Constructing Approximately Diagonal Quantum Gates

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study a method of producing approximately diagonal 1-qubit gates. For each positive integer, the method provides a sequence of gates that are defined iteratively from a fixed diagonal gate and an arbitrary gate. These sequences are conjectured to converge to diagonal gates doubly exponentially fast and are verified for small integers. We systemically study this conjecture and prove several important partial results. Some techniques are developed to pave the way for a final resolution of the conjecture. The sequences provided here have applications in quantum search algorithms, quantum circuit compilation, generation of leakage-free entangled gates in topological quantum computing, etc.
