Qiskit (Quantum Information Software Kit) is an open-source software development kit (SDK) for working with quantum Computers at the level of circuits, pulses, and algorithms. It provides tools for creating and manipulating quantum programs and running them on prototype quantum devices on IBM Quantum Platform or on simulators on a local computer.
For combinatorial optimization, the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) [6] briefly had a better approximation ratio than any known polynomial time classical algorithm (for a certain problem), [7] until a more effective classical algorithm was proposed. [8] The relative speed-up of the quantum algorithm is an open research question.
Below is a simple example of how the Deutsch–Jozsa algorithm can be implemented in Python using Qiskit, an open-source quantum computing software development framework by IBM. We will walk through each part of the code step by step to show how it translates the theory into a working quantum circuit.
In quantum computing, a quantum algorithm is an algorithm that runs on a realistic model of quantum computation, the most commonly used model being the quantum circuit model of computation. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] A classical (or non-quantum) algorithm is a finite sequence of instructions, or a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem, where each step ...
Quantum circuit algorithms can be implemented on integrated circuits, conducted with instrumentation, or written in a programming language for use with a quantum computer or a quantum processor. With quantum processor based systems, quantum programming languages help express quantum algorithms using high-level constructs. [1]
Cirq was developed by the Google AI Quantum Team, and the public alpha was announced at the International Workshop on Quantum Software and Quantum Machine Learning on July 18, 2018. [2] A demo by QC Ware showed an implementation of QAOA solving an example of the maximum cut problem being solved on a Cirq simulator.
Circuit based quantum algorithms can be created through a graphical user interface or through the Python-based Quantum Inspire SDK, providing a backend for the projectQ framework, the Qiskit framework. Quantum Inspire provides a knowledge base [22] with user guides and some example algorithms written in cQASM.
QuTiP, short for the Quantum Toolbox in Python, is an open-source computational physics software library for simulating quantum systems, particularly open quantum systems. [1] [2] QuTiP allows simulation of Hamiltonians with arbitrary time-dependence, allowing simulation of situations of interest in quantum optics, ion trapping, superconducting circuits and quantum nanomechanical resonators.
