Project Overview
Despite the growing research interest in qudits as an alternative way to scale certain quantum architectures, no publicly available stabilizer circuit simulators for qudits (multi-level quantum systems) are available. The two most prominent ones are Cirq which is a statevector simulation and True-Q™ which is a licensed program.
The following are relevant details for the project:
- Supports only Clifford operations.
- Prime dimensions are strongly tested while the "fast" solver for composite dimensions is known to have possible errors
- The issue lies in math implementation details that can be found inside the markdown located in sdim/tableau
- Does not currently .stim circuit notation, only a variant based on Scott Aaronson's original .chp
Project Installation
You can install the sdim Python module directly from PyPI using pip install sdim
How to use sdim?
Take a look at the Python notebooks for an in-depth examples. ```python from sdim import Circuit, Program
Create a new quantum circuit
circuit = Circuit(4, 2) # Create a circuit with 4 qubits and dimension 2
Add gates to the circuit
circuit.addgate('H', 0) # Hadamard gate on qubit 0 circuit.addgate('CNOT', 0, 1) # CNOT gate with control on qubit 0 and target on qubit 1 circuit.addgate('CNOT', 0, [2, 3]) # Short-hand for multiple target qubits, applies CNOT between 0 -> 2 and 0 -> 3 circuit.addgate('MEASURE', [0, 1, 2, 3]) # Short-hand for multiple single-qubit gates
Create a program and add the circuit
program = Program(circuit) # Must be given an initial circuit as a constructor argument
Execute the program
result = program.simulate(show_measurement=True) # Runs the program and prints the measurement results. Also returns the results as a list of MeasurementResult objects. ```
