Task 1 Statevector simulation of quantum circuits

General task definition

For this task, you will implement a statevector simulator for quantum circuits from scratch. The goal is to demystify how to simulate a quantum computer and to demonstrate your familiarity with quantum circuits.

Subtasks

1. Naive simulation using matrix multiplication
2. Advanced simulation using tensor multiplication
3. Bonus questions

General technical aspects

Used Libraries and Programming Languages

• Python 3.12
• venv (virtual environment, any one will work)
• NumPy
• Matplotlib
• Time

Quantum Circuit Simulator

This Python script simulates the behavior of quantum circuits using NumPy for numerical computations and Matplotlib for visualization.
