During three months working on CQCL/tket, JP Acold developed and optimized core features for quantum circuit analysis and synthesis. He enhanced wire swap handling by introducing new read-only properties and feature flags, improving both correctness and test coverage in Python and C++. JP also implemented a flexible CnX gate decomposition method using ancilla qubits, expanding circuit synthesis capabilities for multi-controlled X gates. Focusing on performance, he optimized the Greedy Pauli Optimisation pass, reducing wall-clock time by about 40% on large circuits. His work demonstrated depth in algorithm design, C++ development, and performance engineering for quantum computing workflows.

April 2025 performance-focused update for CQCL/tket. Delivered a major optimization to the Greedy Pauli Optimisation pass, achieving approximately 40% reduction in wall-clock time for GreedyPauliSimp on large circuits. The optimization refines lookup tables and cost calculations within GreedyPauliOptimisation, powered by the feature work under Transforms::greedy_pauli_optimisation. This work is tracked under commit a61bbac1c07487521acd8da463023f3c85c799e8 and aligns with performance engineering goals aimed at scalability and throughput.
