Qsurface is a simulation package for the surface code, and is designed to modularize 3 aspects of a surface code simulation.

1. The surface code
2. The error model
3. The used decoder

New types of surface codes, error modules and decoders can be added to Qsurface by using the included templates for each of the three core module categories.

The current included decoders are:

* The *Mininum-Weight Perfect Matching* (`mwpm`) decoder.
* [Delfosse's and Nickerson's](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1709.06218.pdf) *Union-Find* (`unionfind`) decoder, which has *almost-linear* worst-case time complexity.
* Our modification to the Union-Find decoder; the *Union-Find Node-Suspension* (`ufns`) decoder, which improves the threshold of the Union-Find decoder to near MWPM performance, while retaining quasi-linear worst-case time complexity.

The compatibility of these decoders with the included surface codes are listed below.

| Decoders  | `toric` code | `planar` code |
|-----------|--------------|---------------|
|`mwpm`     |✅            |✅             |
|`unionfind`|✅            |✅             |
|`ufns`     |✅            |✅             |

# Installation

All required packages can be installed through:

```bash
pip install qsurface
```

## Requirements

* Python 3.7+
* [Tkinter](https://docs.python.org/3/library/tkinter.html) or [PyQt5](https://riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/intro) for interactive plotting.
* Matplotlib 3.4+ for plotting on a 3D lattice

### MWPM decoder

The MWPM decoder utilizes `networkx` for finding the minimal weights in a fully connected graph. This implementation is however rather slow compared to Kolmogorov's [Blossom V](https://pub.ist.ac.at/~vnk/software.html) algorithm. Blossom V has its own license and is thus not included with Qsurface. We do provided a single function to download and compile Blossom V, and to setup the integration with Qsurface automatically.

```python
>>> from qsurface.decoders import mwpm
>>> mwpm.get_blossomv()
```

# Usage

To simulate the toric code and simulate with bitflip error for 10 iterations and decode with the MWPM decoder:

```python
>>> from qsurface.main import initialize, run
>>> code, decoder = initialize((6,6), "toric", "mwpm", enabled_errors=["pauli"])
>>> run(code, decoder, iterations=10, error_rates = {"p_bitflip": 0.1})
{'no_error': 8}
```

Benchmarking of decoders can be enabled by attaching a *benchmarker* object to the decoder. See the docs for the syntax and information to setup benchmarking.

```python
>>> from qsurface.main import initialize, run
>>> benchmarker = BenchmarkDecoder({"decode":"duration"})
>>> run(code, decoder, iterations=10, error_rates = {"p_bitflip": 0.1}, benchmark=benchmarker)
{'no_error': 8,
'benchmark': {'success_rate': [10, 10],
'seed': 12447.413636559,
'durations': {'decode': {'mean': 0.00244155000000319,
'std': 0.002170364089572033}}}}
```

## Plotting

The figures in Qsurface allows for step-by-step visualization of the surface code simulation (and if supported the decoding process). Each figure logs its history such that the user can move backwards in time to view past states of the surface (and decoder). Press `h` when the figure is open for more information.

```python
>>> from qsurface.main import initialize, run
>>> code, decoder = initialize((6,6), "toric", "mwpm", enabled_errors=["pauli"], plotting=True, initial_states=(0,0))
>>> run(code, decoder, error_rates = {"p_bitflip": 0.1, "p_phaseflip": 0.1}, decode_initial=False)
```

Plotting will be performed on a 3D axis if faulty measurements are enabled.

```python
>>> code, decoder = initialize((3,3), "toric", "mwpm", enabled_errors=["pauli"], faulty_measurements=True, plotting=True, initial_states=(0,0))
>>> run(code, decoder, error_rates = {"p_bitflip": 0.05, "p_bitflip_plaq": 0.05}, decode_initial=False)
```

In IPython, inline images are created for each iteration of the plot, which can be tested in the [example notebook](https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/watermarkhu/qsurface/master?filepath=examples.ipynb).

## Command line interface

Simulations can also be initiated from the command line

```bash
$ python -m qsurface -e pauli -D mwpm -C toric simulation --p_bitflip 0.1 -n 10
{'no_error': 8}
```

For more information on command line interface:

```bash
$ python -m qsurface -h
usage: qsurface
...
```
