QuantumSuperposition and PositronicVariables

Hutchinson, Paul

This paper presents QuantumSuperposition and PositronicVariables, two interlinked .NET libraries for modelling uncertainty, quantum-style superposition, and time-looped convergence in ordinary C# code. QuantumSuperposition provides (1) a generic superposition engine in the form of QuBit<T> and Eigenstates<T> with complex amplitudes, arithmetic, LINQ integration and non-destructive sampling, and (2) a physicsflavoured quantum layer with multi-qubit QuantumSystem, entanglement management, gate catalogues, canonical states, and bundled implementations of the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT) and Grover’s search algorithm. PositronicVariables builds on the same superposition semantics to model reversible temporal logic: variables that can participate in feedback loops, roll their state backwards and forwards through hypothetical timelines, and converge to a consistent fixed point (or, in pathological cases, a politely documented paradox). The resulting ecosystem lets .NET developers treat "maybe" and "many possible futures" as first-class values while still enjoying static typing, IDE autocompletion and the reassuring hum of the garbage collector. We describe the design and semantics of both layers, motivate their use as teaching and experimentation tools, and compare them to existing quantum SDKs and probabilistic programming languages. Our guiding design principle is simple: make the multiverse feel like idiomatic C#, with just enough weirdness to be fun but not enough to summon an actual physicist.

qSOA®: Dynamic integration for hybrid quantum/Classical software systems

José Luis Hevia, Guido Peterssen, Mario G. Piattini

This is the “quantum decade” when quantum computers are proving to be more useful for some types of processing than their classical counterparts. The solutions of the future will combine classical IT with quantum algorithms and applications. However, there is very little work that addresses this issue. Each manufacturer provides specific tools for their products, which makes integration between quantum and classical systems a costly and time-consuming process. We believe that we should follow good software engineering principles and best practices to build platforms and tools that insulate software and systems engineers from implementation details and provide them with adequate support. In this paper we propose qSOA® as a mechanism for the dynamic integration of hybrid (quantum/classical) software systems and present in detail an SDK for Python. qSOA® provides a set of well-defined functions with which a classical system can access quantum products as if they were a piece of classical software, accessing the use case and not its complexities. In addition to some examples that illustrates its operation in real cases, we present the evaluation of qSOA® by 200 quantum software developers in a workshop in collaboration with AWS Braket.

Provably secure key exchange: an engineering approach

Yiu Shing Terry Tin, Colin Boyd, Juanma González Nieto

We promote an engineering approach to design of provably secure key exchange protocols. Using the model of Canetti and Krawczyk we present a systematic method to arrive at e#cient and practical protocols with proven security and illustrate its use with existing building blocks. We further show a dual approach which allows protocols with known features to be `reverse engineered', thereby allowing easier security proofs and providing new building blocks for future designs.
