  • Keep getting errors while trying to use Aer simulator

    strange. i never faced this error while using the Aer library. could u perhaps provide the complete error? is it something like the one mentioned here?
  • Measuring expectation value for an operator with noise
    1 project | /r/Qiskit | 18 Jun 2022
    Hello everyone, I am currently learning the work with Qiskit and I came across a curious problem. Although the documentation does not explicitly mention it, when .eval() method is applied on an operator (which was prepared using ExpectationFactory and CircuitSampler with simulator backend from a SumOp type Hamiltonian and a state Psi converted from a circuit), the expectation values is apparently evaluated by "algebraic" calculation rather than a circuit simulation, not to mention the absence of noise (the result is always the same). This fact seems to be mentioned in documentation https://qiskit.org/documentation/stubs/qiskit.opflow.expectations.ExpectationFactory.build.html . There also seems to a relevant be an issue on Qiskit Github https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-aer/issues/810 , but there have not been any updates from end of 2020.
  • Waiting for Quantum Computing? Try Probabilistic Computing
    1 project | /r/compsci | 7 Apr 2021
    is this a joke? prime/integer factorization is famously something that had a probabilistic algorithm for a long time and it was unknown whether there was a P algorithm and now there is based on AKS. and quantum systems are primarily simulated since almost no one has a functioning qpu.
  • Qiskit 0.25 released!
    1 project | /r/Qiskit | 2 Apr 2021
    Aer 0.8 with a unified AerSimulator backend for running circuit simulations using any of the supported simulation methods and a new simulator instruction library for saving various kinds of simulator data. Now is possible to run large simulations on a distributed computing environment (read more here).

  • I wrote an easy-to-use GPU accelerated QUBO solver
    2 projects | /r/QuantumComputing | 8 Mar 2022
    For debugging hamiltonians, it is really nice to have a fast, easy, and reliable way of solving quadratic binary optimization problems / ising problems. There are a bunch of solvers around, like SQAOD or Ising, but none of them is really convenient. That's why I wrote QUBOBrute.
