A dynamic programming approach for distributing quantum circuits by bipartite graphs

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Near-term large quantum computers are not able to operate as a single processing unit. It is therefore required to partition a quantum circuit into smaller parts, and then each part is executed on a small unit. This approach is known as distributed quantum computation. In this study, a dynamic programming algorithm is proposed to minimize the number of communications in a distributed quantum circuit (DQC). This algorithm consists of two steps: first, the quantum circuit is converted into a bipartite graph model, and then a dynamic programming approach (DP) is proposed to partition the model into low-capacity quantum circuits. The proposed approach is evaluated on some benchmark quantum circuits with remarkable reduction in the number of required teleportations.
