# Quantum Instructions in Parallel (QuIP)¶

## Gates¶

class trueq.Gate(u, keep_global_phase=False)

Represents a unitary quantum gate.

import trueq as tq

x = tq.Gate([[0,1], [1,0]])
cz = tq.Gate([[1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, -1]])


Note

Gates are not checked to be unitary on instantiation; call Gate.is_unitary manually to check.

Many standard gates can be instantiatied through convenience attributes:

tq.Gate.id
tq.Gate.x
tq.Gate.y
tq.Gate.z

tq.Gate.h
tq.Gate.s
tq.Gate.t

tq.Gate.cx
tq.Gate.cy
tq.Gate.cz
tq.Gate.swap
tq.Gate.iswap


The static method from_generators() can be used to construct gates of the form $$exp(-1j * \sum_i (\pi\theta_i/180) P_i/ 2)$$ where $$P_i$$ are the input Pauli strings and $$\theta_i$$ are the input rotation angles in degrees. This can be input either as an alternating sequence of Pauli strings and angles, or as a dictionary.

g1 = tq.Gate.from_generators("X", 90)
g2 = tq.Gate.from_generators("XX", 90, "YY", 180)
g3 = tq.Gate.from_generators({"XX": 90, "YY": 180})


Finally, the constructor also allows gates to be entered as coefficients on the pauli basis (rather than rotation angles) as follows.

g1 = tq.Gate({"I": sp.sqrt(1/2), "X": -1j * sp.sqrt(1/2)})
g2 = tq.Gate({"II": sp.sqrt(1/2), "XY": -1j * sp.sqrt(1/2)})

Parameters
• u (numpy.ndarray-like | dict) – Either a unitary matrix in the computational basis, or a dictionary specifying coefficients of the pauli basis; see examples above.

• keep_global_phase (bool) – If False, removes the complex phase from the pauli expansion, where phase is calculated using the first non-zero expansion term. If True, does nothing.

static from_generators(*args, keep_global_phase=False)

Constructs a Gate instance from rotations about Paulis. Specifically, the gate is constructed as $$exp(-1j * \sum_i (\pi\theta_i/180) P_i/ 2)$$ where $$P_i$$ are the input Pauli strings and $$\theta_i$$ are the input rotation angles in degrees. This can be input either as an alternating sequence of Pauli strings and angles, or as a dict.

g1 = tq.Gate.from_generators("X", 90)
g2 = tq.Gate.from_generators("XX", 90, "YY", 180)
g3 = tq.Gate.from_generators({"XX": 90, "YY": 180})

Parameters
• args – A dictionary mapping Pauli strings to angles in degrees, or an alternating sequence thereof.

• keep_global_phase (bool) – If False, removes the complex phase from the pauli expansion, where phase is calculated using the first non-zero expansion term. If True, does nothing.

Type

bool

Returns a Gate from common names, such as CX, swap, H, S etc.

ALIASES is a dictionary which stores available gates.

Raises

property generators

Returns rotations about Pauli axes performed by this Gate. Specifically, outputs a description of this gate in the form: $$exp(-1j * \sum_i (\pi\theta_i/180) P_i/ 2)$$ where $$P_i$$ are the Pauli strings and $$\theta_i$$ are the rotation angles in degrees.

g1 = tq.Gate.from_generators("X", 90).generators
{"X": 90}
g2 = tq.Gate.from_generators("X", 90, "Z", 20).generators
{"X": 90, "Z": 20}

Type

dict

## Native Gates¶

class trueq.NativeGate(name, u, params=None, classname=None, keep_global_phase=False)

A Gate-like object that also contains a name and parameters used on a physical system.

This class is a thin layer on top of Gate to additionally store gate names and parameters used to construct the gate by the physical system. From the perspective of a NativeGate, this information is static throughout its lifetime and treated as meta-data.

Native gates are typically (and most easily) constructed by trueq.config.GateFactory’s, which are usually owned by trueq.Config objects.

