• Abstract: In this work, we introduce new methods for the quantization, decomposition, and extraction (from electromagnetic simulations) of lumped-element circuit models for superconducting quantum devices. Our flux-charge symmetric procedures center on the network matrix, which encodes the connectivity of a circuit's inductive loops and capacitive nodes. First, we use the network matrix to demonstrate a simple algorithm for circuit quantization, giving novel predictions for the Hamiltonians of circuits with both Josephson junctions and quantum phase slip wires. We then show that by performing pivoting operations on the network matrix, we can decompose a superconducting circuit model into its simplest equivalent "fundamental" form, in which the harmonic degrees of freedom are separated out from the Josephson junctions and phase slip wires. Finally, we illustrate how to extract an exact, transformerless circuit model from electromagnetic simulations of a device's hybrid admittance/impedance response matrix, by matching the lumped circuit's network matrix to the network topology of the physical layout. Overall, we provide a toolkit of intuitive methods that can be used to construct, analyze, and manipulate superconducting circuit models.

  We present a supervised pretraining approach to learn circuit representations that can be adapted to new unseen topologies or unseen prediction tasks. To cope with the variable topological structure of different circuits we describe each circuit as a graph and use graph neural networks (GNNs) to learn node embeddings. We show that pretraining GNNs on prediction of output node voltages can encourage learning representations that can be adapted to new unseen topologies or prediction of new circuit level properties.
