QuanSuite

What is QuanSuite?

QuanSuite is a suite of Java applications, available for free. (Source code included in distribution.) Each QuanSuite application compiles a different kind of input evolution operator U_in. The applications output a quantum circuit for U_in, where U_in is specified either directly, or by giving a Hamiltonian H such that U_in=exp(iH).

Some papers that will help you understand QuanSuite are:

• ``How to Compile Some NAND Formula Evaluators", by R.R. Tucci arXiv:0706.0479
• ``QuanTree and QuanLin, Two Special Purpose Quantum Compilers", by R.R. Tucci, arXiv:0712.3887
• ``QuanFou, QuanGlue, QuanOracle and QuanShi, Four Special Purpose Quantum Compilers", by by R.R. Tucci, arXiv:0802.2367
• ``Java Application that Outputs Quantum Circuit for Some NAND Formula Evaluators", by by R.R. Tucci, arXiv:0802.2370

List of Applications and Their Function

Application Logo	Application Name	What does it do?
	QuanFou	Outputs q-circuit for Discrete Fourier Transform
	QuanFruit	Outputs q-circuit for NAND formula evaluator proposed by Farhi-Goldstone-Gutmann in quant-ph/0702144. So far, this is the most complicated application of QuanSuite. It uses classes from QuanGlue, QuanLin, QuanOracle, QuanShi, and  QuanTree. These may be considered building blocks for QuanFruit.
	QuanGlue	Outputs q-circuit for exp(iH), where H = g(|j><k| + h.c.) (I call this H, "glue" of j and k states)
	QuanLin	Outputs q-circuit for exp(iH), where H is incidence matrix of line (finite open string) of states
	QuanOracle	Outputs q-circuit for exp(iH), where H is a "banded oracle", as described in arXiv:0706.0479
	QuanShi	Outputs q-circuit for unitary matrix that takes |j> to |(j+k)mod N> (I call this a "state-shift")
	QuanTree	Outputs q-circuit for exp(iH), where H is incidence matrix of balanced binary tree

Why are some applications platform dependent? Clapack is a C library of Linear Algebra subroutines available for free at www.netlib.org. Java is wonderful for all its canned libraries, but the language lacks certain basic constructs that make it inefficient for performing heavy duty Linear Algebra. Therefore, whenever a QuanSuite application needs to perform non-trivial Linear Algebra, it calls Clapack, through a Java mechanism called JNI (Java Native Interface). Those applications (.jar files) that call Clapack require that there be in the same folder a platform dependent file (JavaNativeLibrary) called libNativeLinAlg.jnilib.

QuanSuite 1.1 (7 applications)	here	Not Yet	Not Yet

Meaning of "Not Yet":  It's simple to compile QuanSuite for this platform, but I can't do it, due to lack of the necessary hardware. I'm hoping someone will volunteer to do this compilation.
