论文摘要
为了探索近期中间尺度量子算法和长期耐断层量子计算的可能性,需要快速且通用的量子电路模拟器。在这里,我们介绍了Qulacs,这是一种用于研究目的的量子电路的快速模拟器。我们展示了Qulacs的主要概念,解释了如何通过示例使用其功能,描述数值技术来加速模拟,并通过数值基准演示其性能。
To explore the possibilities of a near-term intermediate-scale quantum algorithm and long-term fault-tolerant quantum computing, a fast and versatile quantum circuit simulator is needed. Here, we introduce Qulacs, a fast simulator for quantum circuits intended for research purpose. We show the main concepts of Qulacs, explain how to use its features via examples, describe numerical techniques to speed-up simulation, and demonstrate its performance with numerical benchmarks.
