qml.labs.resource_estimation.ResourceIdentity

class ResourceIdentity(*args, wires=None, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: ResourceOperator

Resource class for the Identity gate.

Parameters:

wires (Iterable[Any], optional) – wire label(s) that the identity acts on

Resources:

The Identity gate is treated as a free gate and thus it cannot be decomposed further. Requesting the resources of this gate returns an empty list.

Example

The resources for this operation are computed using:

>>> plre.ResourceIdentity.resource_decomp()
[]

num_wires

resource_keys

resource_params

Returns a dictionary containing the minimal information needed to compute the resources.

num_wires = 1
resource_keys = {}
resource_params

Returns a dictionary containing the minimal information needed to compute the resources.

Returns:

Empty dictionary. The resources of this operation don’t depend on any additional parameters.

Return type:

dict

adjoint_resource_decomp()

Returns a list representing the resources for the adjoint of the operator.

controlled_resource_decomp(...)

Returns a list representing the resources for a controlled version of the operator.

dequeue(op_to_remove[, context])

Remove the given resource operator(s) from the Operator queue.

pow_resource_decomp(pow_z)

Returns a list representing the resources for an operator raised to a power.

queue([context])

Append the operator to the Operator queue.

resource_decomp(**kwargs)

Returns a list representing the resources of the operator.

resource_rep(**kwargs)

Returns a compressed representation containing only the parameters of the Operator that are needed to compute the resources.

resource_rep_from_op()

Returns a compressed representation directly from the operator

tracking_name(*args, **kwargs)

Returns a name used to track the operator during resource estimation.

tracking_name_from_op()

Returns the tracking name built with the operator's parameters.

classmethod adjoint_resource_decomp()[source]

Returns a list representing the resources for the adjoint of the operator.

Resources:

This operation is self-adjoint, so the resources of the adjoint operation is the base operation.

Returns:

A list of GateCount objects, where each object represents a specific quantum gate and the number of times it appears in the decomposition.

Return type:

list[GateCount]

classmethod controlled_resource_decomp(ctrl_num_ctrl_wires, ctrl_num_ctrl_values)[source]

Returns a list representing the resources for a controlled version of the operator.

Parameters:
  • num_ctrl_wires (int) – the number of qubits the operation is controlled on

  • num_ctrl_values (int) – The number of control qubits, that are triggered when in the \(|0\rangle\) state.

Resources:

The Identity gate acts trivially when controlled. The resources of this operation are the original (un-controlled) operation.

Returns:

A list of GateCount objects, where each object represents a specific quantum gate and the number of times it appears in the decomposition.

Return type:

list[GateCount]

static dequeue(op_to_remove, context=<class 'pennylane.queuing.QueuingManager'>)

Remove the given resource operator(s) from the Operator queue.

classmethod pow_resource_decomp(pow_z)[source]

Returns a list representing the resources for an operator raised to a power.

Parameters:

pow_z (int) – the power that the operator is being raised to

Resources:

The Identity gate acts trivially when raised to a power. The resources of this operation are the original operation.

Returns:

A list of GateCount objects, where each object represents a specific quantum gate and the number of times it appears in the decomposition.

Return type:

list[GateCount]

queue(context=<class 'pennylane.queuing.QueuingManager'>)

Append the operator to the Operator queue.

classmethod resource_decomp(**kwargs)[source]

Returns a list representing the resources of the operator. Each object represents a quantum gate and the number of times it occurs in the decomposition.

Resources:

The Identity gate is treated as a free gate and thus it cannot be decomposed further. Requesting the resources of this gate returns an empty list.

Returns:

empty list

Return type:

list

classmethod resource_rep(**kwargs)[source]

Returns a compressed representation containing only the parameters of the Operator that are needed to compute the resources.

resource_rep_from_op()

Returns a compressed representation directly from the operator

classmethod tracking_name(*args, **kwargs)

Returns a name used to track the operator during resource estimation.

tracking_name_from_op()

Returns the tracking name built with the operator’s parameters.
