iqm.qiskit_iqm.iqm_provider.IQMFacadeBackend

class iqm.qiskit_iqm.iqm_provider.IQMFacadeBackend(client: IQMClient, **kwargs)

Bases: IQMBackend

Simulates the execution of quantum circuits on a mock IQM quantum computer.

Can be used to submit a circuit to a mock IQM server that has no real quantum hardware, and if the mock execution is successful, simulates the circuit locally using an error model that is representative of the mocked QPU. Finally returns the simulated results.

Parameters:

• client (IQMClient) – Client instance for communicating with an IQM server.

• **kwargs – Optional arguments to be passed to the parent class.

Attributes

architecture	Dynamic quantum architecture of the backend instance.
name	Name of the backend.
description	Optional human-readable description.
online_date	Date that the backend came online.
backend_version	Version of the backend being provided.

Methods

_determine_facade_backend_from_sqa()
_validate_no_empty_cregs(circuit)	Returns True if given circuit has no empty (unused) classical registers, False otherwise.
run(run_input, **options)	Run a quantum circuit or a list of quantum circuits on the IQM quantum computer represented by this backend.

run(run_input: QuantumCircuit | list[QuantumCircuit], **options) → JobV1

Run a quantum circuit or a list of quantum circuits on the IQM quantum computer represented by this backend.

Parameters:

• run_input (QuantumCircuit | list[QuantumCircuit]) – The circuits to run.

• options – Keyword arguments passed on to create_run_request(), and documented there.

Returns:

Job object from which the results can be obtained once the execution has finished.

Return type:

JobV1