>>> conf = Config(file)
>>> gate = conf.x(phi=90)
>>> gate
NativeGate.conf_name.x(phi=90)
>>> gate.parameters
{"phi": 90}
>>> gate.name
x


Native gates are not intended to be mutable, and the parameters and names should not be changed after instantiation.

Parameters
• name (str) – Name of the gate operation.

• u (dict) – See Gate.

• params (dict) – Any parameters that the gate needs in order to be constructed.

• classname (str) – This is used for recordkeeping in the trueq.config.GateFactory.

• keep_global_phase (bool) – If False, removes the complex phase from the pauli expansion, where phase is calculated using the first non-zero expansion term. If True, does nothing.

static from_generators(name, *args, params=None, classname=None, keep_global_phase=False)

Constructs a NativeGate instance from rotations about Paulis. Also adds a name and any parameters used to construct the native gate. Specifically, the output gate in this case is given by $$exp(-1j * \sum_i (\pi\theta_i/180) P_i/ 2)$$ where $$P_i$$ are the input Pauli strings and $$\theta_i$$ are the input rotation angles in degrees. This can be input either as an alternating sequence of Pauli strings and angles, or as a dict.

g1 = tq.NativeGate.from_generators("name", {}, "X", 90)
g2 = tq.NativeGate.from_generators("name", {}, "XX", 90, "YY", 180)
g3 = tq.NativeGate.from_generators("name", {}, {"XX": 90, "YY": 180})

Parameters
• name (str) – Name of the gate operation.

• params (dict) – Any parameters that the gate needs in order to be constructed.

• args – A dictionary mapping Pauli strings to angles in degrees, or an alternating sequence thereof.

• keep_global_phase (bool) – If False, removes the complex phase from the pauli expansion, where phase is calculated using the first non-zero expansion term. If True, does nothing.

• classname (str) – This is used for recordkeeping in the trueq.config.GateFactory.

Return type

Gate

The stored parameters.

Type

dict

property name

The name of the NativeGate.

Type

str

## Cycles¶

class trueq.Cycle(content=None, immutable=None)

Represents a “clock cycle” of a Circuit; a set of Gates that happen in parallel to a disjoint set of systems. The storage format is a dict that maps tuples of system labels to Gate objects. Any given system can only be addressed once in a Cycle.

This class is iterable, yielding tuples of the form (labels, gate).

Note

We are agnostic to the physical duration of a cycle, and different cycles in a circuit do not need to have the same duration.

Parameters
add(labels, operator)

Adds a Operator to this Cycle. In particular, this can be a Gate, NativeGate, Prep, or Meas.

Parameters

## Circuits¶

class trueq.Circuit(cycles=None, key=None, results=None)

Represents a quantum Circuit to be performed on a device, along with relevant additional information about the circuit.

Note

All True-Qᵀᴹ circuit generation and analysis methods assume that circuits are run by initializing systems independently in the ground state, applying the parallelized gates (referred to as cycles) obtained by iterating over the circuit, measuring the systems in the computational basis, and populating results with the results.

Specifically, all local gates required to rotate preparations and measurements are already included in cycles.

A circuit is stored as a list of Cycles. It also has private attributes for ease of use with randomized compiling and standard quantum algorithms.

Parameters
• cycles (list) – Cycles of the circuit. This is a list of the form, for example, [{(1,): tq.Gate.x, (0,2): tq.Gate.cz}, ...].

• key (Key) – A hashable object used to group similar circuits for analysis. For example, Key(protocol=SRB,n_random_cycles=10).

• results (Results | dict) – Results to add to the circuit on construction, see also Circuit.results.

measure_all()

Add a cycle of measurements at the end of the current circuit.

This adds trueq.Meas onto each label currently in the circuit.

property key

Type

Key

property n_sys

The number of distinct systems participating in this Circuit.

Type

int

property labels

The sorted union of all system labels acted on by gates in this Circuit.

