About

My work focuses on developing micro-optimized statevector simulators for Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) circuits and variational models (VQE/QML). I am the creator and core maintainer of dense-evolution, a framework distributed on PyPI that leverages Linear Kernel Fusion via JAX JIT/XLA compilation. By eliminating explicit matrix expansions, it minimizes memory footprints and completely nullifies numerical drift. I constantly explore the intersection of mathematical rigor, low-level optimization, and complex physical dynamics to push the boundaries of quantum circuit simulation.

dense-evolution - High-performance JAX + CuPy NISQ quantum circuit simulator

An open-source Statevector Quantum Simulator engineered to bypass the steep XLA memory and tracking overhead typical of JAX beyond 20 qubits. It utilizes custom Linear Kernel Fusion and Circuit Chunking to eliminate host RAM saturation during deep NISQ circuit executions, enabling seamless hardware-agnostic acceleration across multi-core CPUs and CUDA-powered GPUs via CuPy.
