PolynomialPauliRotations

class PolynomialPauliRotations(num_state_qubits=None, coeffs=None, basis='Y', name='poly')

Bases: FunctionalPauliRotations

A circuit implementing polynomial Pauli rotations.

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

|i\rangle |0\rangle \mapsto \cos\left(\frac{p(i)}{2}\right) |i\rangle |0\rangle + \sin\left(\frac{p(i)}{2}\right) |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 = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} 2^i q_i,

we can write

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

where $c$ are the input coefficients, coeffs.

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

Parameters

num_state_qubits (int | None) – The number of qubits representing the state.
coeffs (list[float] | None) – 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

ancillas

Returns a list of ancilla bits in the order that the registers were added.

basis

The kind of Pauli rotation to be used.

Set the basis to ‘X’, ‘Y’ or ‘Z’ for controlled-X, -Y, or -Z rotations respectively.

Returns

The kind of Pauli rotation used in controlled rotation.

calibrations

Return calibration dictionary.

The custom pulse definition of a given gate is of the form {'gate_name': {(qubits, params): schedule}}

clbits

Returns a list of classical bits in the order that the registers were added.

coeffs

The coefficients of the polynomial.

coeffs[i] is the coefficient of the i-th power of the function input $x$ , that means that the rotation angles are based on the coefficients value, following the formula

c_j x^j , j=0, ..., d

where $d$ is the degree of the polynomial $p(x)$ and $c$ are the coefficients coeffs.

Returns

The coefficients of the polynomial.

data

degree

Return the degree of the polynomial, equals to the number of coefficients minus 1.

Returns

The degree of the polynomial. If the coefficients have not been set, return 0.

extension_lib

Default value: 'include "qelib1.inc";'

global_phase

Return the global phase of the circuit in radians.

header

Default value: 'OPENQASM 2.0;'

instances

Default value: 126

layout

Return any associated layout information anout the circuit

This attribute contains an optional TranspileLayout object. This is typically set on the output from transpile() or PassManager.run() to retain information about the permutations caused on the input circuit by transpilation.

There are two types of permutations caused by the transpile() function, an initial layout which permutes the qubits based on the selected physical qubits on the Target, and a final layout which is an output permutation caused by SwapGates inserted during routing.

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.

num_ancilla_qubits

Deprecated. Use num_ancillas instead.

Deprecated since version 0.16.0

The property qiskit.circuit.library.arithmetic.polynomial_pauli_rotations.PolynomialPauliRotations.num_ancilla_qubits is deprecated as of qiskit-terra 0.16.0. It will be removed no earlier than 3 months after the release date. Instead, use the property num_ancillas.

num_ancillas

num_clbits

Return number of classical bits.

num_parameters

num_qubits

Return number of qubits.

num_state_qubits

The number of state qubits representing the state $|x\rangle$ .

Returns

This attribute is enabled once one of scheduling analysis passes runs on the quantum circuit.

Returns

List of integers representing instruction start times. The index corresponds to the index of instruction in QuantumCircuit.data.

Raises

AttributeError – When circuit is not scheduled.

parameters
