The heuristic excitation-preserving wave function ansatz.

The ExcitationPreserving circuit preserves the ratio of \(|00\rangle\), \(|01\rangle + |10\rangle\) and \(|11\rangle\) states. To this end, this circuit uses two-qubit interactions of the form

\[ \begin{align}\begin{aligned}\newcommand{\th}{\theta/2}\\\begin{split}\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos\left(\th\right) & -i\sin\left(\th\right) & 0 \\ 0 & -i\sin\left(\th\right) & \cos\left(\th\right) & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & e^{-i\phi} \end{pmatrix}\end{split}\end{aligned}\end{align} \]

for the mode 'fsim' or with \(e^{-i\phi} = 1\) for the mode 'iswap'.

Note that other wave functions, such as UCC-ansatzes, are also excitation preserving. However these can become complex quickly, while this heuristically motivated circuit follows a simpler pattern.

This trial wave function consists of layers of \(Z\) rotations with 2-qubit entanglements. The entangling is creating using \(XX+YY\) rotations and optionally a controlled-phase gate for the mode 'fsim'.

See RealAmplitudes for more detail on the possible arguments and options such as skipping unentanglement qubits, which apply here too.

The rotations of the ExcitationPreserving ansatz can be written as

パラメータ:

• num_qubits (int | None) – The number of qubits of the ExcitationPreserving circuit.

• mode (str) – Choose the entangler mode, can be 『iswap』 or 『fsim』.

• reps (int) – Specifies how often the structure of a rotation layer followed by an entanglement layer is repeated.

• entanglement (str | list[list[int]] | Callable[[int], list[int]]) – Specifies the entanglement structure. Can be a string (『full』, 『linear』 or 『sca』), a list of integer-pairs specifying the indices of qubits entangled with one another, or a callable returning such a list provided with the index of the entanglement layer. See the Examples section of TwoLocal for more detail.

• initial_state (QuantumCircuit | None) – A QuantumCircuit object to prepend to the circuit.

• skip_unentangled_qubits (bool) – If True, the single qubit gates are only applied to qubits that are entangled with another qubit. If False, the single qubit gates are applied to each qubit in the Ansatz. Defaults to False.

• skip_unentangled_qubits – If True, the single qubit gates are only applied to qubits that are entangled with another qubit. If False, the single qubit gates are applied to each qubit in the Ansatz. Defaults to False.

• skip_final_rotation_layer (bool) – If True, a rotation layer is added at the end of the ansatz. If False, no rotation layer is added. Defaults to True.

• parameter_prefix (str) – The parameterized gates require a parameter to be defined, for which we use ParameterVector.

• insert_barriers (bool) – If True, barriers are inserted in between each layer. If False, no barriers are inserted.

• flatten (bool | None) – Set this to True to output a flat circuit instead of nesting it inside multiple layers of gate objects. By default currently the contents of the output circuit will be wrapped in nested objects for cleaner visualization. However, if you’re using this circuit for anything besides visualization its strongly recommended to set this flag to True to avoid a large performance overhead for parameter binding.

例外:

ValueError – If the selected mode is not supported.

layout

Return any associated layout information about the circuit

This attribute contains an optional TranspileLayout object. This is typically set on the output from transpile() or PassManager.run() to retain information about the permutations caused on the input circuit by transpilation.

There are two types of permutations caused by the transpile() function, an initial layout which permutes the qubits based on the selected physical qubits on the Target, and a final layout which is an output permutation caused by SwapGates inserted during routing.

metadata

The user provided metadata associated with the circuit.

The metadata for the circuit is a user provided dict of metadata for the circuit. It will not be used to influence the execution or operation of the circuit, but it is expected to be passed between all transforms of the circuit (ie transpilation) and that providers will associate any circuit metadata with the results it returns from execution of that circuit.

num_ancillas

Return the number of ancilla qubits.

num_clbits

Return number of classical bits.

num_layers

Return the number of layers in the n-local circuit.

戻り値:

The number of layers in the circuit.

num_parameters

num_parameters_settable

The number of total parameters that can be set to distinct values.

This does not change when the parameters are bound or exchanged for same parameters, and therefore is different from num_parameters which counts the number of unique Parameter objects currently in the circuit.