Type

tuple

property n_cycles

property results

Results from running this Circuit on a quantum device; a dictionary whose keys are bitstrings, and whose values are total observations of corresponding bitstrings.

Bitstrings are python strings containing $$0$$ and $$1$$, e.g., '0110', see Recording Experimental Results.

The initial value of this property is {}, which implies that has_results is False.

Note that these values will internally be normalized to their sum, and not to $$1$$ —for example, with respect to all of our analysis routines, the following results are identical:

{'0': 123, '1': 4}
{'0': 1230, '1': 40}
{'0': 12300, '1': 400}

Type

dict

property has_results

Whether the results property has been set.

Type

bool

expectation_values(labels=None)

Finds the expectation value(s) of the Circuit, marginalized over specified labels.

The labels can be a list of labels, in which case each label is separately marginalized over. For example, labels = [0, 1, 2] shows the expectation value for qubits 0, 1, and 2 separately. The labels can also be a list of lists of labels; each list will be separately marginalized over. For example, labels = [[0], [1], [2]] is equivalent to labels = [0, 1, 2], but labels = [[0, 1], [2]] will report the expectation value of the subregister [0, 1] and the expectation value of the subregister 2.

If labels are not provided, they are taken from key.twirl if it exists.

Parameters

labels (list) – A list of labels (or list of lists of labels) specifying which which group(s) of subregisters to marginalize over.

Return type

A KeyMap whose keys are grouped based on labels, and whose values are lists of expectation values for those labels.

add_cycle(cycles)

Adds a Cycle to this Circuit and updates its labels with those found in the Cycle.

Parameters

cyclesCycle: A Cycle or iterable of Cycles.

property meas_locs

Returns a list of the locations of all measurements in the Circuit.

The ordering of this list is the same as the expected bit-string order in the circuit’s Results.

The order of measurements is decided first by the index of the cycle, e.g.: measurements placed in the first cycle of a circuit are returned before measurements in later cycles. Then the order inside of a cycle is decided by the label on which the measurement is placed, e.g.: measurements placed on label (0,) comes before label (5,)

The returned list contains tuples, where the first entry of tuple is the cycle index, and the second entry of the tuple is the label the measurement is on.

Examples:

circ = Circuit([{(0,): Meas()}, {(5,): Meas(), (1,): Meas()}])

circ.meas_locs
# [(0, 0), (1, 1), (1, 5)]
# Cycle 0, Qubit 0, Cycle 1, Qubit 1 and 5

Return type

list of tuple

to_dict(include_cycles=True)

Returns a dictionary representation of the Circuit object.

Parameters

include_cycles (bool) – Whether to include the cycles in the dictionary representation.

Return type

dict

static from_dict(dic)

Returns a Circuit constructed from a dictionary representation.

Return type

to_cirq(metadata=None, config='ZXZ', device=None)

Converts a True-Qᵀᴹ Circuit into an Cirq Circuit object.

import cirq
import trueq as tq

mat = cirq.ops.FSimGate(theta=5, phi=1)._unitary_()

fsim_factory = tq.config.GateFactory("fsim", matrix=mat)
x90_factory = tq.config.GateFactory("x", hamiltonian=[["X", 90]])
z_factory = tq.config.GateFactory("z", hamiltonian=[["Z", "phi"]])

config = tq.Config.from_params(
name="example",
n_sys=2,
mode="ZXZXZ",
factories=[z_factory, x90_factory, fsim_factory],
)

circ = tq.Circuit([{(0, 1): tq.Gate.cx}])

tq.interface.cirq.tq_to_cirq_circ(circ, config=config)


Note

If nothing else is provided, this automatically decomposes single qubit operations into $$R_Z(\theta)R_X(\phi)R_Z(\gamma)$$ single qubit gates.

Parameters
• circuit (Circuit) – A True-Qᵀᴹ circuit to be converted into an Cirq Circuit

• metadata (trueq.interface.metadata.CirqMetadata) – Metadata required to accurately reproduce the original cirq circuit. If this is not provided, measurements are added at the end of the circuit.

