SuzukiTrotter#

class qiskit.synthesis.SuzukiTrotter(order=2, reps=1, insert_barriers=False, cx_structure='chain', atomic_evolution=None)[source]#

Bases: ProductFormula

The (higher order) Suzuki-Trotter product formula.

The Suzuki-Trotter formulas improve the error of the Lie-Trotter approximation. For example, the second order decomposition is

\[e^{A + B} \approx e^{B/2} e^{A} e^{B/2}.\]

Higher order decompositions are based on recursions, see Ref. [1] for more details.

In this implementation, the operators are provided as sum terms of a Pauli operator. For example, in the second order Suzuki-Trotter decomposition we approximate

\[e^{-it(XX + ZZ)} = e^{-it/2 ZZ}e^{-it XX}e^{-it/2 ZZ} + \mathcal{O}(t^3).\]

0.20.0 ভার্সন থেকে ডেপ্রিকেটেড: Setting order to an odd number in the constructor of SuzukiTrotter is deprecated as of qiskit-terra 0.20.0. It will be removed no earlier than 3 months after the release date. Suzuki product formulae are symmetric and therefore only defined for even orders.

প্যারামিটার:

  • order (int) -- The order of the product formula.

  • reps (int) -- The number of time steps.

  • insert_barriers (bool) -- Whether to insert barriers between the atomic evolutions.

  • cx_structure (str) -- How to arrange the CX gates for the Pauli evolutions, can be "chain", where next neighbor connections are used, or "fountain", where all qubits are connected to one.

  • atomic_evolution (Callable[[Pauli | SparsePauliOp, float], QuantumCircuit] | None) -- A function to construct the circuit for the evolution of single Pauli string. Per default, a single Pauli evolution is decomposed in a CX chain and a single qubit Z rotation.
