Programming is error-prone. It is even worse when programming a quantum computer or designing quantum communication protocols, because human intuition is much better adapted to the classical world than to the quantum world. How can we build automatic tools for verifying correctness of quantum programs? A logic for verification of both partial correctness and total correctness of quantum programs was developed in our TOPLAS ’2011 paper. The (relative) completeness of this logic was proved. Recently, a theorem prover for verification of quantum programs was built based on this logic [arXiv: 1601.03835]. To further develop automatic tools, we are working on techniques for invariant generation and synthesis of ranking functions (for termination analysis) of quantum programs.
