Optimal estimation of quantum state overlap - Circuit implementation?
I've been reading this paper, but don't understand what their optimal method really is, and how it can be realized as a quantum circuit.
The paper mentions the "Schur transform" which has a ...

Sequential circuit using quantum gates
Without feedback/loop how can we build a sequential circuit? The basic feature of sequential circuit is that is depends not only on the current inputs but also on the previous inputs/outputs. I've ...

Quantum State Tomography Implementation in IBMQ
I am working to understand quantum state tomography, specifically using the algorithm presented in PRL 108, 070502. This paper is referenced in IBMQ implementations of QST, both in old deprecated ...

Could the Hamiltonian of a 2x2 Rubik's Cube be simulated with a NISQ device?
Consider the four cells on each of the six faces of the 2x2x2 Rubik's cube (the pocket cube). We can construct and simulate a quarter-turn Hamiltonian as below. $^*$
Let $\langle F_1,U_1,R_1\rangle$ ...

Equivalence checking of quantum circuits up to error
Suppose you are given two circuit descriptions $A$ and $B$ where by a circuit description I mean a sequence of gates (in the order they are applied) and the qubits they are applied on. (For the sake ...

Bell State 11 not working for parity curve
I am currently writing a script to automate the creation of parity curves for a 2 qubit bell state and then calculate fidelity and proving entanglement from that (inspired by this paper). It was going ...

How exactly is the stated composite state of the two registers being produced using the $R_{zz}$ controlled rotations?
This is a sequel to How are two different registers being used as "control"?
I found the following quantum circuit given in Fig 5 (page 6) of the same paper i.e. Quantum Circuit Design for ...

Is circuit cutting equivalent in anyway to quantum teleportation?
I've been introduced recently to circuit cutting, and after seeing the 4 orthogonal measurements with their 8 corresponding initializations but no initial transfer of classical info, the first thing ...

What is the computational complexity of decomposing operators in terms of quantum gates?
I have recently worked on a problem involving a rather large Hamiltonian, which I wrote some Python code for its generation following the method in this paper.
No when I used qiskits ...

Arbitrary rotations in the plane spanned by two known quantum states
Suppose I have two quantum states $|\psi_1\rangle,|\psi_2\rangle$ that I know how to prepare from some fixed initial state, say $|0\rangle^{\otimes N}$ on some $N$ qubits with known quantum circuits $...

How to get the compiled circuits and measurements from a Qiskit Runtime job
I have not been able to find any way to retrieve the compiled circuits and the measurement counts used for a Qiskit Runtime job. This page describes the various error suppression mechanisms available. ...

What is the best way to use loop statements on a quantum computer?
I am interested in solving a time dependent linear partial differential equation of the form $Ax=b$ which, in classical computing, would amount to looping over solutions of $Ax=b$ where $b$ is updated ...

Can anybody explain or suggest a good reference on how to make a modular exponentiation circuit for N=15 with any coprime base?
I have read many papers related to it but in every paper, they just show the circuit of order finding algorithm for N=15, but did not explain what is the procedure to make it.
It will be great if ...

Results from looped experiments on IBM Q different than individual experiments
I'm experiencing an issue while using Qiskit where the counts from a job return vastly different values when ran in a loop or as an array of circuits as opposed to single experiments when run by ...
