Record 6.82 × 10¹⁶ multiplications by aurora · QArena baseline 1.48 × 10¹⁷ · Reference – (No comparable published value) · What these mean
H2 56 qubits, depth 8, 2^30 elements (56 qubits, 224 two-qubit gates). Fewer multiplications rank first. Equal counts are ranked by submission number (lower first). Each participant appears once, with their best accepted submission. Scores are public; a participant can keep the file itself private.
