A distributed blossom algorithm for minimum-weight perfect matching

Eric C. Peterson, Peter J. Karalekas

We describe a distributed, asynchronous variant of Edmonds's exact algorithm for producing perfect matchings of minimum weight. The development of this algorithm is driven by an ap…

Optimal synthesis into fixed XX interactions

Eric C. Peterson, Lev S. Bishop, Ali Javadi-Abhari

We describe an optimal procedure, as well as its efficient software implementation, for exact and approximate synthesis of two-qubit unitary operations into any prescribed discrete…

An Open-Source, Industrial-Strength Optimizing Compiler for Quantum Programs

Robert S. Smith, Eric C. Peterson, Mark G. Skilbeck +1

Quilc is an open-source, optimizing compiler for gate-based quantum programs written in Quil or QASM, two popular quantum programming languages. The compiler was designed with atte…

A quantum-classical cloud platform optimized for variational hybrid algorithms

Peter J. Karalekas, Nikolas A. Tezak, Eric C. Peterson +3

In order to support near-term applications of quantum computing, a new compute paradigm has emerged--the quantum-classical cloud--in which quantum computers (QPUs) work in tandem w…

Fixed-Depth Two-Qubit Circuits and the Monodromy Polytope

Eric C. Peterson, Gavin E. Crooks, Robert S. Smith

For a native gate set which includes all single-qubit gates, we apply results from symplectic geometry to analyze the spaces of two-qubit programs accessible within a fixed number…

Unsupervised Machine Learning on a Hybrid Quantum Computer

J. S. Otterbach, R. Manenti, N. Alidoust +27

Machine learning techniques have led to broad adoption of a statistical model of computing. The statistical distributions natively available on quantum processors are a superset of…
