We describe portable software to simulate universal quantum computers on massive parallel computers. We illustrate the use of the simulation software by running various quantum algorithms on different computer architectures, such as a IBM BlueGene/L, a IBM Regatta p690+, a Hitachi SR11000/J1, a Cray X1E, a SGI Altix 3700 and clusters of PCs running Windows XP. We study the performance of the software by simulating quantum computers containing up to 36 qubits, using up to 4096 processors and up to 1 TB of memory. Our results demonstrate that the simulator exhibits nearly ideal scaling as a function of the number of processors and suggest that the simulation software described in this paper may also serve as benchmark for testing high-end parallel computers.

A revised version of the massively parallel simulator of a universal quantum computer, described in this journal eleven years ago, is used to benchmark various gate-based quantum algorithms on some of the most powerful supercomputers that exist today
. Adaptive encoding of the wave function reduces the memory requirement by a factor of eight, making it possible to simulate universal quantum computers with up to 48 qubits on the Sunway TaihuLight and on the K computer. The simulator exhibits close-to-ideal weak-scaling behavior on the Sunway TaihuLight,on the K computer, on an IBM Blue Gene/Q, and on Intel Xeon based clusters, implying that the combination of parallelization and hardware can track the exponential scaling due to the increasing number of qubits. Results of executing simple quantum circuits and Shors factorization algorithm on quantum computers containing up to 48 qubits are presented.
Quantum computing, an innovative computing system carrying prominent processing rate, is meant to be the solutions to problems in many fields. Among these realms, the most intuitive application is to help chemical researchers correctly de-scribe stro
ng correlation and complex systems, which are the great challenge in current chemistry simulation. In this paper, we will present a standalone quantum simulation tool for chemistry, ChemiQ, which is designed to assist people carry out chemical research or molecular calculation on real or virtual quantum computers. Under the idea of modular programming in C++ language, the software is designed as a full-stack tool without third-party physics or chemistry application packages. It provides services as follow: visually construct molecular structure, quickly simulate ground-state energy, scan molecular potential energy curve by distance or angle, study chemical reaction, and return calculation results graphically after analysis.
The optimal design of a fault-tolerant quantum computer involves finding an appropriate balance between the burden of large-scale integration of noisy components and the load of improving the reliability of hardware technology. This balance can be ev
aluated by quantitatively modeling the execution of quantum logic operations on a realistic quantum hardware containing limited computational resources. In this work, we report a complete performance simulation software tool capable of (1) searching the hardware design space by varying resource architecture and technology parameters, (2) synthesizing and scheduling fault-tolerant quantum algorithm within the hardware constraints, (3) quantifying the performance metrics such as the execution time and the failure probability of the algorithm, and (4) analyzing the breakdown of these metrics to highlight the performance bottlenecks and visualizing resource utilization to evaluate the adequacy of the chosen design. Using this tool we investigate a vast design space for implementing key building blocks of Shors algorithm to factor a 1,024-bit number with a baseline budget of 1.5 million qubits. We show that a trapped-ion quantum computer designed with twice as many qubits and one-tenth of the baseline infidelity of the communication channel can factor a 2,048-bit integer in less than five months.
Finding the global minimum in a rugged potential landscape is a computationally hard task, often equivalent to relevant optimization problems. Simulated annealing is a computational technique which explores the configuration space by mimicking therma
l noise. By slow cooling, it freezes the system in a low-energy configuration, but the algorithm often gets stuck in local minima. In quantum annealing, the thermal noise is replaced by controllable quantum fluctuations, and the technique can be implemented in modern quantum simulators. However, quantum-adiabatic schemes become prohibitively slow in the presence of quasidegeneracies. Here we propose a strategy which combines ideas from simulated annealing and quantum annealing. In such hybrid algorithm, the outcome of a quantum simulator is processed on a classical device. While the quantum simulator explores the configuration space by repeatedly applying quantum fluctuations and performing projective measurements, the classical computer evaluates each configuration and enforces a lowering of the energy. We have simulated this algorithm for small instances of the random energy model, showing that it potentially outperforms both simulated thermal annealing and adiabatic quantum annealing. It becomes most efficient for problems involving many quasi-degenerate ground states.
Quantum simulation can help us study poorly understood topics such as high-temperature superconductivity and drug design. However, existing quantum simulation algorithms for current quantum computers often have drawbacks that impede their application
. Here, we provide a novel hybrid quantum-classical algorithm for simulating the dynamics of quantum systems. Our approach takes the Ansatz wavefunction as a linear combination of quantum states. The quantum states are fixed, and the combination parameters are variationally adjusted. Unlike existing variational quantum simulation algorithms, our algorithm does not require any classical-quantum feedback loop and by construction bypasses the barren plateau problem. Moreover, our algorithm does not require any complicated measurements such as the Hadamard test. The entire framework is compatible with existing experimental capabilities and thus can be implemented immediately.
