UCPauliRotGate
class UCPauliRotGate(angle_list, rot_axis)
Bases: qiskit.circuit.gate.Gate
Uniformly controlled rotations (also called multiplexed rotations). The decomposition is based on ‘Synthesis of Quantum Logic Circuits’ by Shende et al. (https://arxiv.org/pdf/quant-ph/0406176.pdf)
Input: angle_list = list of (real) rotation angles [a_0,…,a_{2^k-1}]. Must have at least one entry.
rot_axis = rotation axis for the single qubit rotations
(currently, ‘X’, ‘Y’ and ‘Z’ are supported)
Create a new gate.
Parameters
- name – The Qobj name of the gate.
- num_qubits – The number of qubits the gate acts on.
- params – A list of parameters.
- label – An optional label for the gate.
Methods
add_decomposition
UCPauliRotGate.add_decomposition(decomposition)
Add a decomposition of the instruction to the SessionEquivalenceLibrary.
assemble
UCPauliRotGate.assemble()
Assemble a QasmQobjInstruction
broadcast_arguments
UCPauliRotGate.broadcast_arguments(qargs, cargs)
Validation and handling of the arguments and its relationship.
For example, cx([q[0],q[1]], q[2]) means cx(q[0], q[2]); cx(q[1], q[2]). This method yields the arguments in the right grouping. In the given example:
in: [[q[0],q[1]], q[2]],[]
outs: [q[0], q[2]], []
[q[1], q[2]], []The general broadcasting rules are:
If len(qargs) == 1:
[q[0], q[1]] -> [q[0]],[q[1]]If len(qargs) == 2:
[[q[0], q[1]], [r[0], r[1]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[1]] [[q[0]], [r[0], r[1]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[0], r[1]] [[q[0], q[1]], [r[0]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[0]]If len(qargs) >= 3:
[q[0], q[1]], [r[0], r[1]], ...] -> [q[0], r[0], ...], [q[1], r[1], ...]
Parameters
- qargs (
List) – List of quantum bit arguments. - cargs (
List) – List of classical bit arguments.
Return type
Tuple[List, List]
Returns
A tuple with single arguments.
Raises
CircuitError – If the input is not valid. For example, the number of arguments does not match the gate expectation.
c_if
UCPauliRotGate.c_if(classical, val)
Set a classical equality condition on this instruction between the register or cbit classical and value val.
This is a setter method, not an additive one. Calling this multiple times will silently override any previously set condition; it does not stack.
control
UCPauliRotGate.control(num_ctrl_qubits=1, label=None, ctrl_state=None)
Return controlled version of gate. See ControlledGate for usage.
Parameters
- num_ctrl_qubits (
int) – number of controls to add to gate (default=1) - label (
Optional[str]) – optional gate label - ctrl_state (
Union[str,int,None]) – The control state in decimal or as a bitstring (e.g. ‘111’). If None, use 2**num_ctrl_qubits-1.
Returns
Controlled version of gate. This default algorithm uses num_ctrl_qubits-1 ancillae qubits so returns a gate of size num_qubits + 2*num_ctrl_qubits - 1.
Return type
Raises
QiskitError – unrecognized mode or invalid ctrl_state
copy
UCPauliRotGate.copy(name=None)
Copy of the instruction.
Parameters
name (str) – name to be given to the copied circuit, if None then the name stays the same.
Returns
a copy of the current instruction, with the name
updated if it was provided
Return type
inverse
UCPauliRotGate.inverse()
Invert this instruction.
If the instruction is composite (i.e. has a definition), then its definition will be recursively inverted.
Special instructions inheriting from Instruction can implement their own inverse (e.g. T and Tdg, Barrier, etc.)
Returns
a fresh instruction for the inverse
Return type
Raises
CircuitError – if the instruction is not composite and an inverse has not been implemented for it.
is_parameterized
UCPauliRotGate.is_parameterized()
Return True .IFF. instruction is parameterized else False
power
UCPauliRotGate.power(exponent)
Creates a unitary gate as gate^exponent.
Parameters
exponent (float) – Gate^exponent
Returns
To which to_matrix is self.to_matrix^exponent.
Return type
Raises
CircuitError – If Gate is not unitary
qasm
UCPauliRotGate.qasm()
Return a default OpenQASM string for the instruction.
Derived instructions may override this to print in a different format (e.g. measure q[0] -> c[0];).
repeat
UCPauliRotGate.repeat(n)
Creates an instruction with gate repeated n amount of times.
Parameters
n (int) – Number of times to repeat the instruction
Returns
Containing the definition.
Return type
Raises
CircuitError – If n < 1.
reverse_ops
UCPauliRotGate.reverse_ops()
For a composite instruction, reverse the order of sub-instructions.
This is done by recursively reversing all sub-instructions. It does not invert any gate.
Returns
a new instruction with
sub-instructions reversed.
Return type
soft_compare
UCPauliRotGate.soft_compare(other)
Soft comparison between gates. Their names, number of qubits, and classical bit numbers must match. The number of parameters must match. Each parameter is compared. If one is a ParameterExpression then it is not taken into account.
Parameters
other (instruction) – other instruction.
Returns
are self and other equal up to parameter expressions.
Return type
bool
to_matrix
UCPauliRotGate.to_matrix()
Return a Numpy.array for the gate unitary matrix.
Returns
if the Gate subclass has a matrix definition.
Return type
np.ndarray
Raises
CircuitError – If a Gate subclass does not implement this method an exception will be raised when this base class method is called.
validate_parameter
UCPauliRotGate.validate_parameter(parameter)
Gate parameters should be int, float, or ParameterExpression
Attributes

decompositions
Get the decompositions of the instruction from the SessionEquivalenceLibrary.
definition
Return definition in terms of other basic gates.
duration
Get the duration.
label
Return instruction label
Return type
str
name
