Abstract

We introduce QuESTlink, pronounced "quest link", an open-source Mathematica package which efficiently emulates quantum computers. By integrating with the Quantum Exact Simulation Toolkit (QuEST), QuESTlink offers a high-level, expressive and usable interface to a high-performance, hardware-accelerated emulator. Requiring no installation, QuESTlink streamlines the powerful analysis capabilities of Mathematica into the study of quantum systems, even utilising remote multicore and GPU hardware. We demonstrate the use of QuESTlink to concisely and efficiently simulate several quantum algorithms, and present some comparative benchmarking against core QuEST.
