# MQT QMAP - A tool for Quantum Circuit Compilation

A tool for quantum circuit compilation developed as part of the [_Munich Quantum Toolkit (MQT)_](https://mqt.readthedocs.io) [^1].
It builds upon [MQT Core](https://github.com/munich-quantum-toolkit/core), which forms the backbone of the MQT.

## Getting Started

<p align="center">
  <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2301.11935">

</p>

QMAP is available via [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/mqt.qmap/) for Linux, macOS, and Windows and supports Python 3.9 to 3.13.

```console
(venv) $ pip install mqt.qmap
```

Compiling a given quantum circuit to a certain device is as easy as

```python3
from mqt.qmap.plugins.qiskit.sc import compile
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
from qiskit.providers.fake_provider import GenericBackendV2

circ = QuantumCircuit(3)
circ.h(0)
circ.cx(0, 1)
circ.cx(0, 2)

arch = GenericBackendV2(
    num_qubits=5,
    coupling_map=[[0, 1], [1, 0], [1, 2], [2, 1], [1, 3], [3, 1], [3, 4], [4, 3]],
)
circ_mapped, results = compile(circ, arch=arch)
```

Optimizing a Clifford circuit is as easy as

```python3
from mqt.qmap.plugins.qiskit.clifford_synthesis import optimize_clifford
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit

circ = QuantumCircuit(2)
circ.h(1)
circ.cx(0, 1)
circ.h(0)
circ.h(1)

circ_opt, results = optimize_clifford(circ)
```

**Detailed documentation on all available methods, options, and input formats is available at [ReadTheDocs](https://mqt.readthedocs.io/projects/qmap).**

## System Requirements and Building

The implementation is compatible with any C++17 compiler, a minimum CMake version of 3.24, and Python 3.9+.
Please refer to the [documentation](https://mqt.readthedocs.io/projects/qmap) on how to build the project.

Building (and running) is continuously tested under Linux, macOS, and Windows using the [latest available system versions for GitHub Actions](https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments).
