Lattice Surgery Quantum Error Correction Compiler

ORAL

Abstract

We developed a state of the art, high performance compiler for surface code quantum error correction. Our compiler translates any quantum circuit to a fault-tolerant one error corrected one that follows Lattice Surgery (LS) instructions. We offer our compiler publicly through a web interface, a web service, and as an open sourced Python package. In this talk, we will demonstrate the operation of our compiler and the web visualizer for the conversion of a sample quantum circuit. We will also discuss our results on compiling thousands of qubits, and on verifying the correctness of the compiler output. Generally, verifying the correctness is an intractable problem. An example of this will be showcased during our talk. With respect to future work, we will present our preliminary results on implementing massively parallel compilation of very large scale circuits.
