Dynamiqs Library: Alice & Bob launches a fast quantum simulation tool.
GPU Efficiency: NVIDIA-powered performance boosts simulation speeds by up to 60x.
Open-Source Innovation: Enhances accessibility for researchers and developers worldwide.
Alice & Bob has introduced Dynamiqs, an open-source simulation library tailored to quantum research. Dynamiqs leverages NVIDIA GPU acceleration, delivering a performance increase of up to 60 times for quantum system simulations, enhancing the study of complex quantum environments.
Developed with contributions from academic institutions, notably, University of Sherbrooke, Yale University, and the National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology (INRIA), Dynamiqs incorporates JAX and Diffrax for precise computational efficiency. This library addresses the limitations of traditional simulation tools, permitting detailed simulations of Quantum Processing Units (QPUs) and other intricate quantum structures.
"Dynamiqs brings unprecedented speed to quantum simulations, empowering researchers and engineers to explore new realms of quantum optimization and system control."
— Ronan Gautier, Theoretical Physicist, Alice & Bob
Dynamiqs resolves longstanding issues in simulating open and closed quantum systems. The inclusion of GPU acceleration allows for expanded simulation capabilities, including large-scale systems and parameter sweeps. Differentiability furthers application of advanced techniques. Quantum state tomography and optimal control are two examples.
"Alice and Bob’s work shows how simulations powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing are increasingly critical to the future of quantum computing."
— Tim Costa, Senior Director CAE EDA & Quantum, NVIDIA
The development underscores Alice & Bob’s commitment to advancing quantum computing technology. By making Dynamiqs open source, the company is enhancing the tools available to the quantum research community, supporting both academic and industrial applications.
