# StatevectorSimulatorPy
<Class id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.18/qiskit/providers/basicaer/statevector_simulator.py" signature="StatevectorSimulatorPy(configuration=None, provider=None, **fields)" modifiers="class">
Bases: `qiskit.providers.basicaer.qasm_simulator.QasmSimulatorPy`
Python statevector simulator.
Initialize a backend class
**Parameters**
* **configuration** ([*BackendConfiguration*](qiskit.providers.models.BackendConfiguration "qiskit.providers.models.BackendConfiguration")) A backend configuration object for the backend object.
* **provider** ([*qiskit.providers.Provider*](qiskit.providers.Provider "qiskit.providers.Provider")) Optionally, the provider object that this Backend comes from.
* **fields** kwargs for the values to use to override the default options.
**Raises**
**AttributeError** if input field not a valid options
In addition to the public abstract methods, subclasses should also implement the following private methods:
### \_default\_options
<Function id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy._default_options" signature="_default_options()" modifiers="classmethod">
Return the default options
This method will return a [`qiskit.providers.Options`](qiskit.providers.Options "qiskit.providers.Options") subclass object that will be used for the default options. These should be the default parameters to use for the options of the backend.
**Returns**
**A options object with**
default values set
**Return type**
[qiskit.providers.Options](qiskit.providers.Options "qiskit.providers.Options")
</Function>

**Returns**
the name of the backend.
**Return type**
str
</Function>
<span id="qiskit-providers-basicaer-statevectorsimulatorpy-properties" />
### properties
<Function id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy.properties" signature="StatevectorSimulatorPy.properties()">
Return the backend properties.
**Returns**
the configuration for the backend. If the backend does not support properties, it returns `None`.
**Return type**

</Function>
<span id="qiskit-providers-basicaer-statevectorsimulatorpy-provider" />
### provider

</Function>
<span id="qiskit-providers-basicaer-statevectorsimulatorpy-run" />
### run
<Function id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy.run" signature="StatevectorSimulatorPy.run(qobj, **backend_options)">
Run qobj asynchronously.
**Parameters**
* **qobj** ([*Qobj*](qiskit.qobj.Qobj "qiskit.qobj.Qobj")) payload of the experiment
* **backend\_options** (*dict*) backend options
**Returns**
derived from BaseJob
**Return type**
[BasicAerJob](qiskit.providers.basicaer.BasicAerJob "qiskit.providers.basicaer.BasicAerJob")
#### Additional Information:
#### backend\_options: Is a dict of options for the backend. It may contain
* “initial\_statevector”: vector\_like
The “initial\_statevector” option specifies a custom initial initial statevector for the simulator to be used instead of the all zero state. This size of this vector must be correct for the number of qubits in all experiments in the qobj.
Example:
```python
backend_options = {
"initial_statevector": np.array([1, 0, 0, 1j]) / np.sqrt(2),
}
```
</Function>
<span id="qiskit-providers-basicaer-statevectorsimulatorpy-run-experiment" />
### run\_experiment
<Function id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy.run_experiment" signature="StatevectorSimulatorPy.run_experiment(experiment)">
Run an experiment (circuit) and return a single experiment result.
**Parameters**
**experiment** (*QobjExperiment*) experiment from qobj experiments list
**Returns**
A result dictionary which looks something like:
```python
{
"name": name of this experiment (obtained from qobj.experiment header)
"seed": random seed used for simulation
"shots": number of shots used in the simulation
"data":
{
"counts": {'0x9: 5, ...},
"memory": ['0x9', '0xF', '0x1D', ..., '0x9']
},
"status": status string for the simulation
"success": boolean
"time_taken": simulation time of this single experiment
}
```
**Return type**
dict
**Raises**
[**BasicAerError**](qiskit.providers.basicaer.BasicAerError "qiskit.providers.basicaer.BasicAerError") if an error occurred.
</Function>
<span id="qiskit-providers-basicaer-statevectorsimulatorpy-set-options" />
### set\_options
<Function id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy.set_options" signature="StatevectorSimulatorPy.set_options(**fields)">
Set the options fields for the backend
This method is used to update the options of a backend. If you need to change any of the options prior to running just pass in the kwarg with the new value for the options.
**Parameters**
**fields** The fields to update the options
**Raises**
**AttributeError** If the field passed in is not part of the options
</Function>
<span id="qiskit-providers-basicaer-statevectorsimulatorpy-status" />
### status
<Function id="qiskit.providers.basicaer.StatevectorSimulatorPy.status" signature="StatevectorSimulatorPy.status()">

**Returns**
the status of the backend.
**Return type**
[BackendStatus](qiskit.providers.models.BackendStatus "qiskit.providers.models.BackendStatus")
</Function>
