NVIDIA’s latest cuQuantum SDK v25.11 introduces Pauli propagation and stabilizer simulations, enhancing large-scale quantum computer simulations with GPU acceleration.

NVIDIA has unveiled its latest update to the cuQuantum SDK, version 25.11, introducing advanced techniques for simulating large-scale quantum computers. This new release features enhancements that are crucial for the acceleration of quantum computing simulations, focusing on two new workloads: Pauli propagation and stabilizer simulations, according to NVIDIA. Pauli Propagation for Quantum Circuits Pauli propagation is a novel approach that efficiently simulates the observables of quantum circuits, which include noise models of real quantum processors. This method allows for the dynamic discarding of terms that contribute insignificantly to expected values, making it possible to estimate experimental quantities that are intractable to simulate exactly. The cuQuantum SDK v25.11 offers primitives to accelerate Pauli propagation on NVIDIA GPUs, providing developers with tools to push the boundaries of classical circuit simulation. Stabilizer Simulations Stabilizer simulations, rooted in the Gottesman-Knill theorem, enable efficient classical simulation of certain quantum operations. The cuQuantum SDK’s cuStabilizer library is designed to improve the throughput of sampling rates in frame simulators. This is particularly useful for resource estimation and testing quantum error correcting codes on a large scale. The library supports both C and Python APIs, offering flexibility for developers and researchers. Practical Applications and Performance The enhancements in cuQuantum SDK v25.11 are significant for applications in quantum error correction, verification, and algorithm engineering for intermediate to large-scale quantum devices. By utilizing NVIDIA GPUs, such as the NVIDIA DGX B200, users can achieve significant speedups over traditional CPU-based simulations. For example, Pauli propagation has demonstrated impressive performance in simulating circuits that model the evolution of quantum spin systems, including IBM’s utility circuits.
