Completeness for flow-preserving rewrite rules

Miriam Backens, Simon Perdrix

Complete sets of graphical rewrite rules enable fully graphical reasoning about quantum computations and have been an area of active research for more than a decade. Many recent ap…

Invariants in Linear Optics

Sébastien Draux, Simon Perdrix, Emmanuel Jeandel +1

Linear optics (LO) prohibits certain transformations. In this paper, we study the conditions for a computation to be possible in LO. We find that there are finitely many polynomial…

Diagrammatic Reasoning with Control as a Constructor, Applications to Quantum Circuits

Noé Delorme, Simon Perdrix

Control is a fundamental concept in quantum and reversible computational models. It enables the conditional application of a transformation to a system, depending on the state of a…

Deciding Local Unitary Equivalence of Graph States in Quasi-Polynomial Time

Nathan Claudet, Simon Perdrix

We describe an algorithm with quasi-polynomial runtime for deciding local unitary (LU) equivalence of graph states. The algorithm builds on a recent graphical…

Local equivalence of stabilizer states: a graphical characterisation

Nathan Claudet, Simon Perdrix

Stabilizer states form a ubiquitous family of quantum states that can be graphically represented through the graph state formalism. A fundamental property of graph states is that a…
