class ResourceControlledSequence(base, num_control_wires, wires=None)[source]

Bases: ResourceOperator

Resource class for the ControlledSequence gate.

This operator represents a sequence of controlled gates, one for each control wire, with the base operator (base) raised to decreasing powers of 2.

Parameters:
  • base (ResourceOperator) – The operator that we will be applying controlled powers of.

  • num_control_wires (int) – the number of controlled wires to run the sequence over

  • wires (Sequence[int], optional) – the wires the operation acts on

Resources:

The resources are obtained as a direct result of the definition of the operator:

0: ──╭●───────────────┤
1: ──│────╭●──────────┤
2: ──│────│────╭●─────┤
t: ──╰U⁴──╰U²──╰U¹────┤

Example

The resources for this operation are computed using:

>>> ctrl_seq = plre.ResourceControlledSequence(
...     base = plre.ResourceRX(),
...     num_control_wires = 3,
... )
>>> gate_set={"CRX"}
>>> print(plre.estimate(ctrl_seq, gate_set))
