I was planning to jump into the Sympy quantum stuff a bit more, and wanted to make sure I wouldn’t be stepping on anyone’s toes.
Here’s what I have in mind: 1. Expand sympy/physics/quantum documentation for qubit circuits and simulations. At one point a while back I wrote a ipython notebook on using sympy circuit diagrams <http://nbviewer.jupyter.org/gist/rpmuller/5843312>, but this mostly amounts to my test cases. I’d like to write a guide along the lines of the Quipper programming guide (arXiv:1304.5485), but using Sympy tools. A lot of this is already in Sympy, and my writing more in-depth documentation will be a good way to remind myself what works and what still needs to be added. 2. When I worked on this a long time ago, the circuit simulators were very inefficient – they essentially created full matrices for every operation, if I remember correctly. I have a working vector state simulator for arbitrary quantum states that I could reimplement in Sympy pretty easily. This would give Sympy functionality that would be pretty close to what’s in Quipper. 3. Time permitting, it would be nice to do a stabilizer solver <http://www.scottaaronson.com/chp/>. Aaronson’s site already has the code. Anyone have any objections, or alternate suggestions? Rick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
