MatrixEvolution.convert

MatrixEvolution.convert(operator)

Traverse the operator, replacing EvolvedOps with CircuitOps containing UnitaryGates or HamiltonianGates (if self.coeff is a ParameterExpression) equalling the exponentiation of -i * operator. This is done by converting the EvolvedOp.primitive to a MatrixOp and simply calling .exp_i() on that.

Parameters

operator (OperatorBase) – The Operator to convert.

Return type

OperatorBase

Returns

The converted operator.
