Title: Towards Exact Simulation and Verification of Quantum Circuits
Place : R36169, 1F, Dept. of Physics, Building of Science College, NCKU

Abstract:
Quantum circuit simulation and verification performed on classical computers play essential roles in quantum program compilation, which transforms a quantum algorithm into a quantum circuit executable on a quantum processor. In this talk, we will share our recent progress in achieving exact quantum circuit simulation and equivalence checking. Based on an algebraic method and a symbolic bit-slicing technique, the computation can be made exact and much more scalable compared to the prior state-of-the-art.
