QiskitExtension 0.1.4

A Qiskit visualize extension

Qiskit StateVector extension

A simple Qiskit StateVector extension with more visualization function:

• Modifies the original StateVector visualization, adds line break and alignment.
• StateVector visualization with x, y, z basis.
• StateVector measurement with x, y, z basis, and visualizes all the possible measurement result.
• Visualizes the vector of a StateVector and the unitary matrix of a QuantumCircuit as a visually pleasing matrix in LaTeX format.
• Uses textbook qubit order. (for instance, if the first qubit is in state |0> and second is in state |1>, their joint state would be visualize as |01>)

Installation

Install from PyPI

pip install QiskitExtension

Install from source

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Slope86/QiskitExtension
cd QiskitExtension
pip install .

Configuration

The configuration file is located at ~/qiskit_extension/config/config.ini

; This section sets up the notation for the StateVector(affect the visualization result and the constructor funcition from_label() ).
; The default notation uses |j> to represent |-i>. 
; You can change the notation to other character if necessary. (only accept single character.)
[ket]
z0 = 0
z1 = 1
x0 = +
x1 = -
y0 = i
y1 = j

Examples

Creating an EPR pair with circuit:

from qiskit_extension.quantum_circuit2 import QuantumCircuit2 as qc2
from qiskit_extension.state_vector2 import StateVector2 as sv2

# the circuit for creating EPR pair
circuit_EPR = qc2(2)
circuit_EPR.h(0)
circuit_EPR.cx(0, 1)

# create a ground state
state00 = sv2.from_label('00')

# evolve the state with the circuit
state_EPR = state00.evolve(circuit_EPR)

# visualize the state
state_EPR.show_state() #|00> + |11>

Creating an EPR pair from label:

from qiskit_extension.state_vector2 import StateVector2 as sv2

# create an EPR pair from label
state_EPR = sv2.from_label("00","11")

# visualize the state
state_EPR.show_state() #1/√2(|00> + |11>)

Visualize the state with different basis:

from qiskit_extension.state_vector2 import StateVector2 as sv2

# create an EPR pair from label
state_EPR = sv2.from_label("00","11")

# visualize the state
state_EPR.show_state()           #1/√2(|00> + |11>)
state_EPR.show_state(basis='xx') #1/√2(|++> + |-->)
state_EPR.show_state(basis='yy') #1/√2(|ij> + |ji>)

More examples can be found in the examples folder.
