Bases: Target, ABC

Abstract base class describing a quantum hardware target for Anyon devices.

This class extends qiskit.transpiler.Target and provides a common interface for defining the characteristics of Anyon-based quantum devices, such as Yukon or MonarQ.

The target defines:

  • The physical qubits available on the device

  • The device coupling map

  • The supported gate set

  • Gate durations and error rates

  • Measurement operations

Hardware calibration data (gate errors, measurement errors, and coherence times) are optionally retrieved through qiskit_calculquebec.API.adapter.ApiAdapter.

Subclasses must implement methods describing the hardware topology.

Note:

This class is abstract and cannot be instantiated directly. Concrete subclasses must implement:

  • coupling_map()

  • qubits()

  • device_name()

Example:

Example of a concrete device target:

class Yukon(AnyonTarget):

    def coupling_map(self):
        return [(0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 2), (2, 1)]

    def qubits(self):
        return list(range(6))

    def device_name(self):
        return "Yukon"

add_instruction(instruction, properties=None, name=None, *, angle_bounds=None)#

Add a new instruction to the Target

As Target objects are strictly additive this is the primary method for modifying a Target. Typically, you will use this to fully populate a Target before using it in BackendV2. For example:

from qiskit.circuit.library import CXGate
from qiskit.transpiler import Target, InstructionProperties

target = Target()
cx_properties = {
    (0, 1): None,
    (1, 0): None,
    (0, 2): None,
    (2, 0): None,
    (0, 3): None,
    (2, 3): None,
    (3, 0): None,
    (3, 2): None
}
target.add_instruction(CXGate(), cx_properties)

Will add a CXGate to the target with no properties (duration, error, etc) with the coupling edge list: (0, 1), (1, 0), (0, 2), (2, 0), (0, 3), (2, 3), (3, 0), (3, 2). If there are properties available for the instruction you can replace the None value in the properties dictionary with an InstructionProperties object. This pattern is repeated for each Instruction the target supports.

Parameters:
  • instruction (Union[qiskit.circuit.Instruction, Type[qiskit.circuit.Instruction]]) – The operation object to add to the map. If it’s parameterized any value of the parameter can be set. Optionally for variable width instructions (such as control flow operations such as ForLoop or MCXGate) you can specify the class. If the class is specified then the name argument must be specified. When a class is used the gate is treated as global and not having any properties set.

  • properties (dict) – A dictionary of qarg entries to an InstructionProperties object for that instruction implementation on the backend. Properties are optional for any instruction implementation, if there are no InstructionProperties available for the backend the value can be None. If there are no constraints on the instruction (as in a noiseless/ideal simulation) this can be set to {None, None} which will indicate it runs on all qubits (or all available permutations of qubits for multi-qubit gates). The first None indicates it applies to all qubits and the second None indicates there are no InstructionProperties for the instruction. By default, if properties is not set it is equivalent to passing {None: None}.

  • name (str) – An optional name to use for identifying the instruction. If not specified the name attribute of gate will be used. All gates in the Target need unique names. Backends can differentiate between different parameterization of a single gate by providing a unique name for each (e.g. “rx30”, “rx60”, `”rx90”`` similar to the example in the documentation for the Target class).

  • angle_bounds (list) – The bounds on the parameters for a given gate. This is specified by a list of tuples (low, high) which represent the low and high bound (inclusively) on what float values are allowed for the parameter in that position. If a parameter doesn’t have an angle bound you can use None to represent that. For example if a 3 parameter gate only had a bound on the second parameter you would represent that with: [None, [0, 3.14], None] which means the first and third parameter allow any value but the second parameter only accepts values between 0 and 3.14.

Raises:
  • AttributeError – If gate is already in map

  • TranspilerError – If an operation class is passed in for instruction and no name is specified or properties is set.

build_coupling_map(two_q_gate=None, filter_idle_qubits=False)#

Get a CouplingMap from this target.

