Typed Compositional Quantum Computation with Lenses

Authors: Jacques Garrigue and Takafumi Saikawa

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 309, 15th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2024)


Abstract
We propose a type-theoretic framework for describing and proving properties of quantum computations, in particular those presented as quantum circuits. Our proposal is based on an observation that, in the polymorphic type system of Coq, currying on quantum states allows one to apply quantum gates directly inside a complex circuit. By introducing a discrete notion of lens to control this currying, we are further able to separate the combinatorics of the circuit structure from the computational content of gates. We apply our development to define quantum circuits recursively from the bottom up, and prove their correctness compositionally.

Short Paper
Robust Mean Estimation by All Means (Short Paper)

Authors: Reynald Affeldt, Clark Barrett, Alessandro Bruni, Ieva Daukantas, Harun Khan, Takafumi Saikawa, and Carsten Schürmann

Abstract
We report the results of a verification experiment on an algorithm for robust mean estimation, i.e., an algorithm that computes a mean in the presence of outliers. We formalize the algorithm in the Coq proof assistant and devise a pragmatic approach for identifying and solving issues related to the choice of bounds. To keep our formalization succinct and generic, we recast the original argument using an existing library for finite probabilities that we extend with reusable lemmas. To formalize the original algorithm, which relies on a subtle convergence argument, we observe that by adding suitable termination checks, we can turn it into a well-founded recursion without losing its original properties. We also exploit a tactic for solving real-valued inequalities by approximation to heuristically fix inaccurate constant values in the original proof.
