• Abstract: Current quantum devices only support interactions between physical qubits and a limited number of neighboring qubits, preventing quantum circuits from being executed directly on the devices. To execute the circuit, SWAP gates must be inserted to adjust the mapping relationships between qubits, which consequently increases runtime and error rates in quantum circuits. To address these challenges, this paper proposes HAIL, an efficient iterative qubit mapping algorithm to minimize additional SWAP gates. First, a layer-weight assignment method integrated with the subgraph isomorphism algorithm is introduced to establish an initial mapping. Next, we propose a SWAP sequence search combined with the post-processing function to identify the optimal SWAP sequences. Finally, the qubit mapping algorithm is refined through iterative forward and backward traversals to further reduce the number of SWAP gates. Experimental results on the IBM Q20 architecture and various benchmarks demonstrate that HAIL-3 reduces the number of additional gates inserted in the $\mathcal{B}_{23}$ by 20.62% compared to state-of-the-art algorithms. Additionally, we present a partially extended strategy based on HAIL to reduce the sequence search space, with experiments on the sparsely connected Google Sycamore architecture showing a reduction in both algorithm runtime and additional SWAP gates.
