Quantum Circuit Compilation to NISQ processors

ORAL

Abstract

We describe automated reasoning approaches for QCC-NISQ, quantum circuit compilation to NISQ (noisy intermediate-scale quantum) processor architectures. We tested the approaches for different NISQ processor architectures and QAOA (quantum alternating operator ansatz) circuits. This approach is integrated into our software suite for automated, architecture aware, compilation for emerging gate-model quantum computers. We give an overview of the key components of this suite: a circuit synthesizer, a QCC-NISQ solver, and a visualizer.
