qiskit-quimb

Simulate Qiskit circuits using quimb.

Installation

pip install qiskit-quimb

Code example

import quimb.tensor
from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, QuantumRegister
from qiskit_quimb import quimb_circuit

# Build a Qiskit circuit
qubits = QuantumRegister(2)
circuit = QuantumCircuit(qubits)
a, b = qubits
circuit.h(a)
circuit.cx(a, b)

# Convert it to a quimb circuit
quimb_circ = quimb_circuit(circuit)

# Sample 10 bitstrings
samples = list(quimb_circ.sample(10, seed=1234))
print(samples)

# You can specify the quimb Circuit subclass and keyword arguments for the constructor
quimb_circ = quimb_circuit(
    circuit, quimb_circuit_class=quimb.tensor.CircuitMPS, max_bond=20
)
samples = list(quimb_circ.sample(10, seed=1234))
print(samples)
