Circuit knitting Based On Quasiprobability Simulation


New paper "Circuit knitting with classical communication, " from researchers at ETH Zurich and IBM Quantum. Abstract: "The scarcity of qubits is a major obstacle to the practical usage of quantum computers in the near future. To circumvent this problem, various circuit knitting techniques have been developed to partition large quantum circuits into subcircuits that fit on smaller devices,... » read more
