The paper reports on shuttling compilers for trapped‑ion quantum computers that are built using five large language models (LLMs) fine‑tuned on hand‑crafted shuttling schedules for linear and branched one‑dimensional trap architectures. For circuits up to 16 qubits, the fine‑tuned LLMs produce valid schedules on the training architectures, and in 12% of compilations the best of ten runs achieves up to 21% fewer operations than heuristic baselines after rule‑based post‑processing. A single run of one LLM also generates a valid schedule for a previously unseen four‑way branched architecture, providing preliminary evidence of cross‑architecture generalization, though no LLM succeeded on two other unseen architectures.

QEncodeBench evaluates whether large language models can translate classical constraint problems into verified quantum phase oracles. The benchmark measures the correctness of generated circuits using an adversarial self‑validated verifier that checks full solution‑set equivalence while enforcing resource limits. Results show that models lacking a reasoning mode perform poorly, whereas enabling native reasoning improves accuracy tenfold; semantic errors dominate, and neuro‑symbolic pipelines close most gaps by delegating critical composition to deterministic procedures.

arXiv:2508. 20134v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Programming quantum circuits at the OpenQASM level is essential for achieving hardware-aware optimization and reliable execution on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices, yet it remains challenging due to the need for domain-specific planning, iterative code synthesis, and low-level calibration.

Cross-Backend QIEO is a runtime core for quantum-inspired evolutionary optimization that unifies execution across OpenMP5, CUDA, HIP, and multiple high-level languages. It compiles a single C++ implementation per hardware target and dispatches to CPU, multi-core, NVIDIA, or AMD backends at runtime, adapting kernels to each device’s memory hierarchy. The framework is validated with real-world bindings: a Python neural‑network hyperparameter optimizer achieving 88.60 % MNIST accuracy, a MATLAB wind‑farm layout optimizer matching particle swarm results and outperforming genetic algorithms, and a Julia package that reduces mean SSE by 2.1× in Lotka–Volterra parameter estimation.

arXiv:2605. 25572v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The growing complexity of quantum programming frameworks has exposed a critical limitation in existing large language model (LLM)-based code assistants: general-purpose models hallucinate PennyLane-specific gate names, misplace device configurations, and produce structurally invalid circuits when faced with specialized quantum coding challenges.

AlphaClifford is a model‑based reinforcement learning framework that uses Monte Carlo Tree Search to synthesize Clifford circuits from the H, S, and CNOT gate set. By modeling the state space with the algebraic properties of the symplectic group, it consistently reduces total and two‑qubit gate counts compared to existing heuristics. The approach also extends to hardware‑constrained transpilation and serves as a post‑synthesis optimizer in a full Clifford+T pipeline.
