Abstract
Mapping of logical qubits to physical qubits is provided. In various embodiments, a first candidate subgraph is selected from a hardware graph. The hardware graph represents a physical quantum circuit. The hardware graph comprises a plurality of nodes corresponding to physical qubits and a plurality of edges corresponding to coupling among the plurality of qubits. An accepted subgraph is determined by: setting the accepted subgraph to be the first candidate subgraph; mapping a quantum circuit comprising a plurality of logical qubits to the accepted subgraph; generating a second candidate subgraph of the hardware graph based on the accepted subgraph; mapping the quantum circuit to the second candidate subgraph; comparing fidelities of the accepted subgraph and the second candidate subgraph for the quantum circuit; if the fidelity of the second candidate subgraph is greater than the fidelity of the accepted subgraph, setting the accepted subgraph to be the second candidate subgraph; if the fidelity of the second candidate subgraph is less than or equal to the fidelity of the accepted subgraph, setting the accepted subgraph to be the second candidate subgraph with a time-dependent probability.
