Bases: qiskit.circuit.library.arithmetic.functional_pauli_rotations.FunctionalPauliRotations

A circuit implementing polynomial Pauli rotations.

For a polynomial :math`p(x)`, a basis state i|i\rangle and a target qubit 0|0\rangle this operator acts as:

i0cos(p(i))i0+sin(p(i))i1|i\rangle |0\rangle \mapsto \cos(p(i)) |i\rangle |0\rangle + \sin(p(i)) |i\rangle |1\rangle

Let n be the number of qubits representing the state, d the degree of p(x) and q_i the qubits, where q_0 is the least significant qubit. Then for

x=i=0n12iqi,x = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} 2^i q_i,

we can write

p(x)=j=0j=dcjxjp(x) = \sum_{j=0}^{j=d} c_j x_j

where cc are the input coefficients, coeffs.

Prepare an approximation to a state with amplitudes specified by a polynomial.

Parameters

  • num_state_qubits (Optional[int]) – The number of qubits representing the state.
  • coeffs (Optional[List[float]]) – The coefficients of the polynomial. coeffs[i] is the coefficient of the i-th power of x. Defaults to linear: [0, 1].
  • basis (str) – The type of Pauli rotation (‘X’, ‘Y’, ‘Z’).
  • name (str) – The name of the circuit.

Attributes

metadata

The user provided metadata associated with the circuit

The metadata for the circuit is a user provided dict of metadata for the circuit. It will not be used to influence the execution or operation of the circuit, but it is expected to be passed between all transforms of the circuit (ie transpilation) and that providers will associate any circuit metadata with the results it returns from execution of that circuit.

Return type
