Abstract

The paper addresses the optimization of dynamic circuits in quantum computing, with a focus on reducing the cost of mid-circuit measurements and resets. We extend the probabilistic circuit model (PCM) and implement an optimization framework that targets both mid-circuit measurements and resets. To overcome the limitation of the prior PCM-based pass, where optimizations are only possible on pure single-qubit states, we incorporate circuit synthesis to enable optimizations on multi-qubit states. With a parameter npcmn_{pcm}, our framework balances optimization level against resource usage.We evaluate our framework using a large dataset of randomly generated dynamic circuits. Experimental results demonstrate that our method is highly effective in reducing mid-circuit measurements and resets. In our demonstrative example, when applying our optimization framework to the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm after employing qubit reuse, we significantly reduce its runtime overhead by removing all of the resets.