If there is a mix of two qubit operations that have a connectivity constraint and those that are globally defined this will also return None because the global connectivity means there is no constraint on the target. If you wish to see the constraints of the two qubit operations that have constraints you should use the two_q_gate argument to limit the output to the gates which have a constraint.

Parameters:
  • two_q_gate (str) – An optional gate name for a two qubit gate in the Target to generate the coupling map for. If specified the output coupling map will only have edges between qubits where this gate is present.

  • filter_idle_qubits (bool) – If set to True the output CouplingMap will remove any qubits that don’t have any operations defined in the target. Note that using this argument will result in an output CouplingMap object which has holes in its indices which might differ from the assumptions of the class. The typical use case of this argument is to be paired with CouplingMap.connected_components() which will handle the holes as expected.

Returns:

The CouplingMap object

for this target. If there are no connectivity constraints in the target this will return None.

Return type:

CouplingMap

Raises:
  • ValueError – If a non-two qubit gate is passed in for two_q_gate.

  • IndexError – If an Instruction not in the Target is passed in for two_q_gate.

abstractmethod coupling_map()#

Return the device coupling map.

The coupling map defines the connectivity between physical qubits.

Returns:

List of directed qubit connections.

Return type:

list[tuple[int, int]]

abstractmethod device_name()#

Return the name of the quantum device.

Returns:

Device name used to retrieve calibration data.

Return type:

str

durations()#

Get an InstructionDurations object from the target

Returns:

The instruction duration represented in the

target

Return type:

InstructionDurations

Create a target object from the individual global configuration

Prior to the creation of the Target class, the constraints of a backend were represented by a collection of different objects which combined represent a subset of the information contained in the Target. This function provides a simple interface to convert those separate objects to a Target.

This constructor will use the input from basis_gates, num_qubits, and coupling_map to build a base model of the backend and the instruction_durations, backend_properties, and inst_map inputs are then queried (in that order) based on that model to look up the properties of each instruction and qubit. If there is an inconsistency between the inputs any extra or conflicting information present in instruction_durations, backend_properties, or inst_map will be ignored.

Parameters:
  • basis_gates – The list of basis gate names for the backend. For the target to be created these names must either be in the output from get_standard_gate_name_mapping() or present in the specified custom_name_mapping argument.

  • num_qubits – The number of qubits supported on the backend.

  • coupling_map – The coupling map representing connectivity constraints on the backend. If specified all gates from basis_gates will be supported on all qubits (or pairs of qubits).

  • instruction_durations – Optional instruction durations for instructions. If specified it will take priority for setting the duration field in the InstructionProperties objects for the instructions in the target.

  • concurrent_measurements (list) – A list of sets of qubits that must be measured together. This must be provided as a nested list like [[0, 1], [2, 3, 4]].

  • dt – The system time resolution of input signals in seconds

  • timing_constraints – Optional timing constraints to include in the Target

  • custom_name_mapping – An optional dictionary that maps custom gate/operation names in basis_gates to an Operation object representing that gate/operation. By default, most standard gates names are mapped to the standard gate object from qiskit.circuit.library this only needs to be specified if the input basis_gates defines gates in names outside that set.

Returns:

the target built from the input configuration

Return type:

Target

Raises:
  • TranspilerError – If the input basis gates contain > 2 qubits and coupling_map is

  • specified.

  • KeyError – If no mapping is available for a specified basis_gate.

gate_has_angle_bounds(name)#

Check if a specific gate gate has an angle bound set

Parameters:

name (str) – The instruction name to check if it has an angle bound set

Returns:

This will return True if the gate is in the target and has angle bounds defined. It will return False if the gate does not have angle bounds defined or is not in the target.

Return type:

bool

get(key, default=None)#

Gets an item from the Target. If not found return a provided default or None.

get_non_global_operation_names(strict_direction=False)#

Return the non-global operation names for the target

The non-global operations are those in the target which don’t apply on all qubits (for single qubit operations) or all multi-qubit qargs (for multi-qubit operations).

