qml.estimator.ops.T¶
- class T(wires=None)[source]
Bases:
ResourceOperator
Resource class for the T-gate.
- Parameters:
wires (Sequence[int] | int | None) – the wire the operation acts on
- Resources:
The
T
gate is treated as a fundamental gate and thus it cannot be decomposed further. Requesting the resources of this gate raises aResourcesUndefinedError
error.

Methods
adjoint_resource_decomp
([target_resource_params])Returns a list representing the resources for the adjoint of the operator.
controlled_resource_decomp
(num_ctrl_wires, ...)Returns a list representing the resources for a controlled version of the operator.
pow_resource_decomp
(pow_z[, ...])Returns a list representing the resources for an operator raised to a power.
Returns a list representing the resources of the operator.
Returns a compressed representation containing only the parameters of the operator that are needed to compute the resources.
- classmethod adjoint_resource_decomp(target_resource_params=None)[source]¶
Returns a list representing the resources for the adjoint of the operator.
- Parameters:
target_resource_params (dict | None) – A dictionary containing the resource parameters of the target operator.
- Resources:
The adjoint of the T-gate is equivalent to the T-gate raised to the 7th power. The resources are defined as one Z-gate (\(Z = T^{4}\)), one S-gate (\(S = T^{2}\)) and one T-gate.
- 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(num_ctrl_wires, num_zero_ctrl, target_resource_params=None)[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_zero_ctrl (int) – the number of control qubits, that are controlled when in the \(|0\rangle\) state
target_resource_params (dict | None) – A dictionary containing the resource parameters of the target operator.
- Resources:
The T-gate is equivalent to the PhaseShift gate for some fixed phase. Given a single control wire, the cost is therefore a single instance of
ControlledPhaseShift
. Two additionalX
gates are used to flip the control qubit if it is zero-controlled.In the case where multiple controlled wires are provided, we can collapse the control wires by introducing one auxiliary qubit in a zeroed state, which is reset at the end. In this case the cost increases by two additional
MultiControlledX
gates, as described in (Lemma 7.11) Barenco et al. arXiv:quant-ph/9503016.
- 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 pow_resource_decomp(pow_z, target_resource_params=None)[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
target_resource_params (dict | None) – A dictionary containing the resource parameters of the target operator.
- Resources:
The
T
gate, when raised to a power which is a multiple of eight, produces identity. Consequently, for any integer power z, the effective quantum operation \(T^{z}\) is equivalent to \(T^{z \pmod 8}\).The decomposition for \(T^{z}\), where \(z \pmod 8\) is denoted as z’, is as follows:
If z’ = 0: The operation is equivalent to the Identity gate (\(I\)).
If z’ = 1: The operation is equivalent to the T-gate (\(T\)).
If z’ = 2: The operation is equivalent to the S-gate (\(S\)).
If z’ = 3: The operation is equivalent to a composition of an S-gate and a T-gate (\(S \cdot T\)).
If z’ = 4 : The operation is equivalent to the Z-gate (\(Z\)).
If z’ = 5: The operation is equivalent to a composition of a Z-gate and a T-gate (\(Z \cdot T\)).
If z’ = 6: The operation is equivalent to a composition of a Z-gate and an S-gate (\(Z \cdot S\)).
If z’ = 7: The operation is equivalent to a composition of a Z-gate, an S-gate and a T-gate.
- 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:

- classmethod resource_decomp()[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
T
gate is treated as a fundamental gate and thus it cannot be decomposed further. Requesting the resources of this gate raises aResourcesUndefinedError
error.
- Raises:
ResourcesUndefinedError – This gate is fundamental, no further decomposition defined.
