Extending Modern C++ for Heterogeneous Quantum-Classical Computing
summary
Claims a practical single-source C++ extension that embeds quantum kernels as lambdas, compiles them via XACC IR and Clang plugins into API calls, and runs asynchronously with std::future. Uses a new Clang syntax handler to capture tokens, performs noise-aware placement and optimizations, and targets hardware-agnostic backends (IBM, Rigetti, IonQ, D‑Wave and a Summit tensor‑network simulator). Provides runtime types for observables, optimizers and error‑mitigation decorators, ships open source, and demonstrates VQE-style workflows (deuteron example) working end-to-end.