Parameters:

strict_direction (bool) – If set to True the multi-qubit operations considered as non-global respect the strict direction (or order of qubits in the qargs is significant). For example, if cx is defined on (0, 1) and ecr is defined over (1, 0) by default neither would be considered non-global, but if strict_direction is set True both cx and ecr would be returned.

Returns:

A list of operation names for operations that aren’t global in this target

Return type:

List[str]

has_angle_bounds()#

Check if there are any angle bounds set in the target

Returns:

This will return True if there are angle bounds set on any instructions in the circuit

Return type:

bool

instruction_properties(index)#

Get the instruction properties for a specific instruction tuple

This method is to be used in conjunction with the instructions attribute of a Target object. You can use this method to quickly get the instruction properties for an element of instructions by using the index in that list. However, if you’re not working with instructions directly it is likely more efficient to access the target directly via the name and qubits to get the instruction properties. For example, if instructions returned:

[(XGate(), (0,)), (XGate(), (1,))]

you could get the properties of the XGate on qubit 1 with:

props = target.instruction_properties(1)

but just accessing it directly via the name would be more efficient:

props = target['x'][(1,)]

(assuming the XGate’s canonical name in the target is 'x') This is especially true for larger targets as this will scale worse with the number of instruction tuples in a target.

Parameters:

index (int) – The index of the instruction tuple from the instructions attribute. For, example if you want the properties from the third element in instructions you would set this to be 2.

Returns:

The instruction properties for the specified instruction tuple

Return type:

InstructionProperties

instruction_supported(operation_name=None, qargs=Ellipsis, operation_class=None, parameters=None, check_angle_bounds=True)#

Return whether the instruction (operation + qubits) is supported by the target

Parameters:
  • operation_name (str) – The name of the operation for the instruction. Either this or operation_class must be specified, if both are specified operation_class will take priority and this argument will be ignored.

  • qargs (tuple) – The tuple of qubit indices for the instruction. If this is not specified then this method will return True if the specified operation is supported on any qubits. The typical application will always have this set (otherwise it’s the same as just checking if the target contains the operation). Normally you would not set this argument if you wanted to check more generally that the target supports an operation with the parameters on any qubits.

  • operation_class (Type[qiskit.circuit.Instruction]) – The operation class to check whether the target supports a particular operation by class rather than by name. This lookup is more expensive as it needs to iterate over all operations in the target instead of just a single lookup. If this is specified it will supersede the operation_name argument. The typical use case for this operation is to check whether a specific variant of an operation is supported on the backend. For example, if you wanted to check whether a RXGate was supported on a specific qubit with a fixed angle. That fixed angle variant will typically have a name different from the object’s name attribute ("rx") in the target. This can be used to check if any instances of the class are available in such a case.

  • parameters (list) –

    A list of parameters to check if the target supports them on the specified qubits. If the instruction supports the parameter values specified in the list on the operation and qargs specified this will return True but if the parameters are not supported on the specified instruction it will return False. If this argument is not specified this method will return True if the instruction is supported independent of the instruction parameters. If specified with any Parameter objects in the list, that entry will be treated as supporting any value, however parameter names will not be checked (for example if an operation in the target is listed as parameterized with "theta" and "phi" is passed into this function that will return True). For example, if called with:

    parameters = [Parameter("theta")]
    target.instruction_supported("rx", (0,), parameters=parameters)
    

    will return True if an RXGate is supported on qubit 0 that will accept any parameter. If you need to check for a fixed numeric value parameter this argument is typically paired with the operation_class argument. For example:

    target.instruction_supported("rx", (0,), RXGate, parameters=[pi / 4])
    

    will return True if an RXGate(pi/4) exists on qubit 0.

  • check_angle_bounds (bool) – If set to True (the default) the value of parameters will be validated against any angle bounds set in the target. If any of the values in parameters are set to be ParameterExpression instances this flag will have no effect as angle bounds only impact non-parameterized operations in the circuit.

Returns:

Returns True if the instruction is supported and False if it isn’t.

bool

set
