Abstract

This paper introduces QXymb, a general framework for constructing observational declarative twins of quantum circuits, and develops QILP-0, its first complete order-0 specialization. QILP-0 constructs a finite multi-valued propositional logic program from observed circuit behaviour within a declared observational scope. The pipeline traverses a declared family of quantum observables incrementally according to a reproducible structural grading and a declared observational reference horizon. Progress is quantified through reference-relative coverage against a fixed target-independent reference. Observable responses are organized through target-independent geometry, while retained latent structure is mapped deterministically back to original observable columns before symbolic processing, preserving observational semantics and provenance. Selected observable profiles are converted into a finite relation through admissible target-independent discretization. The target is used only afterwards to audit twin-admissibility and induce the declarative theory. A theory is certified as an exact observational declarative twin when it completely and correctly reconstructs the resulting finite task-conditioned discrete relation. Logical exactness is therefore separated from numerical, backend, provider, and discretization uncertainty, which is retained as audit metadata. Validation uses two complementary QML settings. Exhaustive Bars & Stripes experiments compare product and grid-CZ embeddings from 16 to 100 qubits and exercise the native-discrete branch. Low-Depth MNIST analyses all 14,708 digit-0/1 instances before and after a trained variational quantum transformation and exercises continuous discretization. In every reported relation, the induced QILP-0 theory achieves complete, conflict-free reconstruction with strict accuracy equal to one.
