Quantum Optimization Toolkit

Quantum Optimization Toolkit

This repository contains fast CPU and GPU simulators for benchmarking the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm, as well as scripts for generating matching quantum circuits for execution on hardware. See the examples folder for a demo of this package and check out the blog post describing the simulators.

Install

Creating a virtual environment is recommended before installing.

python -m venv qokit
source qokit/bin/activate
pip install -U pip

Install requires python>=3.10 and pip >= 23. It is recommended to update your pip using pip install --upgrade pip before install.

git clone https://github.com/jpmorganchase/QOKit.git
cd QOKit/
pip install -e .

Some optional parts of the package require additional dependencies.

• GPU simulation: pip install -e .[GPU-CUDA12]
• Generating LP files to solve LABS using commercial IP solvers (qokit/classical_methods and examples/advanced/classical_solvers_for_LABS/): pip install -e .[solvers]

Please note that the GPU dependency is specified for CUDA 12x. For other versions of CUDA, please follow cupy installation instructions.

If compilation fails, try installing just the Python version using QOKIT_PYTHON_ONLY=1 pip install -e ..

Installation can be verified by running tests using pytest.

MaxCut

For MaxCut, the datasets in qokit/assets/maxcut_datasets must be inflated
