Class Documentation¶

class blackbird::GaussianSimulator : public blackbird::Program ¶

Device GaussianSimulator: corresponds to any able Gaussian simulator; i.e. a simulator able to apply and manipulate all Gaussian states/operations/measurements defined in Blackbird.

Public Functions

inline GaussianSimulator()¶: Constructor to initialise the device

inline GaussianSimulator(Program dev)¶: Constructor to initialise the device

inline GaussianSimulator(int num_subsystems, int s = 0, double hbar = 2)¶

Constructor to initialise the device with a specific set of parameters.

Parameters

num_subsystems – number of modes to initialise the simulator with
s – number of shots to perform
hbar – value of hbar in the canonical commutation relation

inline virtual void print_device_info()¶: prints out device information

Public Members

int ns¶: number of subsystems

int shots = 1¶: Number of shots to perform on the device (default 1)

double hb = 2.0¶

Value of \(\hbar\) to use in the commutation relation \([\hat{x},\hat{p}]=i\hbar\)
