We introduce PennyLane's Lightning suite, a collection of high-performance state-vector simulators targeting CPU, GPU, and HPC-native architectures and workloads. Quantum applications such as QAOA, VQE, and synthetic workloads are implemented to demonstrate the supported classical computing architectures and showcase the scale of problems that can be simulated using our tooling. We benchmark the performance of Lightning with backends supporting CPUs, as well as NVidia and AMD GPUs, and compare the results to other commonly used high-performance simulator packages, demonstrating where Lightning's implementations give performance leads. We show improved CPU performance by employing explicit SIMD intrinsics and multi-threading, batched task-based execution across multiple GPUs, and distributed forward and gradient-based quantum circuit executions across multiple nodes. Our data shows we can comfortably simulate a variety of circuits, giving examples with up to 30 qubits on a single device or node, and up to 41 qubits using multiple nodes.

Comparing performance of variational quantum algorithm simulations on HPC systems
A parser-based toolchain can port the same Hamiltonian and ansatz across seven quantum simulators, but variational algorithms on 15 to 20 qubits show limited parallel speedup.

Partitioned Hybrid Quantum Fourier Neural Operators for Scientific Quantum Machine Learning
PH-QFNO partitions the QFNO Fourier layer into 4-wide quantum blocks and a classical remainder, matching FNO accuracy on Burgers and beating an in-house FNO on 8x8 Navier-Stokes due to a larger parameter count.
