Improving Qubit Routing by Using Entanglement Mediated Remote Gates
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Near-term quantum computers often have connectivity constraints, i.e. restrictions, on which pairs of qubits in the device can interact. Optimally mapping a quantum circuit to a hardware topology under these constraints is a difficult task. While numerous approaches have been proposed to optimize qubit routing, the resulting gate count and depth overheads of the compiled circuits remain high due to the short-range coupling of qubits in many near-term devices. Resource states, such as Bell or Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pairs, can be used to mediate operations that facilitate long-range interactions between qubits. In this work, we studied some of the practical trade-offs involved in using resource states for qubit routing. We developed a method that leverages an existing state-of-the-art compiler to optimize the routing of circuits with both standard gates and EPR mediated remote controlled-NOT gates. This was then used to compile different benchmark circuits for a square grid topology, where a fraction of the qubits are used to store EPR pairs. We demonstrate that EPR-mediated operations can substantially reduce the total number of gates and depths of compiled circuits when used with an appropriate optimizing compiler that accounts for practical overheads. Our results highlight the relevance of developing efficient compilation tools that can integrate EPR-mediated operations.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
