Class for handling Quimb local TN simulator.

class QuimbBackend

Bases: Backend

Class for handling Quimb local TN simulator.

__init__(*, seed: int | None = None) → None

Initialize a local Quimb Backend.

Parameters:

seed (int | None) – Seed for the sampler. Defaults to None.

Return type:

None

property name: str

Name of the backend.

run(circuits: Circuit | Sequence[Circuit], shots: int | None) → SimulatedJob

Run circuit on the backend.

Parameters:

• circuits (Circuit | Sequence[Circuit]) – circuits to run on backend

• shots (int | None) – number of shots. Must be a positive integer

Return type:

SimulatedJob

validate_shots_type(shots_type: Type[int | None]) → list[str]

Validate that the sampler supports the given shots type. Return a list of error messages if not supported.

Parameters:

shots_type (Type[int | None])

Return type:

list[str]
