Content

We listed 4 applications which using quantum Wasserstein GAN framework as follows

Learning pure state Learn the pure state generated by applying parameterized Pauli gates on each qubit.
Learning mixed state Learn the mixed state , in which each pure state is generated by the same method mentioned in 1. is a random number between 0 and 1, and .
Learning pure state with noise Add gaussian noise to the gradient of each parameters. and the generator circuit is constructed by the same ansatz used in training hybrid algorithm on iron-trap quantum computer('Training of Quantum Circuits on a Hybrid Quantum Computer').
Hamiltonian Simulation Learn the pure state generated by applying the unitary operations which restricted by the Hamiltonian dynamics on maximually entangled state. Here we focus on the Hamiltonian of one-dimensional nearest-neighbor Heisenberg model with a random magnetic field in the z direction.

Getting Started

Constructing quantum circuit

Create an instance of Quantum Circuit Such as we construct a quantum circuit as the generator:

from qcircuit import *
qc = Quantum_Circuit(system_size, "generator") # create an instance of Quantum Circuit

Adding quantum gates to quantum circuit, such as:

qc.add(Quantum_Gate("X", i, angle=0.5000 * np.pi)) # add parameterized X Rotation gate with 0.5*pi on ith wire

Create an instance of Generator

Create an instance of Generator Such as creating the Generator of 2 qubits system

system_size = 2
gen = Generator(system_size) # create an instance of generator of 2 qubits system

Create the quantum circuit and set it as the variational quantum circuit of the generator.

qc = construct_qcircuit(qc,size) # create an instance of system
gen.set_qcircuit(qc) # set qc as the circuit of generator

Create an instance of Discriminator

Define the Pauli matrices set. As the discriminator is represented as linear combination of tensor products of simple Pauli matrices, we first define the Pauli matrices set
```
herm = [I, X, Y, Z]
```
Create an instance of Discriminator
```
dis = Discriminator(herm, system size)
```

Update the parameters of generator and discriminator

Update the parameters of generator and discriminator alternativly until the fidelity between the generated states and target state approximate to 1.

dis.update_dis(gen,real_state) #update the parameters of the discriminator
gen.update_gen(dis,real_state) #update the parameters of the generator

Dependencies

All the codes have dependencies on following python library:

numpy 1.14.5
scipy 1.1.0
matplotlib 3.0.2
