Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Typed Lisp, a primer (2019)
Yes, they use it for their quantum compiler, at RHL Laboratories (it was maybe initiated even at Rigetti). https://github.com/quil-lang/quilc

I am planning my master's thesis to be about quantum computing and Lisp. Which books do you recommand on the subject ?
QUILC is probably the most interesting project. It is an open-source automatic, retargetable, optimizing compiler for Quil. It can take nearly any quantum computer architecture description and compile+optimize a Quil program for that architecture.

Lisp For Quantum Simulation?
The QVM does all manner of quantum computer simulations. It specifically simulates a Quil program, with both classical and quantum operators. The QVM has lots of different modes of operation:
-
Controlled S gate
You can do this with a compiler like quilc. A program like
-
IonQ Develop New Quantum Computing Gate, Only Possible on IonQ and Duke Systems
This is a new physical implementation of a particular mathematical operation, on a specific modality of qubit. The same mathematical operation can be computed on any other quantum computer in production today; very easily so if you use a compiler like QUILC [0].

Internships at HRL Labs writing Common Lisp for quantum computers (US only)
For people who maybe already have a job, just want to dip their toes in, or some other life thing that prohibits them from being employed, I’ve done pro bono mentorship sessions to interested individuals, helping them contribute to open source software around this stack, like the quantum compiler. Always happy to discuss that for serious applicants.

Yes, simulator, compiler, paper is some of it.

Compiler in Lisp
Speaking about Common Lisp, the only commercial-level compiler implementation that I know of is https://github.com/rigetti/quilc by /u/stylewarning et al.

I am planning my master's thesis to be about quantum computing and Lisp. Which books do you recommand on the subject ?
Quil's semantics are based off of an idea called the "quantum abstract machine". A piece of software which emulates the quantum abstract machine is called the Quantum Virtual Machine or QVM. It's open source and available here.
-
Lisp For Quantum Simulation?
More interestingly, the QVM repository includes a program called the dqvm which is the QVM but able to be run on an MPI cluster. This doesn't use any advanced state representation (such as matrix product states) and instead just very cleverly arranges for huge wavefunctions to be distributed across a cluster of arbitrary size and worked on in parallel.

The one-more-re-nightmare compiler – A fast regex compiler in Common Lisp
and/or in-line assembly code, and still can't optimize specific matrix shapes and structures, or do algebraic simplifications to eliminate work altogether.
The regex library FTA is a great, and clean, example of a long standing practice of compiling regexen, except it doesn't use any fancy VMs or any fancy JITs, just "when you see this regex, automatically turn it into this Common Lisp code, and let the Lisp compiler handle the rest."
