This release adds capabilities for hybrid Schrödinger-Feynman simulation using decision diagrams based on the ideas outlined in:

[1] L. Burgholzer, H. Bauer, and R. Wille. "Hybrid Schrödinger-Feynman Simulation of Quantum Circuits With Decision Diagrams". arXiv:2105.07045, 2021

In order to use the new simulator, call the ddsim_simple executable as follows

ddsim_simple --simulate_file_hybrid <FILE> --hybrid_mode amplitude --nthreads 4 --ps

where

  • <FILE> specifies the circuit file to be simulated (the format is derived from the extension)
  • --hybrid_mode specifies the mode to use, either amplitude (default) or dd
  • --nthreads specifies the number of threads to use for the parallel simulation
