Quantum Volume Benchmark 2D: Heavy Output Generation

Interactive 2D quantum-volume benchmark: run random square circuits through a real statevector simulator, drag-pan the circuit lattice, watch the heavy-output histogram and HOP convergence trace form live, and see how gate error and shot noise decide whether a processor certifies QV = 2^n.

Quantum Volume is the industry standard IBM introduced to grade real quantum processors with one number: run a random "square" circuit of n qubits and depth n, and check whether the machine still reproduces more probability mass in the upper half of the output distribution — the heavy outputs — than an untrained coin flip would. This simulator runs an actual complex-amplitude statevector simulation of that circuit (random SU(4) two-qubit gates over a random pairing, layer by layer), draws the circuit lattice as a pannable/zoomable 2D diagram alongside the resulting output-probability histogram and a live HOP-convergence trace, and then fires simulated measurement shots whose noise is driven by a gate-error slider, so you can watch the empirical heavy-output probability converge toward its theoretical value and see exactly where a device would pass or fail certification at QV = 2ⁿ.

⚙ Under the hood

Run real random square circuits through a statevector simulator, drag-pan the 2D circuit lattice, watch the heavy-output histogram and a live HOP-convergence trace form, and see whether gate error and shot noise let a processor certify Quantum Volume = 2^n.
