[docs]class ExcitationPreserving(TwoLocal): r"""The heurisitic excitation-preserving wave function ansatz. The ``ExcitationPreserving`` circuit preserves the ratio of :math:`|00\rangle`, :math:`|01\rangle + |10\rangle` and :math:`|11\rangle` states. The matrix representing the operation is .. math:: \newcommand{\th}{\theta/2} \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \cos(\th) & -\sin(\th) & 0 \\ 0 & \sin(\th) & \cos(\th) & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 e^{-i\phi} \end{pmatrix} for the mode ``'fsim'`` or with :math:`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 :math:`Z` rotations with 2-qubit entanglements. The entangling is creating using :math:`XX+YY` rotations and optionally a controlled-phase gate for the mode ``'fsim'``. See :class:`~qiskit.circuit.library.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 Examples: >>> ansatz = ExcitationPreserving(3, reps=1, insert_barriers=True, entanglement='linear') >>> print(ansatz) # show the circuit ┌──────────┐ ░ ┌────────────┐┌────────────┐ ░ ┌──────────┐ q_0: ┤ RZ(θ[0]) ├─░─┤0 ├┤0 ├─────────────────────────────░─┤ RZ(θ[5]) ├ ├──────────┤ ░ │ RXX(θ[3]) ││ RYY(θ[3]) │┌────────────┐┌────────────┐ ░ ├──────────┤ q_1: ┤ RZ(θ[1]) ├─░─┤1 ├┤1 ├┤0 ├┤0 ├─░─┤ RZ(θ[6]) ├ ├──────────┤ ░ └────────────┘└────────────┘│ RXX(θ[4]) ││ RYY(θ[4]) │ ░ ├──────────┤ q_2: ┤ RZ(θ[2]) ├─░─────────────────────────────┤1 ├┤1 ├─░─┤ RZ(θ[7]) ├ └──────────┘ ░ └────────────┘└────────────┘ ░ └──────────┘ >>> ansatz = ExcitationPreserving(2, reps=1) >>> qc = QuantumCircuit(2) # create a circuit and append the RY variational form >>> qc.cry(0.2, 0, 1) # do some previous operation >>> qc.compose(ansatz, inplace=True) # add the swaprz >>> qc.draw() ┌──────────┐┌────────────┐┌────────────┐┌──────────┐ q_0: ─────■─────┤ RZ(θ[0]) ├┤0 ├┤0 ├┤ RZ(θ[3]) ├ ┌────┴────┐├──────────┤│ RXX(θ[2]) ││ RYY(θ[2]) │├──────────┤ q_1: ┤ RY(0.2) ├┤ RZ(θ[1]) ├┤1 ├┤1 ├┤ RZ(θ[4]) ├ └─────────┘└──────────┘└────────────┘└────────────┘└──────────┘ >>> ansatz = ExcitationPreserving(3, reps=1, mode='fsim', entanglement=[[0,2]], ... insert_barriers=True) >>> print(ansatz) ┌──────────┐ ░ ┌────────────┐┌────────────┐ ░ ┌──────────┐ q_0: ┤ RZ(θ[0]) ├─░─┤0 ├┤0 ├─■──────░─┤ RZ(θ[5]) ├ ├──────────┤ ░ │ ││ │ │ ░ ├──────────┤ q_1: ┤ RZ(θ[1]) ├─░─┤ RXX(θ[3]) ├┤ RYY(θ[3]) ├─┼──────░─┤ RZ(θ[6]) ├ ├──────────┤ ░ │ ││ │ │θ[4] ░ ├──────────┤ q_2: ┤ RZ(θ[2]) ├─░─┤1 ├┤1 ├─■──────░─┤ RZ(θ[7]) ├ └──────────┘ ░ └────────────┘└────────────┘ ░ └──────────┘ """ def __init__(self, num_qubits: Optional[int] = None, mode: str = 'iswap', entanglement: Union[str, List[List[int]], Callable[[int], List[int]]] = 'full', reps: int = 3, skip_unentangled_qubits: bool = False, skip_final_rotation_layer: bool = False, parameter_prefix: str = 'θ', insert_barriers: bool = False, initial_state: Optional[Any] = None, ) -> None: """Create a new ExcitationPreserving 2-local circuit.
