This module implements the approximate single-qubit synthesis algorithm of
- N. J. Ross and P. Selinger, "Optimal ancilla-free Clifford+T approximation of z-rotations". http://arxiv.org/abs/1403.2975.
The algorithm is near-optimal in the following sense: it produces an operator whose expected T-count exceeds the T-count of the second-to-optimal solution to the approximate synthesis problem by at most O(log(log(1/ε))).

Approximate synthesis
User-friendly functions
gridsynth :: RandomGen g => g -> Double -> SymReal -> Int -> U2 DOmegaSource
Output a unitary operator in the Clifford+T group that
approximates Rz(θ) = e−iθZ/2 to within ε in the
operator norm. This operator can then be converted to a list of
gates with to_gates
.
The parameters are:
- a source of randomness g;
- the angle θ;
- the precision b ≥ 0 in bits, such that ε = 2-b;
- an integer that determines the amount of "effort" to put into factoring. A larger number means more time spent on factoring. A good default for this is 25.
Note: the argument theta is given as a symbolic real number. It
will automatically be expanded to as many digits as are necessary
for the internal calculation. In this way, the caller can specify,
e.g., an angle of pi/128 ::
SymReal
, without having to worry
about how many digits of π to specify.
gridsynth_gates :: RandomGen g => g -> Double -> SymReal -> Int -> [Gate]Source
A version of gridsynth
that returns a list of gates instead of a
matrix.
Note: the list of gates will be returned in right-to-left order, i.e., as in the mathematical notation for matrix multiplication. This is the opposite of the quantum circuit notation.
gridsynth_stats :: RandomGen g => g -> Double -> SymReal -> Int -> (U2 DOmega, Maybe Double, [(DOmega, DStatus)])Source

The ε-region
epsilon_region :: (Floating r, Ord r, RootHalfRing r, Quadratic r) => r -> r -> ConvexSet rSource
The ε-region for given ε and θ is a convex subset of the closed
unit disk, given by
Main algorithm implementation
gridsynth_internal :: forall r g. (RootHalfRing r, Ord r, Floating r, Adjoint r, Floor r, RealFrac r, Quadratic r, RandomGen g) => g -> r -> r -> Int -> (U2 DOmega, Maybe Double, [(DOmega, DStatus)])Source
The internal implementation of the ellipse-based approximate synthesis algorithm. The parameters are a source of randomness g, the angle θ, the precision b ≥ 0 in bits, and an amount of "effort" to put into factoring.
The outputs are a unitary operator in the Clifford+T group that
approximates Rz(θ) to within ε in the operator norm;
log0.5 of the actual error, or Nothing
if the error is 0;
and the number of candidates tried.
Note: the parameter θ must be of a real number type that has enough
precision to perform intermediate calculations; this typically
requires precision O(ε2). A more user-friendly function that
selects the required precision automatically is gridsynth
.
