class LinearSystemMatrix(num_state_qubits, tolerance, evolution_time, name='ls_matrix')
Bases: qiskit.circuit.library.blueprintcircuit.BlueprintCircuit
, abc.ABC
The deprecated base class for linear system matrices.
Parameters
- num_state_qubits (
int
) – the number of qubits where the unitary acts. - tolerance (
float
) – the accuracy desired for the approximation - evolution_time (
float
) – the time of the Hamiltonian simulation - name (
str
) – The name of the object.
Methods
add_bits
LinearSystemMatrix.add_bits(bits)
Add Bits to the circuit.
Return type
None
add_calibration
LinearSystemMatrix.add_calibration(gate, qubits, schedule, params=None)
Register a low-level, custom pulse definition for the given gate.
Parameters
- gate (Union[Gate, str]) – Gate information.
- qubits (Union[int, Tuple[int]]) – List of qubits to be measured.
- schedule (Schedule) – Schedule information.
- params (Optional[List[Union[float, Parameter]]]) – A list of parameters.
Raises
Exception – if the gate is of type string and params is None.
Return type
None
add_register
LinearSystemMatrix.add_register(*regs)
Add registers.
Return type
None
append
LinearSystemMatrix.append(instruction, qargs=None, cargs=None)
Append one or more instructions to the end of the circuit, modifying the circuit in place.
The qargs
and cargs
will be expanded and broadcast according to the rules of the given Instruction
, and any non-Bit
specifiers (such as integer indices) will be resolved into the relevant instances.
If a CircuitInstruction
is given, it will be unwrapped, verified in the context of this circuit, and a new object will be appended to the circuit. In this case, you may not pass qargs
or cargs
separately.
Parameters
- instruction –
Instruction
instance to append, or aCircuitInstruction
with all its context. - qargs – specifiers of the
Qubit
s to attach instruction to. - cargs – specifiers of the
Clbit
s to attach instruction to.
Returns
a handle to the CircuitInstruction
s that were actually added to the circuit.
Return type
Raises
CircuitError – if the operation passed is not an instance of Instruction
.
assign_parameters
LinearSystemMatrix.assign_parameters(parameters, inplace=False)
Assign parameters to new parameters or values.
If parameters
is passed as a dictionary, the keys must be Parameter
instances in the current circuit. The values of the dictionary can either be numeric values or new parameter objects.
If parameters
is passed as a list or array, the elements are assigned to the current parameters in the order of parameters
which is sorted alphabetically (while respecting the ordering in ParameterVector
objects).
The values can be assigned to the current circuit object or to a copy of it.
Parameters
- parameters (
Union
[Mapping
[Parameter
,Union
[ParameterExpression
,float
]],Sequence
[Union
[ParameterExpression
,float
]]]) – Either a dictionary or iterable specifying the new parameter values. - inplace (
bool
) – If False, a copy of the circuit with the bound parameters is returned. If True the circuit instance itself is modified.
Raises
- CircuitError – If parameters is a dict and contains parameters not present in the circuit.
- ValueError – If parameters is a list/array and the length mismatches the number of free parameters in the circuit.
Return type
Optional
[QuantumCircuit]
Returns
A copy of the circuit with bound parameters, if inplace
is False, otherwise None.

barrier
LinearSystemMatrix.barrier(*qargs, label=None)
Apply Barrier
. If qargs is empty, applies to all qubits in the circuit.
Parameters
- qargs (QubitSpecifier) – Specification for one or more qubit arguments.
- label (str) – The string label of the barrier.
Returns
handle to the added instructions.
Return type
bind_parameters
LinearSystemMatrix.bind_parameters(values)
Assign numeric parameters to values yielding a new circuit.
If the values are given as list or array they are bound to the circuit in the order of parameters
(see the docstring for more details).
To assign new Parameter objects or bind the values in-place, without yielding a new circuit, use the assign_parameters()
method.
Parameters
values (Union
[Mapping
[Parameter
, float
], Sequence
[float
]]) – {parameter: value, ...}
or [value1, value2, ...]
Raises
- CircuitError – If values is a dict and contains parameters not present in the circuit.
- TypeError – If values contains a ParameterExpression.
Return type
Returns
Copy of self with assignment substitution.
break_loop
LinearSystemMatrix.break_loop()
Apply BreakLoopOp
.
If you are using the context-manager “builder” forms of if_test()
, for_loop()
or while_loop()
, you can only call this method if you are within a loop context, because otherwise the “resource width” of the operation cannot be determined. This would quickly lead to invalid circuits, and so if you are trying to construct a reusable loop body (without the context managers), you must also use the non-context-manager form of if_test()
and if_else()
. Take care that the BreakLoopOp
instruction must span all the resources of its containing loop, not just the immediate scope.
Return type
Returns
A handle to the instruction created.
Raises
CircuitError – if this method was called within a builder context, but not contained within a loop.
cast
static LinearSystemMatrix.cast(value, type_)
Best effort to cast value to type. Otherwise, returns the value.
Return type