• config (Config or str) – If a Config which contains gates which are directly decomposable into Cirq native gates is provided, then conversion will take place into gates specified by that config. Additionally config also accepts text strings describing decomposition methods, strings must be of paulis which are defined in trueq.config.decomposition.QubitMode, then Gates are decomposed into all allowed Cirq gates, with single qubit operations being decomposed into the specified pauli string.

• device (None or cirq.Device) – A cirq.Device, if no device is provided, an unconstrained device with cirq.GridQubit is assumed.

Returns

A Cirq circuit representation of the Circuit

to_pyquil(metadata=None, config='ZXZ')

Converts from a Circuit to a pyquil.Program.

This accepts a metadata object which contains information not present in a trueq circuit object.

Note

Measurements are always assumed to be at the end of a circuit.

If metadata is not provided, measurements are placed at the end of the circuit on all qubits, reading out to a classical register called ‘ro’

Aribtrary single qubit gates are decomposed using the ZXZ decomposition by default.

If an SU(4) gate is provided which is not performable by Pyquil, it is decomposed using the get_pyquil_transpiler().

Parameters
• circ (Circuit) – The trueq circuit to be converted to pyquil.

• metadata (PyquilMetadata) – Metadata which may not be present in the trueq representation, but is present in pyquil.

• config (Config or str) – This is used to define the transpiler, see get_pyquil_transpiler() for more detauls.

to_qiskit(metadata=None, config=None)

Converts a True-Qᵀᴹ circuit into an Qiskit DAG object.

Note

If nothing else is provided, this adds measurements on all qubits at the end of the circuit.

Single qubit gates are reduced to the simplest they can up to numerical rounding, IE: some U3 gates become U2 or U1.

Blocking operations are added at the end of every Cycle

Parameters
• circuit (Circuit) – A TrueQ circuit to be converted into an Qiskit QuantumCircuit

• metadata (QiskitMetadata) – Metadata required to accurately reproduce the original qiskit circuit. If this is not provided, only 1 quantum register is created, and on classical register, then measurements are added at the end of the circuit mapping each quantum bit to each classical bit.

• config (Config) – A given config object which contains gates which can be performed by qiskit, but also has hardware restrictions. For example, a Config object can represent a CNOT gate that is restricted to specific sets of qubits, and a CNOT gate is a known native gate in Qiskit. Providing this config means that not only will the circuit be converted into Qiskit representation, but also that it will satisfy hardware restrictions.

Returns

A Qiskit circuit representation of the Circuit

Return type

qiskit.QuantumCircuit

## Circuit Collections¶

class trueq.CircuitCollection(circuits=None)

Represents a collection of instances of Circuit.

Parameters

circuits (list) – A list of Circuits to initially populate this collection with, or None.

property n_circuits

The number of Circuits in this collection.

Type

int

property n_sys

The number of systems of all Circuits in this collection.

Type

int

property labels

Which systems are targeted by this Circuit.

Type

tuple

append(circuit)

Appends one or more Circuits to the collection.

Parameters

circuit (Circuit | Iterable) – An instance of Circuit, or any iterable of Circuit objects (including another CircuitCollection).

property n_results

The number of experimental Circuits that have been populated with results, an integer between $$0$$ and n_circuits.

Type

int

property has_no_results

Whether none of the experimental Circuit’s have been populated with data.

Type

bool

property has_some_results

Whether at least one of the experimental Circuits have been populated with data.

Type

bool

property has_all_results

Whether all of the experimental Circuits have been populated with data.

Type

bool

save(filename, overwrite=False, include_cycles=True)

Saves this collection to disk in a binary format, including all results. This collection can be reinstantiated at a later time using trueq.utils.load().

import trueq as tq
circuits = tq.make_srb([0], [4, 20])
# save without cycle/gate information for a smaller filesize
circuits.save("myfile1.bin", include_cycles=False)
# save with all cycle/gate information
circuits.save("myfile2.bin")

Parameters
• filename (str) – A filename to save the circuit collection as.

