Quantum compilation of standard code Paolo Zuliani Abstract: In this talk we shall address the problem of compiling high-level standard (classical) code to a lower level quantum hardware architecture. The problem arises when one decides to use classical code on a quantum computer, so that code can run on a superposition of states. We solve the problem in the framework provided by qGCL, a high-level imperative language for classical and quantum computation. In particular, we shall give quantum implementations of the standard conditional and loop. We also show how this work fits into a more general effort of providing a high-level compiler for qGCL.
