MPS to circuit

Toolbox for converting matrix product states to Qiskit quantum circuits.

Usage with Quimb

Assuming you have a Quimb MatrixProductState object, you can extract the individual tensors as three-dimensional NumPy arrays using the snippet below.

mps_arrays = mps.arrays

You can now convert the list of tensors to a Qiskit QuantumCircuit using the mps_to_circuit interface function, specifying the shape as $(v_L, v_R, p)$ (this is also the default argument for shape).

For example, using the "exact" method [Shoen2006]:

qc = mps_to_circuit(mps_arrays, method="exact", shape="lrp")

Or using the "approximate" method [Ran2019]:

qc = mps_to_circuit(mps_arrays, method="approximate", shape="lrp", num_layers=3)

Usage with TenPy

Assuming you have a TenPy MPS object, you can extract the individual tensors as three-dimensional NumPy arrays using the snippet below.

mps_arrays = [mps.get_B(i).to_ndarray() for i in range(L)]

You can now convert the list of tensors to a Qiskit QuantumCircuit using the mps_to_circuit interface function, specifying the shape as $(v_L, p, v_R)$.

For example, using the "exact" method [Shoen2006]:

qc = mps_to_circuit(mps_arrays, method="exact", shape="lpr")

Or using the "approximate" method [Ran2019]:

qc = mps_to_circuit(mps_arrays, method="approximate", shape="lpr", num_layers=3)

Development

Installation

This package and all dependencies can be installed using uv.

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
uv python install 3.12
uv venv --python 3.12
uv python pin 3.12
uv pip install -e .

Testing

One can test the code using pytest .

uv run pytest

Linting

One can lint the code using the Ruff Linter.

uv run ruff check

Formatting

One can format the code using the Ruff Formatter.

uv run ruff format

Sorting imports

In order to both sort imports and format, call the Ruff linter and then the formatter:

uv run ruff check --select I --fix
uv run ruff format