• overwrite (bool) – Any existing file will be overwritten if this is True, else saving will raise FileExistsError

• include_cycles (bool) – Whether the cycle information in each circuit should be retained. If false, then all circuits will have their cycles stripped in the saved version to save space. Results and other information will be saved so that analysis and plotting will work on a reinstantiated copy.

expectation_values(labels=None, **filter)

Finds the expectation values of all applicable Circuits, marginalized over specified labels.

The labels can be a list of labels, in which case each label is separately marginalized over. For example, labels = [0, 1, 2] shows the expectation value for qubits 0, 1, and 2 separately. The labels can also be a list of lists of labels; each list will be separately marginalized over. For example, labels = [[0], [1], [2]] is equivalent to labels = [0, 1, 2], but labels = [[0, 1], [2]] will report the expectation value of the subregister [0, 1] and the expectation value of the subregister 2.

If labels are not provided, they are taken from looking at all existing key.twirl values in the relevant Key of this CircuitCollection. If two different twirl values are found, constructing labels is ambiguous and this functions raises.

Parameters
• labels (list) – A list of labels (or list of lists of labels) specifying which subset of systems (or list of subsets) to marginalize over when computing expectaion values.

• filter – A filter to apply to the datastructure, for example, circuits.fit(protocol="SRB").

Returns

A KeyMap whose keys specify grouped collections of circuits, and whose values are lists of expectation values for circuits in those collections.

Return type

KeyMap

fit(labels=None, **filter)

Fits all applicable data to exponential curves and returns a ParameterCollection detailing summary statistics.

The labels can be a list of labels, in which case each label is separately marginalized over. For example, labels = [0, 1, 2] shows the expectation value for qubits 0, 1, and 2 separately. The labels can also be a list of lists of labels; each list will be separately marginalized over. For example, labels = [[0], [1], [2]] is equivalent to labels = [0, 1, 2], but labels = [[0, 1], [2]] will report the expectation value of the subregister [0, 1] and the expectation value of the subregister 2.

If labels are not provided, they are taken from looking at all existing ‘twirl’ values in the relevant Key of this CircuitCollection. If two different twirl values are found, constructing labels is ambiguous and this functions raises.

Parameters
• labels (list) – A list of labels (or list of lists of labels) specifying which qubit subset (or list of qubit subsets) to marginalize over when producing fits.

• return_expectations (bool) – Whether to return the expectation values as well as the ParameterCollection; the return is (fits, decay_data) in this case.

• filter – A filter to apply to the datastructure, for example, circuits.fit(protocol="SRB").

Return type

ParameterCollection

plot = None

An object that stores all plotting functions deemed relevant to this CircuitCollection. If one of these functions is called, the data from this circuit collection is analyzed and used.

Note

If there is a plotting function that you expected to be present but is not, double check the circuit’s Keys to see which types of circuits are present, and also verify that circuits relevant to the plot you want have results entered.

Type

PlottingSuite

batch(max_size, extra_circuits=None, sequencer=None)

Divides the circuits in this collection into a series of batches that are limited in size. This is useful if, for example, your hardware has a finite amount of memory to store circuits with.

import trueq as tq
import trueq.assessments as tqa
# make a bunch of circuits
circuits = tqa.make_crosstalk_diagnostics([0, 1, 2], [4, 70])

# split collection into batches such that there are no more than 80
# circuits in each batch
# assume we have a hardware device called my_device with a method run()
# which returns the results for each member of the batch
for batch in circuits.batch(80):
batch.results = my_device.run(batch)

# we can also set batch size by total number of cycles or gates
import trueq.sequencer as tqs
circuits.batch(tqs.NCycles(1000))
circuits.batch(tqs.NGates(1e6))

