Compilation Tools

True-Q™ has a powerful built-in Compiler that allows users to re-express a quantum circuit in True-Q™ through a different gateset such as the set of gates native to a particular physical device. Additionally, the Compiler can transform a True-Q™ circuit to be compatible with the circuit representations of other leading software frameworks such as Qiskit, Cirq and PyQuil.

1. Example: Configuring Native Gates

   The Compiler can be used to construct circuits containing only gates that a native to a particular physical device by defining a configuration consisting of GateFactory objects.

2. Compiler

   The Compiler translates quantum circuits into new quantum circuits that contain only gates that can be executed on a specific hardware platform. This includes arbitrary SU(4) decomposition for converting arbitrary unitary matrices into gates that are compatible with the hardware, in addition to circuit compression, simplification, and handling hardware restrictions.

   • Example: Compilation Basics

     Provides hands-on examples for how to get started with the True-Q™ Compiler.

   • Example: Defining Custom Compilers

     Demonstrates how the Compiler can be customized by specifying compilation Pass options.

   • Example: Advanced Custom Compilers

     Walks through an example of a highly customized Compiler with 15 Passes.

   • Example: Gate synthesis

     Shows how arbitrary unitary gates can be synthesized using the True-Q™ Compiler.

   • Example: Phase Tracking with the Compiler

     The ability of the Compiler to incorporate parameterized gates allows for flexible gate synthesis through specification of parameterized gate phases. This example demonstrates the so-called Phase Tracking technique using both the cross-resonance and the Mølmer-Sørensen gate.

3. Example: Interfacing with Other Software

   Demonstrates how to easily convert between the circuit representations of leading software packages to run jobs on different platforms, including re-compiling into the gateset supported by the hardware backend. Currently, True-Q™ supports conversion between Qiskit, Cirq, pyQuil, and QASM.
