class ResourcePhaseGradient(num_wires, wires=None)[source]

Bases: ResourceOperator

Resource class for the PhaseGradient gate.

This operation prepares the phase gradient state \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2^b}} \cdot \sum_{k=0}^{2^b - 1} e^{-i2\pi \frac{k}{2^b}}\ket{k}\).

Parameters:
  • num_wires (int) – the number of qubits to prepare in the phase gradient state

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

Resources:

The phase gradient state is defined as an equal superposition of phaseshifts where each shift is progressively more precise. This is achieved by applying Hadamard gates to each qubit and then applying RZ-rotations to each qubit with progressively smaller rotation angle. The first three rotations can be compiled to a Z-gate, S-gate and a T-gate.

Example

The resources for this operation are computed using:

>>> phase_grad = plre.ResourcePhaseGradient(num_wires=5)
>>> gate_set={"Z", "S", "T", "RZ", "Hadamard"}
>>> print(plre.estimate(phase_grad, gate_set))
--- Resources: ---
Total qubits: 5
Total gates : 10
Qubit breakdown:
 clean qubits: 0, dirty qubits: 0, algorithmic qubits: 5
Gate breakdown:

classmethod resource_decomp(num_wires, **kwargs)[source]

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

Parameters:

num_wires (int) – the number of qubits to prepare in the phase gradient state

Resources:

The resources are obtained by construction. The phase gradient state is defined as an equal superposition of phaseshifts where each shift is progressively more precise.
