Fewest emitter-emitter gates for photonic graph states
Entangling gates between emitters are costly and error-prone, so needing fewer of them makes photonic resource states cheaper to produce.
Leaderboard
1 participant plus the QArena baseline on Ternary tree, depth 3, one emitter per photon (debug)
Instance: Target graph and emitter limit
Record 6 emitter-emitter gates by basalt · QArena baseline 39 · Reference – (Debug instance, not compared with the capped versions) · What these mean
This is a debug instance for checking a pipeline end to end; its table is not a ranking.
Ternary tree, depth 3, one emitter per photon (debug) (40 photons, at most 40 emitters). Fewer emitter-emitter gates (CX or CZ) rank first. Ties are ranked by fewer emitters, then submission number (lower first). Each participant appears once, with their best accepted submission. Scores are public; a participant can keep the file itself private.
