SUMMARY:Exploring Affine Abstractions for Qubit Mapping
DESCRIPTION:Workshop\n\nExploring Affine Abstractions for Qubit Mapping\n\
 nGerard, Kong\n\nOne of the key compilation steps in Quantum Computing (QC
 ) is to determine an initial logical to physical mapping of the qubits use
 d in a quantum circuit.  The impact of the starting qubit layout can vastl
 y affect later scheduling and placement decisions of QASM operations, yiel
 ding higher values on critical performance metrics (gate count and circuit
  depth) as a result of a quantum compilers introducing communication opera
 tions to meet the underlying physical neighboring and connectivity constra
 ints of the quantum device. \n\nWe present our ongoing work on qubit mapp
 ing with affine abstractions, which aims to compute effective initial qubi
 t layouts. The key assumption is that the quantum program is represented i
 n an affine representation, a property which permits us to apply aggressiv
 e program analyses to determine the potential of sharing qubit accesses am
 ong groups of quantum operations prescribed by linear and affine relations
 .  We present preliminary results demonstrating the effectiveness of our n
 ovel approach on 69 quantum circuits, while using the QISKIT compiler on I
 BM Tokyo and Google Sycamore, obtaining between 16% and 21% average improv
 ement on circuit depth and 24\%--47\% improvement on the number of added g
 ates.\n\nTag: Online Only, Algorithms, Quantum Computing, Software Enginee
