qWalkBuilder

qWalkBuilder is an open-source python library for building and executing well-defined discrete-time quantum walks in Qiskit

Installation

To install the qWalkBuilder library, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/sagnikpal2004/qWalkBuilder.git
   cd qWalkBuilder

2. Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python -m venv .venv
   source .venv/bin/activate

3. Install the qWalkBuilder library:

   pip install .

Example Usage

Build a quantum walk with a two-qubit Hadamard coin and a 4x4 node Torus shift operator, initializing from a single node state.
Measure at time 10 on the Z-basis and print the probabilities for each state

import qWalkBuilder as qWB

qw = qWB.QuantumWalk("H.2", "T.[4,4]", "singleNode")

result = qw.time(10).run("measure_z")
print(f"Probabilities: {result}")

Codes

Shift

• 16nT: 4x4 node Torus

Coin

• H: Hadamard

Init

• uniform: Uniform superpositon over all qubits
• single: No superposition
