Entanglement-Capability-Aware Finite-Bond Circuit Cutting for Distributed Quantum Computing

Distributed quantum computing distributes workloads that exceed a single processor's capacity across resource-constrained components. Circuit cutting enables this decomposition, but its effectiveness depends on partition choice. We present SACE, a Simulation-Aware Circuit Partitioning framework with Entanglement-Capability-Aware Screening. EP-Cost screens partitions using a parameter-dependent entanglement-capability proxy and native implementation cost. Under reconstruction constraints, finite-bond refinement selects the candidate that minimizes the worst-subcircuit discrepancy between normalized MPS simulations at bond dimensions $χ$ and $2χ$. Across 14 exhaustively enumerated small-scale candidate spaces, EP-Cost-guided genetic algorithm selections attain co-optimal native quasiprobability decomposition (QPD) overhead, with a median within-circuit Spearman correlation of 0.9965 between EP-Cost and QPD overhead. At matched cut counts, EP-Cost reduces QPD overhead by $25.20\times$ and $16.89\times$ for 8- and 9-qubit QFT circuits, respectively, and improves sampled reconstruction. On 12-qubit approximate QFT, deterministic reconstruction reduces Pauli-observable mean absolute error in all six low-bond conditions and total-variation distance in five. With five cuts and 7,776 QPD terms, SACE is best on all four reconstruction metrics in four of six conditions. At 24 qubits, SACE improves exact-local QFT accuracy in all 30 instance-bond-dimension conditions against each EP-Cost-only, Kernighan-Lin, and spectral baseline. The 50-qubit QFT comparisons remain favorable as reference convergence improves. Weighted QAOA circuits provide complementary, more bond-sensitive evidence. Refinement benefits persist across three search methods; larger candidate panels improve the optimized proxy without guaranteeing lower exact-local error.

A CPU+DCU Heterogeneous Parallel Framework for Post-Processing Reconstruction in Quantum Circuit Cutting

In the NISQ era, limited qubit resources make it difficult to execute large quantum circuits directly on real hardware. Quantum circuit cutting mitigates this limitation by decomposing a large circuit into smaller subcircuits, but it shifts substantial overhead to classical post-processing. As circuit size, complexity, and cut count increase, reconstruction becomes a major computational and storage bottleneck. This paper presents a CPU+DCU heterogeneous parallel framework for circuit-cutting post-processing reconstruction. Instead of constructing a dense $2^n$-dimensional probability vector or returning only high-probability states, the framework reconstructs the nonzero-probability states in the original output distribution from subcircuit measurement results. It combines heterogeneous CPU+DCU execution with a high/low-word integer representation for global basis-state indices beyond 64 bits and a three-level cooperative storage mechanism spanning device memory, host memory, and out-of-core storage. Experiments on the Songshan supercomputer show that the framework maintains high reconstruction fidelity while achieving up to $259\times$ speedup over an optimized serial baseline on linear-cluster states and up to $4\times$ speedup over a homogeneous CPU-parallel method on random circuits. The framework can also complete reconstruction tasks at the hundred-qubit scale. These results demonstrate that HPC-oriented heterogeneous reconstruction can effectively alleviate the classical post-processing bottleneck and improve reconstruction scalability.
