and the depth of the circuit. For this, quantum circuit synthesis and quantum circuit optimization techniques are explored.We studied the viability of using Projective Simulation, a reinforcement learning technique, to tackle the problem of quantum circuit synthesis. The agent had the task of creating quantum circuits up to 5 qubits. Our simulations demonstrated that the agent had a good performance but its capacity for learning new circuits decreased as the number of qubits increased.

This paper addresses the problem of finding the depth overhead that will be incurred when running quantum circuits on near-term quantum computers. Specifically, it is envisaged that near-term quantum computers will have low qubit connectivity: each qubit will only be able to interact with a subset of the other qubits, a reality typically represented by a qubit interaction graph in which a vertex represents a qubit and an edge represents a possible direct 2-qubit interaction (gate). Thus the depth overhead is unavoidably incurred by introducing swap gates into the quantum circuit to enable general qubit interactions. This paper proves that there exist quantum circuits where a depth overhead in Omega(\log n) must necessarily be incurred when running quantum circuits with n qubits on quantum computers whose qubit interaction graph has finite degree, but that such a logarithmic depth overhead is achievable. The latter is shown by the construction of a 4-regular qubit interaction graph and associated compilation algorithm that can execute any quantum circuit with only a logarithmic depth overhead.

Abstract The number of transistors per unit area are increasing every year by virtue of Moore’s law. It is estimated that the current rate of evolution in the field of chip design will reduce the transistor to atomic scale by 2024. At atomic level the quantum mechanical characteristics dominate, affecting the ability of transistors to store information in the form of bits. The quantum computers have been proposed as one way to effectively deal with this predicament. The quantum computing circuits utilize the spinning characteristics of electron to store information. This paper describes a proposition of resource efficient FPGA based quantum circuit abstraction. A non-programmable embedded system capable of storing, introducing a phase shift in the qubit and its measurement is implemented. The main objective of the proposed abstraction is to provide a FPGA based platform comprising of fundamental sub blocks for designing quantum circuits. A primary quantum key distribution algorithm i.e BB84 is implemented on the proposed platform as a proof of concept. The distinguishing feature of the proposed design is the flexibility to enhance the quantum circuit emulation accuracy at the cost of computational resources. The proposed emulation exhibits two principal properties of the quantum computing i.e. parallelism and probabilistic measurement.

Equivalence Check

We describe a computational problem that is complete for the complexity class QMA, a quantum generalization of NP. It arises as a natural question in quantum computing and quantum physics. "Non-identity-check" is the following decision problem: Given a classical description of a quantum circuit (a sequence of elementary gates), determine whether it is almost equivalent to the identity. Explicitly, the task is to decide whether the corresponding unitary is close to a complex multiple of the identity matrix with respect to the operator norm. We show that this problem is QMA-complete. A generalization of this problem is "non-equivalence check": given two descriptions of quantum circuits and a description of a common invariant subspace, decide whether the restrictions of the circuits to this subspace almost coincide. We show that non-equivalence check is also in QMA and hence QMA-complete.

AbstractAs quantum computation grows, the number of qubits involved in a given quantum computer increases. But due to the physical limitations in the number of qubits of a single quantum device, the computation should be performed in a distributed system. In this paper, a new model of quantum computation based on the matrix representation of quantum circuits is proposed. Then, using this model, we propose a novel approach for reducing the number of teleportations in a distributed quantum circuit. The proposed method consists of two phases: the pre-processing phase and the optimization phase. In the pre-processing phase, it considers the bi-partitioning of quantum circuits by Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-III) to minimize the number of global gates and to distribute the quantum circuit into two balanced parts with equal number of qubits and minimum number of global gates. In the optimization phase, two heuristics named Heuristic I and Heuristic II are proposed to optimize the number of teleportations according to the partitioning obtained from the pre-processing phase. Finally, the proposed approach is evaluated on many benchmark quantum circuits. The results of these evaluations show an average of 22.16% improvement in the teleportation cost of the proposed approach compared to the existing works in the literature.

Abstract We propose that finite cutoff regions of holographic spacetimes represent quantum circuits that map between boundary states at different times and Wilsonian cutoffs, and that the complexity of those quantum circuits is given by the gravitational action. The optimal circuit minimizes the gravitational action. This is a generalization of both the “complexity equals volume” conjecture to unoptimized circuits, and path integral optimization to finite cutoffs. Using tools from holographic $$ T\overline{T} $$ T T ¯ , we find that surfaces of constant scalar curvature play a special role in optimizing quantum circuits. We also find an interesting connection of our proposal to kinematic space, and discuss possible circuit representations and gate counting interpretations of the gravitational action.
