Gate based computing

Gate-based quantum emulators can be split in several categories:

QPU Emulators

Ideal Computation

Noisy Computation

Exact Representation

PyLinalg, CLinalg, DLinAlg

N.A. 1

Approximate Representation

N.A. 1

N.A. 1

A complete list of these QPUs can be found qat.qpus.

1(1,2,3)

The full Qaptiva appliance contains a variety of QPUs, comprising all of those categories, as for instance QPUs capable of simulating physical noise.

DLinAlg: Distributed Linear-algebra-based simulator
CLinalg: C++ Linear-algebra-based simulator
PyLinalg: Python Linear-algebra-based simulator
