qml.labs.resource_estimation.ResourcePauliRot

class ResourcePauliRot(pauli_string, precision=None, wires=None)[source]

Bases: ResourceOperator

Resource class for the PauliRot gate.

Parameters:
  • pauli_string (str) – a string describing the pauli operators that define the rotation

  • precision (float, optional) – error threshold for clifford plus T decomposition of this operation

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

Resources:

When the pauli_string is a single Pauli operator (X, Y, Z, Identity) the cost is the associated single qubit rotation (RX, RY, RZ, GlobalPhase).

The resources come from Section VIII (Figures 3 & 4) of The Bravyi-Kitaev transformation for quantum computation of electronic structure paper, in combination with the following identity:

\[\begin{split}\begin{align} \hat{X} &= \hat{H} \cdot \hat{Z} \cdot \hat{H}, \\ \hat{Y} &= \hat{S} \cdot \hat{H} \cdot \hat{Z} \cdot \hat{H} \cdot \hat{S}^{\dagger}. \end{align}\end{split}\]

Specifically, the resources are given by one ResourceRZ gate and a cascade of \(2 * (n - 1)\) ResourceCNOT gates where \(n\) is the number of qubits the gate acts on. Additionally, for each X gate in the Pauli word we conjugate by a pair of ResourceHadamard gates, and for each Y gate in the Pauli word we conjugate by a pair of ResourceHadamard and a pair of ResourceS gates.

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

Parameters:
  • pauli_string (str) – a string describing the pauli operators that define the rotation

  • precision (float, optional) – error threshold for clifford plus T decomposition of this operation

Resources:

The adjoint of this operator just changes the sign of the phase, thus the resources of the adjoint operation results in 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]

classmethod controlled_resource_decomp(ctrl_num_ctrl_wires, ctrl_num_ctrl_values, pauli_string, precision=None, **kwargs)[source]

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

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

  • ctrl_num_ctrl_values (int) – the number of control qubits, that are controlled when in the \(|0\rangle\) state

  • pauli_string (str) – a string describing the pauli operators that define the rotation

  • precision (float, optional) – error threshold for clifford plus T decomposition of this operation

Resources:

When the pauli_string is a single Pauli operator (X, Y, Z, Identity) the cost is the associated controlled single qubit rotation gate: (ResourceCRX, ResourceCRY, ResourceCRZ, controlled-ResourceGlobalPhase).

The resources are derived from the following identity. If an operation \(\hat{A}\) can be expressed as \(\hat{A} \ = \ \hat{U} \cdot \hat{B} \cdot \hat{U}^{\dagger}\) then the controlled operation \(C\hat{A}\) can be expressed as:

\[C\hat{A} \ = \ \hat{U} \cdot C\hat{B} \cdot \hat{U}^{\dagger}\]

Specifically, the resources are one multi-controlled RZ-gate and a cascade of \(2 * (n - 1)\) ResourceCNOT gates where \(n\) is the number of qubits the gate acts on. Additionally, for each X gate in the Pauli word we conjugate by a pair of ResourceHadamard gates, and for each Y gate in the Pauli word we conjugate by a pair of ResourceHadamard and a pair of ResourceS gates.
