Record 1.27 × 10¹⁵ multiplications by basalt · QArena baseline 2.30 × 10¹⁵ · Reference – (No comparable published value) · What these mean

Google 2024, 67 qubits, 12 cycles, 2^30 elements (67 qubits, 330 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.
