A quantum circuit information generation method implemented by a computer, comprising:
- in generating of quantum circuit information indicating a target quantum circuit that includes a plurality of partial circuits,
- specifying, for each partial circuits of the plurality of partial circuits included in the target quantum circuit, a type of the each partial circuit;
- storing, for each specified type of one or more of specified types obtained by performing the specifying for the plurality of partial circuits, only one piece of first circuit information in a memory of the computer, the first circuit information including a configuration to generate any one partial circuit of partial circuits that belong to the specified type;
- and
- generating, by using one or more pieces of reference information, second circuit information that defines the target quantum circuit to store the generated second circuit information in the memory, each piece of the one or more pieces of reference information being information that includes a reference to the first circuit information associated with a corresponding type of the one or more of specified types, the generating of the second circuit information including converting, in the second circuit information, at least one or more partial circuits belonging to any one type of the one or more of specified types among the plurality of partial circuits included in the target quantum circuit to a representation using a corresponding piece of reference information among the one or more pieces of reference information.
