SingleQubitUnitary#

class qiskit.extensions.SingleQubitUnitary(unitary_matrix, mode='ZYZ', up_to_diagonal=False)[Quellcode]#

Bases: Gate

Single-qubit unitary.

Parameter:

unitary_matrix – \(2 imes 2\) unitary (given as a (complex) numpy.ndarray).
mode – determines the used decomposition by providing the rotation axes.
up_to_diagonal – the single-qubit unitary is decomposed up to a diagonal matrix, i.e. a unitary \(U'\) is implemented such that there exists a diagonal matrix \(D\) with \(U = D U'\).

Create a new single qubit gate based on the unitary u.

Attributes

condition_bits#: Get Clbits in condition.

decompositions#: Get the decompositions of the instruction from the SessionEquivalenceLibrary.

definition#: Return definition in terms of other basic gates.

diag#

Returns the diagonal gate D up to which the single-qubit unitary u is implemented.

I.e. u=D.u‘, where u‘ is the unitary implemented by the found circuit.

duration#: Get the duration.

label#: Return instruction label

name#: Return the name.

num_clbits#: Return the number of clbits.

num_qubits#: Return the number of qubits.

params#: return instruction params.

unit#: Get the time unit of duration.

Methods

add_decomposition(decomposition)#: Add a decomposition of the instruction to the SessionEquivalenceLibrary.

assemble()#: Assemble a QasmQobjInstruction

broadcast_arguments(qargs, cargs)#

Validation and handling of the arguments and its relationship.

For example, cx([q[0],q[1]], q[2]) means cx(q[0], q[2]); cx(q[1], q[2]). This method yields the arguments in the right grouping. In the given example:

in: [[q[0],q[1]], q[2]],[]
outs: [q[0], q[2]], []
      [q[1], q[2]], []

The general broadcasting rules are:

If len(qargs) == 1:
```
[q[0], q[1]] -> [q[0]],[q[1]]
```

If len(qargs) == 2:

[[q[0], q[1]], [r[0], r[1]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[1]]
[[q[0]], [r[0], r[1]]]       -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[0], r[1]]
[[q[0], q[1]], [r[0]]]       -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[0]]

If len(qargs) >= 3:

[q[0], q[1]], [r[0], r[1]],  ...] -> [q[0], r[0], ...], [q[1], r[1], ...]

Parameter:

qargs (list) – List of quantum bit arguments.
cargs (list) – List of classical bit arguments.

Rückgabe:

A tuple with single arguments.

Verursacht:

CircuitError – If the input is not valid. For example, the number of arguments does not match the gate expectation.

Rückgabetyp:

Iterable[tuple[list, list]]

c_if(classical, val)#: Set a classical equality condition on this instruction between the register or cbit classical and value val.

Bemerkung

This is a setter method, not an additive one. Calling this multiple times will silently override any previously set condition; it does not stack.

control(num_ctrl_qubits=1, label=None, ctrl_state=None)#

Return controlled version of gate. See ControlledGate for usage.

Parameter:

num_ctrl_qubits (int) – number of controls to add to gate (default: 1)
label (str | None) – optional gate label
ctrl_state (int | str | None) – The control state in decimal or as a bitstring (e.g. '111'). If None, use 2**num_ctrl_qubits-1.

Rückgabe:

Controlled version of gate. This default algorithm uses num_ctrl_qubits-1 ancilla qubits so returns a gate of size num_qubits + 2*num_ctrl_qubits - 1.

Rückgabetyp:

qiskit.circuit.ControlledGate

Verursacht:

QiskitError – unrecognized mode or invalid ctrl_state

copy(name=None)#

Copy of the instruction.

Parameter:: name (str) – name to be given to the copied circuit, if None then the name stays the same.
Rückgabe:: a copy of the current instruction, with the name updated if it was provided
Rückgabetyp:: qiskit.circuit.Instruction

inverse()[Quellcode]#

Return the inverse.

Note that the resulting gate has an empty params property.

is_parameterized()#: Return True .IFF. instruction is parameterized else False

power(exponent)#

Creates a unitary gate as gate^exponent.

Parameter:: exponent (float) – Gate^exponent
Rückgabe:: To which to_matrix is self.to_matrix^exponent.
Rückgabetyp:: qiskit.extensions.UnitaryGate
Verursacht:: CircuitError – If Gate is not unitary

qasm()#

Return a default OpenQASM string for the instruction.

Derived instructions may override this to print in a different format (e.g. measure q[0] -> c[0];).

Veraltet ab Version 0.25.0: The method qiskit.circuit.instruction.Instruction.qasm() is deprecated as of qiskit-terra 0.25.0. It will be removed no earlier than 3 months after the release date. Correct exporting to OpenQASM 2 is the responsibility of a larger exporter; it cannot safely be done on an object-by-object basis without context. No replacement will be provided, because the premise is wrong.

repeat(n)#

Creates an instruction with gate repeated n amount of times.

Parameter:: n (int) – Number of times to repeat the instruction
Rückgabe:: Containing the definition.
Rückgabetyp:: qiskit.circuit.Instruction
Verursacht:: CircuitError – If n < 1.

reverse_ops()#

For a composite instruction, reverse the order of sub-instructions.

This is done by recursively reversing all sub-instructions. It does not invert any gate.

Rückgabe:

a new instruction with: sub-instructions reversed.

Rückgabetyp:

qiskit.circuit.Instruction

soft_compare(other)#

Soft comparison between gates. Their names, number of qubits, and classical bit numbers must match. The number of parameters must match. Each parameter is compared. If one is a ParameterExpression then it is not taken into account.

Parameter:: other (instruction) – other instruction.
Rückgabe:: are self and other equal up to parameter expressions.
Rückgabetyp:: bool

to_matrix()#

Return a Numpy.array for the gate unitary matrix.

Rückgabe:: if the Gate subclass has a matrix definition.
Rückgabetyp:: np.ndarray
Verursacht:: CircuitError – If a Gate subclass does not implement this method an exception will be raised when this base class method is called.

validate_parameter(parameter)[Quellcode]#: Single-qubit unitary gate parameter has to be an ndarray.
