FermionicToQubitConverter

class FermionicToQubitConverter

Bases: BasePassManager

A transpiler pass manager converting a FermionicCircuit to a QuantumCircuit.

Note

Qiskit is currently working on native support of transpiler pipelines involving more than a single intermediate representation. Once that gets more formalized, the implementation here will be aligned with the resulting interfaces. See also this tracking issue.

Inherited Methods

append(tasks)

Append tasks to the schedule of passes.

Parameters:

tasks (Task | list[Task]) – A set of pass manager tasks to be added to schedule.

Raises:

TypeError – When any element of tasks is not a subclass of passmanager Task.

Return type:

None

remove(index)

Removes a particular pass in the scheduler.

Parameters:

index (int) – Pass index to remove, based on the position in passes().

Raises:

PassManagerError – If the index is not found.

Return type:

None

replace(index, tasks)

Replace a particular pass in the scheduler.

Parameters:

• index (int) – Task index to replace, based on the position in tasks()

• tasks (Task | list[Task]) – A set of pass manager tasks to be added to schedule.

Raises:

• TypeError – When any element of tasks is not a subclass of passmanager Task.

• PassManagerError – If the index is not found.

Return type:

None

run(in_programs, callback=None, num_processes=None, *, property_set=None, **kwargs)

Run all the passes on the specified in_programs.

Parameters:

• in_programs (Any | list[Any]) – Input programs to transform via all the registered passes. A single input object cannot be a Python builtin list object. A list object is considered as multiple input objects to optimize.

• callback (Callable | None) –

  A callback function that will be called after each pass execution. The function will be called with 5 keyword arguments:

  task (GenericPass): the pass being run
  passmanager_ir (Any): depending on pass manager subclass
  property_set (PropertySet): the property set
  running_time (float): the time to execute the pass
  count (int): the index for the pass execution
  

  The exact arguments passed expose the internals of the pass manager and are subject to change as the pass manager internals change. If you intend to reuse a callback function over multiple releases be sure to check that the arguments being passed are the same.

  To use the callback feature you define a function that will take in kwargs dict and access the variables. For example:

  def callback_func(**kwargs):
      task = kwargs['task']
      passmanager_ir = kwargs['passmanager_ir']
      property_set = kwargs['property_set']
      running_time = kwargs['running_time']
      count = kwargs['count']
      ...
  

• num_processes (int | None) – The maximum number of parallel processes to launch if parallel execution is enabled. This argument overrides num_processes in the user configuration file, and the QISKIT_NUM_PROCS environment variable. If set to None the system default or local user configuration will be used.

• property_set (dict[str, object] | None) – If given, the initial value to use as the PropertySet for the pass manager pipeline. This can be used to persist analysis from one run to another, in cases where you know the analysis is safe to share. Beware that some analysis will be specific to the input circuit and the particular Target, so you should take a lot of care when using this argument.

• kwargs – Arbitrary arguments passed to the compiler frontend and backend.

Returns:

The transformed program(s).

Return type:

Any

to_flow_controller()

Linearize this manager into a single FlowControllerLinear, so that it can be nested inside another pass manager.

Returns:

A linearized pass manager.

Return type:

FlowControllerLinear
