qopt: An experiment-oriented Qubit Simulation and Quantum Optimal Control Package — •Julian Teske and Hendrik Bluhm — JARA-FIT Institute for Quantum Information, Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH and RWTH Aachen University, 52074 Aachen, Germany

Realistic modelling of qubit systems including noise and constraints imposed by control hardware is required for performance prediction and control optimization of quantum processors. We introduce qopt, a software framework for simulating qubit dynamics and robust quantum optimal control considering common experimental situations. To this end, we model open and closed qubit systems with a focus on the simulation of realistic noise characteristics and experimental constraints. Specifically, the influence of noise can be calculated using Monte Carlo methods, effective master equations or with the efficient filter function formalism, which enables the investigation and mitigation of auto-correlated noise. In addition, limitations of control electronics including finite bandwidth effects can be considered. The calculation of gradients based on analytic results is implemented to facilitate the efficient optimization of control pulses. The software is published under an open source license, well-tested and features a detailed documentation.
