기반 클래스: BlueprintCircuit

The n-local circuit class.

The structure of the n-local circuit are alternating rotation and entanglement layers. In both layers, parameterized circuit-blocks act on the circuit in a defined way. In the rotation layer, the blocks are applied stacked on top of each other, while in the entanglement layer according to the entanglement strategy. The circuit blocks can have arbitrary sizes (smaller equal to the number of qubits in the circuit). Each layer is repeated reps times, and by default a final rotation layer is appended.

For instance, a rotation block on 2 qubits and an entanglement block on 4 qubits using 'linear' entanglement yields the following circuit.

       repeated reps times

If specified, barriers can be inserted in between every block. If an initial state object is provided, it is added in front of the NLocal.

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

  • rotation_blocks (QuantumCircuit | list[QuantumCircuit] | qiskit.circuit.Instruction | list[qiskit.circuit.Instruction] | None) – The blocks used in the rotation layers. If multiple are passed, these will be applied one after another (like new sub-layers).

  • entanglement_blocks (QuantumCircuit | list[QuantumCircuit] | qiskit.circuit.Instruction | list[qiskit.circuit.Instruction] | None) – The blocks used in the entanglement layers. If multiple are passed, these will be applied one after another. To use different entanglements for the sub-layers, see get_entangler_map().

  • entanglement (list[int] | list[list[int]] | None) – The indices specifying on which qubits the input blocks act. If None, the entanglement blocks are applied at the top of the circuit.

  • reps (int) – Specifies how often the rotation blocks and entanglement blocks are repeated.

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

  • parameter_prefix (str) – The prefix used if default parameters are generated.

  • overwrite_block_parameters (bool | list[list[Parameter]]) – If the parameters in the added blocks should be overwritten. If False, the parameters in the blocks are not changed.

  • skip_final_rotation_layer (bool) – Whether a final rotation layer is added to the circuit.

  • skip_unentangled_qubits (bool) – If True, the rotation gates act only on qubits that are entangled. If False, the rotation gates act on all qubits.

  • initial_state (QuantumCircuit | None) – A QuantumCircuit object which can be used to describe an initial state prepended to the NLocal circuit.

  • name (str | None) – The name of the circuit.

  • 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.

예외 발생:
  • ValueError – If reps parameter is less than or equal to 0.

  • TypeError – If reps parameter is not an int value.

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.
