class PauliTwoDesign(TwoLocal):
    r"""The Pauli Two-Design ansatz.

    This class implements a particular form of a 2-design circuit [1], which is frequently studied
    in quantum machine learning literature, such as e.g. the investigating of Barren plateaus in
    variational algorithms [2].

    The circuit consists of alternating rotation and entanglement layers with
    an initial layer of :math:`\sqrt{H} = RY(\pi/4)` gates.
    The rotation layers contain single qubit Pauli rotations, where the axis is chosen uniformly
    at random to be X, Y or Z. The entanglement layers is compromised of pairwise CZ gates
    with a total depth of 2.

    For instance, the circuit could look like this (but note that choosing a different seed
    yields different Pauli rotations).
