GadIR: A Spatial-Topology Preserving Compiler for Quantum Many-Body Systems Simulation

Simulating quantum many-body systems has been one of the most important applications of quantum computation. For simulation, the Hamiltonian of a physical system is compiled into quantum programs with native instructions for quantum hardware. In previous works, the Hamiltonian is represented as Pauli strings, then compiled and optimized based on the quantum circuit model. Such representation paradigm neglects the spatial topology of original physical models, which is vital information to reducing the overhead of compiling many-body systems Hamiltonians. To address such neglect, we introduce a spatial-topology preserving compiler for quantum many-body simulation. Using Pauli gadgets as the representations of the Hamiltonian, we introduce our intermediate representation -- GadIR, to preserve the spatial-topology information of original physical models. Our compiler frontend performs the group reduction algorithm based on Pauli gadget model, which is a hardware-independent optimization. Our compiler backend performs trotterization and scheduling on Pauli gadgets, then synthesizes the Pauli gadgets into hardware-native quantum programs. We evaluate our compiler on all the canonical quantum many-body system models, while achieving a significant reduction on compilation overhead regarding four major quantum architectures. Overall, our spatial-topology preserving IR exploits the compilation optimization space for quantum many-body systems Hamiltonian.

SIR: Self-improving Red-teaming for Compute Use Agents

Computer use agents (CUAs) are vision-language models that perceive a screen and act on a real operating system through mouse, keyboard, and terminal, and they are increasingly deployed to automate everyday digital tasks. Because they can be exposed to untrusted content while operating, they are vulnerable to indirect prompt injection (IPI), in which an adversary plants instructions in content the agent will read and redirects it toward actions that violate the user's intent. Existing CUA safety benchmarks evaluate fixed injections written by hand, which may underestimate the risk posed by an adaptive adversary. We present SIR, a black box IPI attack that (i) composes stealthy injections from a small library of reusable principles stated in plain language and (ii) wraps composition in an iterative feedback loop that diagnoses the victim's failed trajectories and distills the bypasses into new, named strategies that are reapplied across tasks. Unlike prior red teaming of web agents, we target CUAs at the operating system level and score attacks with a fully deterministic oracle, using checks on filesystem, service, and permission state rather than an LLM judge. On experiment, we evaluate three frontier CUAs. Composing principles with feedback raises the attack success rate over a baseline written by hand, for example from 4% to 24% on Claude Opus 4.8 and from 0% to 28% on Gemini 3.5 Flash, while the benign task still completes. Principles discovered against one model further transfer to a different architecture with no additional feedback.