(S
), TypeVar

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
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
LinearSystemMatrix.draw(*args, **kwargs)
Draw the quantum circuit. Use the output parameter to choose the drawing format:
text: ASCII art TextDrawing that can be printed in the console.
mpl: images with color rendered purely in Python using matplotlib.
latex: high-quality images compiled via latex.
latex_source: raw uncompiled latex output.
Parameters
- output (str) – select the output method to use for drawing the circuit. Valid choices are
text
,mpl
,latex
,latex_source
. By default the text drawer is used unless the user config file (usually~/.qiskit/settings.conf
) has an alternative backend set as the default. For example,circuit_drawer = latex
. If the output kwarg is set, that backend will always be used over the default in the user config file. - scale (float) – scale of image to draw (shrink if < 1.0). Only used by the mpl, latex and latex_source outputs. Defaults to 1.0.
- filename (str) – file path to save image to. Defaults to None.
- style (dict or str) – dictionary of style or file name of style json file. This option is only used by the mpl or latex output type. If style is a str, it is used as the path to a json file which contains a style dict. The file will be opened, parsed, and then any style elements in the dict will replace the default values in the input dict. A file to be loaded must end in
.json
, but the name entered here can omit.json
. For example,style='iqx.json'
orstyle='iqx'
. If style is a dict and the'name'
key is set, that name will be used to load a json file, followed by loading the other items in the style dict. For example,style={'name': 'iqx'}
. If style is not a str and name is not a key in the style dict, then the default value from the user config file (usually~/.qiskit/settings.conf
) will be used, for example,circuit_mpl_style = iqx
. If none of these are set, the default style will be used. The search path for style json files can be specified in the user config, for example,circuit_mpl_style_path = /home/user/styles:/home/user
. See:DefaultStyle
for more information on the contents. - interactive (bool) – when set to 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. Defaults to False.
- reverse_bits (bool) – when set to True, reverse the bit order inside registers for the output visualization. Defaults to False unless the user config file (usually
~/.qiskit/settings.conf
) has an alternative value set. For example,circuit_reverse_bits = True
. - plot_barriers (bool) – enable/disable drawing barriers in the output circuit. Defaults to True.
- justify (string) – options are
left
,right
ornone
. 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
orlow
. It merges the lines generated by the text output so the drawing will take less vertical room. Default ismedium
. 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, it is the number of (visual) layers before folding. Default is 25. - ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes) – Only used by the mpl backend. 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.
- initial_state (bool) – Optional. Adds
|0>
in the beginning of the wire. Default is False. - cregbundle (bool) – Optional. If set True, bundle classical registers. Default is True, except for when
output
is set to"text"
. - wire_order (list) – Optional. A list of integers used to reorder the display of the bits. The list must have an entry for every bit with the bits in the range 0 to (num_qubits + num_clbits).
Returns
TextDrawing
or matplotlib.figure
or PIL.Image
or str
:
-
TextDrawing (output=’text’)
A drawing that can be printed as ascii art.
-
matplotlib.figure.Figure (output=’mpl’)
A matplotlib figure object for the circuit diagram.
-
PIL.Image (output=’latex’)
An in-memory representation of the image of the circuit diagram.
-
str (output=’latex_source’)

Raises
- VisualizationError – when an invalid output method is selected
- ImportError – when the output methods requires non-installed libraries.

)
contains the index at which the Bit
can be found (in either qubits
, clbits
, depending on its type). The second element (registers

for_loop
LinearSystemMatrix.for_loop(indexset, loop_parameter=None, body=None, qubits=None, clbits=None, *, label=None)
Create a for
loop on this circuit.
There are two forms for calling this function. If called with all its arguments (with the possible exception of label
), it will create a ForLoopOp
with the given body
. If body
(and qubits
and clbits
) are not passed, then this acts as a context manager, which, when entered, provides a loop variable (unless one is given, in which case it will be reused) and will automatically build a ForLoopOp
when the scope finishes. In this form, you do not need to keep track of the qubits or clbits you are using, because the scope will handle it for you.
For example:
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
qc = QuantumCircuit(2, 1)
with qc.for_loop(range(5)) as i:
qc.h(0)
qc.cx(0, 1)
qc.measure(0, 0)
qc.break_loop().c_if(0, True)
Parameters
-
indexset (Iterable[int]) – A collection of integers to loop over. Always necessary.
-
loop_parameter (Optional[Parameter]) –
The parameter used within
body
to which the values fromindexset
will be assigned. In the context-manager form, if this argument is not supplied, then a loop parameter will be allocated for you and returned as the value of thewith
statement. This will only be bound into the circuit if it is used within the body.If this argument is
None
in the manual form of this method,body
will be repeated once for each of the items inindexset
but their values will be ignored. -
body (Optional[QuantumCircuit]) – The loop body to be repeatedly executed. Omit this to use the context-manager mode.
-
qubits (Optional[Sequence[QubitSpecifier]]) – The circuit qubits over which the loop body should be run. Omit this to use the context-manager mode.
-
clbits (Optional[Sequence[ClbitSpecifier]]) – The circuit clbits over which the loop body should be run. Omit this to use the context-manager mode.
-
label (Optional[str]) – The string label of the instruction in the circuit.
Returns
depending on the call signature, either a context manager for creating the for loop (it will automatically be added to the circuit at the end of the block), or an InstructionSet
handle to the appended loop operation.
Return type
InstructionSet or ForLoopContext
Raises
CircuitError – if an incorrect calling convention is used.

