Classical simulation of quantum computation is vital for verifying quantum devices and assessing quantum algorithms. We present a new quantum circuit simulator developed on the Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer. Compared with other simulators, the present one is distinguished in two aspects. First, our simulator is more versatile. The simulator consists of three mutually independent parts to compute the full, partial and single amplitudes of a quantum state with different methods. It has the function of emulating the effect of noise and support more kinds of quantum operations. Second, our simulator is of high efficiency. The simulator is designed in a two-level parallel structure to be implemented efficiently on the distributed many-core Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer. Random quantum circuits can be simulated with 40, 75 and 200 qubits on the full, partial and single amplitude, respectively. As illustrative applications of the simulator, we present a quantum fast Poisson solver and an algorithm for quantum arithmetic of evaluating transcendental functions. Our simulator is expected to have broader applications in developing quantum algorithms in various fields.

Computational fluid dynamics- (CFD-) based component-level numerical simulation technology has been widely used in the design of aeroengines. However, due to the strong coupling effects between components, the numerical simulation of the whole engine considering the full three-dimensional flow and multi-component chemical reaction is still very difficult at present. Aimed at this problem, an efficient implicit solver, 'sprayDyMFoam' for an unstructured mesh, is developed in this paper based on the Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer.

High performance computing (HPC) is a powerful tool to accelerate the Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) calculations on modern heterogeneous supercomputers. Here, we describe a massively parallel implementation of discontinuous Galerkin density functional theory (DGDFT) method on the Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer. The DGDFT method uses the adaptive local basis (ALB) functions generated on-the-fly during the self-consistent field (SCF) iteration to solve the KS equations with high precision comparable to plane-wave basis set.

Summary: Tandem mass spectrometry based database searching is a widely acknowledged and adopted method that identifies peptide sequence in shotgun proteomics. However, database searching is extremely computationally expensive, which can take days even weeks to process a large spectra dataset. To address this critical issue, this paper presents SW-Tandem, a new tool for large-scale peptide sequencing.
