The paper presents a reinforcement‑learning approach to schedule link‑level entanglement in quantum networks, using a Markov Decision Process and double deep Q‑networks with message‑passing neural networks. The resulting policies achieve 100% success rates even when the link activation probability is reduced by up to 71% compared to baseline heuristics, and maintain at least 80% success when task placements are hardware‑restricted. The authors also develop metrics to interpret the learned policy and employ a large language model to generate a heuristic that matches the DQN performance, suggesting a scalable method for extracting interpretable strategies in large quantum networks.
The paper introduces GenQAS, a tensor network‑guided reinforcement learning framework that uses a learned local transition model to generate synthetic circuit transitions for prioritized generative replay. By mixing these synthetic transitions with real experience during Double Deep Q‑Network updates, GenQAS addresses sample starvation in quantum architecture search. Across benchmarks ranging from 6 to 15 qubits, the method improves success probabilities, identifies compact circuits, and reduces steps to chemical accuracy by up to 92.7%.
arXiv:2607. 06230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) are increasingly used as policies and value functions in quantum reinforcement learning, yet it remains unclear when and why quantum policies generalize.
The paper introduces GenQAS, a tensor‑network‑guided reinforcement learning framework that uses a learned local transition model to generate synthetic circuit transitions for prioritized generative replay. By mixing these synthetic transitions with real experience during Double Deep Q‑Network updates, GenQAS addresses sample starvation in quantum architecture search. Experiments on chemical Hamiltonian benchmarks up to 12 qubits and a 15‑qubit Ising model show significant improvements in success probability and circuit compactness, while a noisy 6‑qubit BeH₂ transfer experiment demonstrates a 92.7% reduction in steps to chemical accuracy.

QART is a quantum‑classical hybrid architecture that augments a language model with quantum encoding, CIM‑based QUBO optimization, and quantum decoding to improve long‑horizon reasoning. The authors claim that, under certain assumptions, QART can maintain a non‑zero probability of recovering an optimal reasoning path while traditional autoregressive LLMs see their acceptance probability drop to zero as cumulative risk grows. Experiments on six benchmarks with three backbone models show that QART outperforms the baselines in 14 of 15 pairings, with relative gains up to 84.0% on SciCode.