Parameters
- condition (
Union
[Tuple
[ClassicalRegister
,int
],Tuple
[Clbit
,int
],Tuple
[Clbit
,bool
]]) – A condition to be evaluated at circuit runtime which, if true, will trigger the evaluation oftrue_body
. Can be specified as either a tuple of aClassicalRegister
to be tested for equality with a givenint
, or as a tuple of aClbit
to be compared to either abool
or anint
. - true_body (QuantumCircuit) – The circuit body to be run if
condition
is true. - false_body (QuantumCircuit) – The circuit to be run if
condition
is false. - qubits (

,slice
,Sequence
[Union
[Clbit
,int
]]]]) – The circuit clbits over which the if/else should be run. - label (

if_test
LinearSystemMatrix.if_test(condition, true_body=None, qubits=None, clbits=None, *, label=None)
Create an if
statement on this circuit.
There are two forms for calling this function. If called with all its arguments (with the possible exception of label
), it will create a IfElseOp
with the given true_body
, and there will be no branch for the false
condition (see also the if_else()
method). However, if true_body
(and qubits
and clbits
) are not passed, then this acts as a context manager, which can be used to build if
statements. The return value of the with
statement is a chainable context manager, which can be used to create subsequent else
blocks. In this form, you do not need to keep track of the qubits or clbits you are using, because the scope will handle it for you.
For example:
from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Qubit, Clbit
bits = [Qubit(), Qubit(), Qubit(), Clbit(), Clbit()]
qc = QuantumCircuit(bits)
qc.h(0)
qc.cx(0, 1)
qc.measure(0, 0)
qc.h(0)
qc.cx(0, 1)
qc.measure(0, 1)
with qc.if_test((bits[3], 0)) as else_:
qc.x(2)
with else_:
qc.h(2)
qc.z(2)
Parameters
- condition (Tuple[Union[ClassicalRegister, Clbit], int]) – A condition to be evaluated at circuit runtime which, if true, will trigger the evaluation of
true_body
. Can be specified as either a tuple of aClassicalRegister
to be tested for equality with a givenint
, or as a tuple of aClbit
to be compared to either abool
or anint
. - true_body (Optional[QuantumCircuit]) – The circuit body to be run if
condition
is true. - qubits (Optional[Sequence[QubitSpecifier]]) – The circuit qubits over which the if/else should be run.
- clbits (Optional[Sequence[ClbitSpecifier]]) – The circuit clbits over which the if/else should be run.
- label (Optional[str]) – The string label of the instruction in the circuit.

depending on the call signature, either a context manager for creating the if
block (it will automatically be added to the circuit at the end of the block), or an InstructionSet
handle to the appended conditional operation.
Return type
InstructionSet or IfContext
Raises
- CircuitError – If the provided condition references Clbits outside the enclosing circuit.
- CircuitError – if an incorrect calling convention is used.
Returns
A handle to the instruction created.

while_loop
LinearSystemMatrix.while_loop(condition, body=None, qubits=None, clbits=None, *, label=None)
Create a while
loop on this circuit.
There are two forms for calling this function. If called with all its arguments (with the possible exception of label
), it will create a WhileLoopOp
with the given body
. If body
(and qubits
and clbits
) are not passed, then this acts as a context manager, which will automatically build a WhileLoopOp
when the scope finishes. In this form, you do not need to keep track of the qubits or clbits you are using, because the scope will handle it for you.
Example usage:
from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Clbit, Qubit
bits = [Qubit(), Qubit(), Clbit()]
qc = QuantumCircuit(bits)
with qc.while_loop((bits[2], 0)):
qc.h(0)

qc.measure(0, 0)
Parameters
- condition (Tuple[Union[ClassicalRegister, Clbit], int]) – An equality condition to be checked prior to executing
body
. The left-hand side of the condition must be aClassicalRegister

, and the right-hand side must be an integer or boolean. - body (Optional[QuantumCircuit]) – The loop body to be repeatedly executed. Omit this to use the context-manager mode.
- qubits (Optional[Sequence[Qubit]]) – The circuit qubits over which the loop body should be run. Omit this to use the context-manager mode.
- clbits (Optional[Sequence[Clbit]]) – The circuit clbits over which the loop body should be run. Omit this to use the context-manager mode.
- label (Optional[str]) – The string label of the instruction in the circuit.
Returns
If used in context-manager mode, then this should be used as a with
resource, which will infer the block content and operands on exit. If the full form is used, then this returns a handle to the instructions created.
