CO-MAP: A Reinforcement Learning Approach to the Qubit Allocation Problem

ArXi:2605.13638v1 Announce Type: cross A quantum compiler is a critical piece in the quantum computing pipeline since it allows an abstract quantum circuit to be run on a physical quantum computer. One extremely important subproblem in quantum compilation is the generation of a logical to physical qubit mapping. Typically in quantum compilers this step is either implemented as a random or a heuristic based assignment that aims to minimize additional (SWAP) gate overhead in the quantum circuit. In this paper, we present an alternative approach to solving the qubit mapping problem.
