… The overarching goal of this thesis is to write and verify quantum programs together.
Towards that end, we introduce a quantum programming language called Qwire and embed it …

… In order to have verification that works, you need both an error semantics related … quantum
programming where we start by writing and verifying programs at a high level, attempt to verify …

is to our best knowledge the first formally verified program verifier for a high-level quantum …

… Then we come to concrete quantum programming and formal verification material. In … for
the formal verification of quantum compilation and the equivalence of quantum program runs. …

… languages geared towards supporting formal verification, qubits are treated like any other
data type in Q#. Some languages, such as Proto-Quipper-M 92 , use a linear-type system to …

… Section 3 discusses why debugging quantum software is hard. In … formal verification, where
we describe the background of how we can provide stronger guarantees to programs before …

… Turing machines are purely abstract setting of quantum computation, and … to verify algorithms
and protocols, we focus on neither circuits nor Turing machines but quantum programming …
