qet-bench

This repository hosts qet-bench, a reproducible benchmark suite for the minimal two-qubit Quantum Energy Teleportation (QET) protocol.

The package lives in qet-bench/. It implements the exact Hamiltonian model, Alice measurement, classical feedforward, Bob rotation, energy ledger, null tests, count estimators, deterministic artifact scripts, an independent pure-Python reference branch, and an optional Qiskit/Aer interoperability bridge.

The scientific scope is intentionally narrow: qet-bench demonstrates Bob-side local energy extraction from ground-state correlations while keeping the global ledger explicit. It does not claim autonomous vacuum power or a hardware energy source.

Quickstart

cd qet-bench
python -m pip install -e ".[dev]" -c requirements-lock.txt
python -m pytest
python scripts/reproduce_benchmarks.py
python scripts/make_all_figures.py

Optional Qiskit/Aer smoke check:

cd qet-bench
python -m pip install -e ".[qiskit]" -c requirements-lock.txt
python scripts/run_qiskit_bridge.py
