tqsim 0.0.1

TQSim is a Topological Quantum Computing simulator based on Anyon models

TQSim

TQSim stands for Topological Quantum Simulator. It is an open-source library for simulating topological quantum computer based on anyons.

Installation

You can install TQSim from pip using

pip install --upgrade tqsim

Usage

1. Basic Example

In this example, we create a circuit with 2 qudits, made of 3 anyons each. We then braid the anyons manually.

from tqsim import AnyonicCircuit

circuit = AnyonicCircuit(2, 3) # Create a circuit having 2 qudits and 3 anyons per qudits
circuit.braid(1, 2) # Braids the first with the second anyon
circuit.braid(3, 4) # Braids the first with the second anyon
circuit.braid(2, 1)
circuit.measure() # Measure the system by fusing the anyons
circuit.draw() # Draw the circuit

Here is the output of the draw() method:

Simulating the circuit:

circuit.run(shots = 50)

Output:

{'counts': {'0': 16, '2': 20, '4': 14}, 'memory': array([4, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 4, 2, 4, 2, 0, 0, 0, 4, 0, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4,
       2, 4, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2, 4, 2, 2, 0, 0, 2, 4, 2, 2,
       4, 2, 4, 4, 0, 2])}

2. Simulating a Hadamard gate

Here we simulate the application of a Hadamard gate on a single qudit with 3 anyons. Unlike the previous example, we will use a braiding sequence of braiding operators and their corresponding powers.

from tqsim import AnyonicCircuit

circuit = AnyonicCircuit(nb_qudits=1, nb_anyons_per_qudit=3)  # Create a circuit with 1 qudit composed of 3 anyons
circuit.initialize([0,0,1])  # We initialize the circuit in the last state (state 2).
                            # For this circuit, we have 3 basis states: [0, 1, 2].

# The Hadamard gate braiding sequence in terms of braiding operators
had_sequence = [[1, 2], [2, 2], [1, -2], [2, -2], [1, 2], [2, 4], [1, -2], [2, 2],
                [1, 2], [2, -2], [1, 2], [2, -2], [1, 4]]

circuit.braid_sequence(had_sequence)  # We apply the braiding sequence.
                                      # This should put our qudit in a superposition of the states 2 and 1.
circuit.measure()  # Measure the system by fusing the anyons
circuit.draw()  # Draw the circuit

The Hadamard braid looks like this

Simulating the circuit:

result = circuit.run(shots = 1000)  # Run the circuit 1000 times.
print(result['counts'])  # Show the counts only.

Output:

{'1': 493, '2': 507}
