diag_gate

ZZFeatureMap.diag_gate(diag, qubit)

Deprecated version of QuantumCircuit.diagonal.

diagonal

ZZFeatureMap.diagonal(diag, qubit)

Attach a diagonal gate to a circuit.

The decomposition is based on Theorem 7 given in “Synthesis of Quantum Logic Circuits” by Shende et al. (https://arxiv.org/pdf/quant-ph/0406176.pdf).

Parameters

  • diag (list) – list of the 2^k diagonal entries (for a diagonal gate on k qubits). Must contain at least two entries
  • qubit (QuantumRegister|list) – list of k qubits the diagonal is acting on (the order of the qubits specifies the computational basis in which the diagonal gate is provided: the first element in diag acts on the state where all the qubits in q are in the state 0, the second entry acts on the state where all the qubits q[1],…,q[k-1] are in the state zero and q[0] is in the state 1, and so on)

Returns

the diagonal gate which was attached to the circuit.

Return type

QuantumCircuit

Raises

QiskitError – if the list of the diagonal entries or the qubit list is in bad format; if the number of diagonal entries is not 2^k, where k denotes the number of qubits

draw

ZZFeatureMap.draw(output=None, scale=0.7, filename=None, style=None, interactive=False, line_length=None, plot_barriers=True, reverse_bits=False, justify=None, vertical_compression='medium', idle_wires=True, with_layout=True, fold=None, ax=None, initial_state=False, cregbundle=False)

Draw the quantum circuit.

text: ASCII art TextDrawing that can be printed in the console.

latex: high-quality images compiled via LaTeX.

latex_source: raw uncompiled LaTeX output.

matplotlib: images with color rendered purely in Python.

Parameters

  • output (str) – Select the output method to use for drawing the circuit. Valid choices are text, latex, latex_source, or mpl. By default the ‘text’ drawer is used unless a user config file has an alternative backend set as the default. If the output kwarg is set, that backend will always be used over the default in a user config file.
  • scale (float) – scale of image to draw (shrink if < 1)
  • filename (str) – file path to save image to
  • style (dict or str) – dictionary of style or file name of style file. This option is only used by the mpl output type. If a str is passed in that is the path to a json file which contains a dictionary of style, then that will be opened, parsed, and used as the input dict. See: Style Dict Doc for more information on the contents.
  • interactive (bool) – when set true show the circuit in a new window (for mpl this depends on the matplotlib backend being used supporting this). Note when used with either the text or the latex_source output type this has no effect and will be silently ignored.
  • line_length (int) – Deprecated; see fold which supersedes this option. Sets the length of the lines generated by text output type. This is useful when the drawing does not fit in the console. If None (default), it will try to guess the console width using shutil.get_terminal_size(). However, if you’re running in jupyter, the default line length is set to 80 characters. If you don’t want pagination at all, set line_length=-1.
  • reverse_bits (bool) – When set to True, reverse the bit order inside registers for the output visualization.
  • plot_barriers (bool) – Enable/disable drawing barriers in the output circuit. Defaults to True.
  • justify (string) – Options are left, right or none. If anything else is supplied it defaults to left justified. It refers to where gates should be placed in the output circuit if there is an option. none results in each gate being placed in its own column.
  • vertical_compression (string) – high, medium or low. It merges the lines generated by the text output so the drawing will take less vertical room. Default is medium. Only used by the text output, will be silently ignored otherwise.
  • idle_wires (bool) – Include idle wires (wires with no circuit elements) in output visualization. Default is True.
  • with_layout (bool) – Include layout information, with labels on the physical layout. Default is True.
  • fold (int) – Sets pagination. It can be disabled using -1. In text, sets the length of the lines. This is useful when the drawing does not fit in the console. If None (default), it will try to guess the console width using shutil. get_terminal_size(). However, if running in jupyter, the default line length is set to 80 characters. In mpl is the number of (visual) layers before folding. Default is 25.
  • ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes) – An optional Axes object to be used for the visualization output. If none is specified, a new matplotlib Figure will be created and used. Additionally, if specified, there will be no returned Figure since it is redundant. This is only used when the output kwarg is set to use the mpl backend. It will be silently ignored with all other outputs.
  • initial_state (bool) – Optional. Adds |0> in the beginning of the wire. Only used by the text, latex and latex_source outputs. Default: False.
  • cregbundle (bool) – Optional. If set True bundle classical registers. Only used by the text output. Default: False.

Returns

PIL.Image or matplotlib.figure or str or TextDrawing:

  • PIL.Image (output=’latex’)

    an in-memory representation of the image of the circuit diagram.

  • matplotlib.figure.Figure (output=’mpl’)

    a matplotlib figure object for the circuit diagram.

  • str (output=’latex_source’)

    The LaTeX source code for visualizing the circuit diagram.

  • TextDrawing (output=’text’)

    A drawing that can be printed as ASCII art.

Raises

  • VisualizationError – when an invalid output method is selected
  • ImportError – when the output methods require non-installed libraries

Style Dict Details

The style dict kwarg contains numerous options that define the style of the output circuit visualization. The style dict is only used by the mpl output. The options available in the style dict are defined below:

Parameters

  • gatetextcolor (str) – The color code to use for gate text. Defaults to ‘#000000’

  • gatefacecolor (str) – The color code to use for gates. Defaults to ‘#ffffff’

  • barrierfacecolor (str) – The color code to use for barriers. Defaults to ‘#bdbdbd’

  • subfontsize (int) – The font size to use for subtext. Defaults to 8.

  • displaytext (dict) –

        'u0': 'U_0',
        'u1': 'U_1',
        'u2': 'U_2',

        'ry': 'R_y',
        'rz': 'R_z',
        'reset': '\left|0\right\rangle'
    }

    You must specify all the necessary values if using this. There is no provision for passing an incomplete dict in.
