Bases: HighLevelSynthesisPlugin

Synthesis plugin for a multi-controlled X gate based on the paper by Maslov (2016).

See [1] for details.

This plugin name is :mcx.n_clean_m15 which can be used as the key on an HLSConfig object to use this method with HighLevelSynthesis.

For a multi-controlled X gate with $k\ge 3$ control qubits this synthesis method requires $k - 2$ additional clean auxiliary qubits. The synthesized circuit consists of $2 * k - 1$ qubits and at most $6 * k - 6$ CX gates.

The plugin supports the following plugin-specific options:

• num_clean_ancillas: The number of clean auxiliary qubits available.
