RVGate

class qiskit.circuit.library.RVGate(v_x, v_y, v_z, basis='U')

GitHub

Bases: Gate

Rotation around arbitrary rotation axis vv where v|v| is angle of rotation in radians.

Can be applied to a QuantumCircuit with the rv() method.

Circuit symbol:

     ┌─────────────────┐
q_0:RV(v_x,v_y,v_z)
     └─────────────────┘

Matrix Representation:

R(v)=eivσ=(cos(v)ivzsinc(v)(ivx+vy)sinc(v)(ivxvy)sinc(v)cos(v)+ivzsinc(v))\begin{split}\providecommand{\th}{|\vec{v}|} \providecommand{\sinc}{\text{sinc}} R(\vec{v}) = e^{-i \vec{v}\cdot\vec{\sigma}} = \begin{pmatrix} \cos\left(\th\right) -i v_z \sinc\left(\th\right) & -(i v_x + v_y) \sinc\left(\th\right) \\ -(i v_x - v_y) \sinc\left(\th\right) & \cos\left(\th\right) + i v_z \sinc\left(\th\right) \end{pmatrix}\end{split}

Create new rv single-qubit gate.
