to QuTiP: Quantum Toolbox in Python

My name is Atharva Jadhav, and I am a software engineering student with a deep interest in high-performance computing and quantum simulations. I am writing to introduce myself as I begin my journey toward contributing to QuTiP for GSoC 2026.

I have always been fascinated by how software architecture can accelerate scientific discovery. I am particularly drawn to QuTiP because of its critical role in the quantum research community and its commitment to open-source excellence.

What I’ve Done So Far: To hit the ground running, I have successfully:

Environment Setup: Completed the full development build of QuTiP on my local machine.
First Contribution (PR #2799): I have submitted a Pull Request to address Issue #2315, parallelizing the _correlation_3op_dm solver using parallel_map.
Performance Benchmarking: On my 16-CPU setup, I achieved a significant reduction in wall-clock time, dropping execution to ~0.09s for the benchmark case.

My Goals: I am eager to contribute more to the library's performance and stability. I am currently looking into Issue #2315 and related memory safety issues regarding data_as views to further understand QuTiP’s core data structures.

I look forward to learning from the mentors and contributing to the evolution of QuTiP. Any feedback on my current PR or suggestions for other high-priority areas would be greatly appreciated.
