Release 0.35.0

• This version of PennyLane makes it easier to import circuits from Qiskit. [(#5218)](PennyLaneAI/pennylane#5218) [(#5168)](PennyLaneAI/pennylane#5168)

  The qml.from_qiskit function converts a Qiskit QuantumCircuit into a PennyLane quantum function. Although qml.from_qiskit already exists in PennyLane, we have made a number of improvements to make importing from Qiskit easier. And yes — qml.from_qiskit functionality is compatible with both Qiskit 1.0 and earlier versions! Here's a comprehensive list of the improvements:

  • You can now append PennyLane measurements onto the quantum function returned by qml.from_qiskit. Consider this simple Qiskit circuit:

    import pennylane as qml 
    from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
    qc = QuantumCircuit(2)
    qc.rx(0.785, 0)
    qc.ry(1.57, 1)
    

    We can convert it into a PennyLane QNode in just a few lines, with PennyLane measurements easily included:

    >>> dev = qml.device("default.qubit") 
    >>> measurements = qml.expval(qml.Z(0) @ qml.Z(1)) 
    >>> qfunc = qml.from_qiskit(qc, measurements=measurements) 
    >>> qnode = qml.QNode(qfunc, dev) 
    >>> qnode() 
    tensor(0.00056331, requires_grad=True) 
    

  • Quantum circuits that already contain Qiskit-side measurements can be faithfully converted with qml.from_qiskit. Consider this example Qiskit circuit:

    qc = QuantumCircuit(3, 2) # Teleportation
    qc.rx(0.9, 0) # Prepare input state on qubit 0
    qc.h(1) # Prepare Bell state on qubits 1 and 2 qc.cx(1, 2)
    qc.cx(0, 1) # Perform teleportation
    qc.h(0)
    qc.measure(0, 0)
    qc.measure(1, 1)
    with qc.if_test((1, 1)): # Perform first conditional
    qc.x(2)
    

    This circuit can be converted into PennyLane with the Qiskit measurements still accessible. For example, we can use those results as inputs to a mid-circuit measurement in PennyLane:

Looks like pennylane is updatable in another way, so this is no longer needed.
