arXiv:2608. 12936v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks.

As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks. Quantum resource estimation (QRE) plays a central role in this transition, yet existing approaches remain largely compilation-heavy or domain-knowledge-guided symbolic annotations, and tightly coupled to long-term fault-tolerant assumptions, limiting their topical applicability.
arXiv:2606. 09734v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training parameterised quantum circuits (PQCs) on quantum hardware is bottlenecked by the measurement cost of gradient estimation, which under the parameter-shift rule scales linearly in the number of trainable parameters and dominates the total shot budget of training at scale.

arXiv:2606. 01291v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training Variational Quantum Circuits (VQCs) under Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) constraints introduces severe computational limitations: classical statevector simulation memory scales exponentially ($\mathcal{O}(2^n)$), and global cost functions suffer from barren plateaus where gradient variance decays exponentially ($\mathcal{O}(1/2^n)$).