# we can riffle the circuits by sequence length
for batch in circuits.batch(80, sequencer=tqs.RIFFLER):
batch.results = my_device.run(batch)


The batcher also supports automatically adding a fixed set of circuits to each batch. For example, we can add readout calibration circuits to each batch:

circuits = tqa.make_crosstalk_diagnostics([0, 1, 2], [4, 70])

for batch in circuits.batch(80, extra_circuits=ro_circuits):
batch.results = my_device.run(batch)

Parameters
• max_size (int | list | CircuitRuler) – The maximum number of circuits per batch, or any CircuitRuler such as :NCycles, py:class:~trueq.sequencer.Gates, :or py:class:~trueq.sequencer.TotalTime. You can also specify a list of CircuitRulers; every batch will not surpass any of the rulers’ limits.

• extra_circuits (CircuitCollection) – A list of circuits to be placed at the start of every batch. Copies are made of these circuits in every batch.

• sequencer (CircuitSequencer) – Specifies how the circuits should be ordered when batching. This is useful, for example, if you want to riffle long circuits with short sequences within a batch, so that all of your long circuits don’t end up in the same batch, see trueq.sequencer.RIFFLER. If no sequencer is given, the existing circuit collection order is used.

keys(**filter)

Returns a KeySet of unique keys in this CircuitCollection that match the given name/values present in the filter.

Parameters

filter – Key/value pairs to be used as a filter.

Return type

set

similar_keys(*names, invert=False, **filter)

Returns a generator over disjoint KeySets, where all of the keys in each set have equal values for all names appearing in the given names, and have any specific values specified in filter.

circuits = tq.make_srb([0], [4, 10, 50], 30)
for keys in circuits.similar_keys("protocol"):
print(keys)
KeySet(
Key(n_random_cycles=4, protocol='SRB'),
Key(n_random_cycles=10, protocol='SRB'),
Key('n_random_cycles=50, protocol='SRB')
)
for keys in circuits.similar_keys("protocol", "n_random_cycles"):
print(keys)
KeySet(Key(n_random_cycles=10, protocol='SRB'))
KeySet(Key(n_random_cycles=4, protocol='SRB'))
KeySet(Key(n_random_cycles=50, protocol='SRB'))

Parameters
• names (list) – An iterable of key names.

• invert (bool) – Whether the list of names to use should be those presented, or all names execpt those presented.

• filter – Key/value pairs to be used as a filter.

subset(has_results=None, new_collection=True, **filter)

Selects a subset of this collection’s Circuits by matching against a filter. This returns a new CircuitCollection, with references to the original circuits, i.e. no circuit copies are made. Optionally, by using the new_collection flag, the output type can be a generator over circuits that match the filter rather than a new collection object.

# make a new CircuitCollection with only SRB circuits
srb_circuits = circuits.subset(protocol="SRB")
assert srb_circuits.keys().protocol == {"SRB"}

# for efficiency, use new_collection=False to avoid new instantiation
for circuit in circuits.subset(has_results=False, new_collection=False):
circuit.results = {"0": 1}

Parameters
• has_results (None | bool) – Whether to filter on circuits which have or do not have results entered. If True, only circuits with results are included, if False, only circuits without results are included, and if None (default) all circuits are included.

• new_collection (bool) – Whether to create a new CircuitCollection and return it. Otherwise, a generator over circuits will be returned, which saves memory.

• filter – Key/value pairs to be used as a filter.

Return type

generator | CircuitCollection

Parameters

ruler (CircuitRuler) – A callable that returns the size of a given circuit.

property results

A list of the Results for every circuit in this collection, where the order of this list matches the order of this collection. This property is also settable, see Circuit.results for allowed formats for setting.

import trueq as tq
circuits = tq.make_srb([0], [4, 100])
circuits.results
# [Results(), Results(), ....]

# set all results to the same value
circuits.results = [{"0": 10, "1": 100}] * len(circuits)

Type

list
