Abstract

Ternary quantum circuits play a significant role in future quantum computing technology because they have many advantages over binary quantum circuits. Subtraction is considered as being one of the key arithmetic operations; hence, subtractors are very essential for the construction of various computational units of quantum computers and other complex computational systems. In this paper, we have proposed the realization of a quantum reversible ternary half-subtractor circuit using a generalized ternary gate, a ternary Toffoli gate, and a ternary C2NOT gate. Based on the realization of the ternary half-subtractor, we proposed the realization of a ternary full-subtractor.

Design of reversible ternary adder/subtractor and encoder/priority encoder circuits

Kaustav Ghosh, Md. Misbahul Haque, Sanjay Chakraborty

Ternary quantum logic plays a very important role for building high speed and efficient futuristic computers. It has several advantages over classical computing and binary quantum circuits. In this paper, the realization of basic ternary circuits for adder/subtractor, encoder and priority encoder are proposed and designed. These circuits are very essential for the construction of various computational units of quantum computers and other complex computational systems. Design of reversible circuits can be improved by reducing the quantum circuit cost. This paper uses some elementary components and typical ternary gates (generalized ternary gate, M-S gate etc.) to perform arithmetic addition, subtraction and encoding operations. Finally, it evaluates the optimum cost for each circuit.

Design of Quantum/Reversible Ternary Adder Circuit

Chteoui Henchir, Lamjed Touil, Abdellatif Mtibaa

The ternary quantum circuit is very useful in arithmetic and logic operations. This circuit has several advantages as it reduces power dissipation, step time, etc. Adder circuit is the main block of various computing units and for several other complex computer designs. In this current paper, we have used generalized ternary gate (GTG) and reversible gates for the synthesis of reversible half adder and a full adder circuits. The presented designs offer reduced constant inputs and less quantum cost, compared to existing designs. Our proposed design allows a reduction of 40% of the cost and 25% of the number of gates used.

Design of a Compact Ternary Parallel Adder/Subtractor Circuit in Quantum Computing

Nusrat Jahan Lisa, Hafiz Md. Hasan Babu

In this paper, we present an optimized design for the quantum ternary adder/subtract or circuit. We propose the design of quantum Ternary Peres Gate (TPG). The design of our proposed quantum ternary adder/subtract or circuit consists of two parts: a) Firstly, it has the design of a quantum ternary full-adder circuit using the proposed TPG gates, and b) Secondly, it designs the proposed adder/subtract or circuit by using the constructed full-adder in a) and M-S gates. We also propose a heuristic to design a compact ternary adder/subtract or circuit. Our circuits perform much better than the existing ones.

A High-Speed Quantum Reversible Controlled Adder/Subtractor Circuit

Negin Mashayekhi, Mohammad Reza Reshadinezhad, Shekoofeh Moghimi

Reversible logic is becoming increasingly important with the rise of technologies like quantum computing, as it retains information during computation and maintains a direct match between each input and its corresponding output. Quantum circuits are inherently reversible and the best computational model in quantum computing systems. Quantum computers require quantum processors. A critical component of any computer's processor is the arithmetic component, that handles binary operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Notably, multiplication can be accomplished by repeatedly adding, while division can be carried out by repeatedly subtracting. This paper proposes a new design of quantum-controlled adder/subtractor (QCAS) with efficient quantum criteria like delay, quantum cost, number of ancilla and of garbage outputs. We propose a quantum reversible controlled full adder/subtractor block which is applied to construct an n-bit quantum adder/subtractor circuit. The proposed circuit is simulated using the Quirk online tool and the result confirms the accuracy of the design. This design achieves 28.5% and 61.3% improvement in delay and garbage outputs, and 14% and 41.2% increase in quantum cost and constant input, compared to its counterpart, respectively.

Design of Reversible Binary Half and Full Adder/Subtractor Using Reversible Gates

Arwa S. Bazmalah, Noorfazila Kamal

The power consumption in classical computers has grown to be a critical issue. Thus, quantum computers have become a promising alternative to classical computers for more processing power and lower energy consumption. Reversible gates are important for building the quantum computers. Reversible circuits have various applications, such as digital signal processing, optical computing, quantum computing, etc. The design and synthesis of reversible gates and circuits have grown in popularity and attracted the attention of many researchers. The adder and subtractor are important computation blocks for the structure of the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU). In this paper, a design of reversible binary half and full adders and subtractors using reversible logic gates is proposed. The TR (Thapliyal Ranganathan) and Peres gates are used to construct the reversible half adder and subtractor circuit. Meanwhile, the Double Peres Gate (DPG), Fredkin, and NOT gates are used to build the reversible 1-bit full adder and subtractor circuit. The designs are optimized in terms of number of gates, constant inputs, garbage outputs, and quantum cost. The truth table representation and the Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) synthesis method are used to represent and synthesize the circuits, respectively. The circuits are synthesized and simulated using the Verilog Hardware Description Language code and Xilinx ISE 14.7. The results show that the proposed designs achieve the lowest quantum cost in both half adder/subtractor and full adder/subtractor. As the half adder/subtractor has six quantum cost and the full adder/subtractor has nine quantum cost.

New design of reversible/quantum devices for ternary arithmetic

Zhengbing Hu, V. G. Deı̆buk

Multiple-valued logic is a promising choice for future computer technologies, which provides a set of advantages comparing to binary circuits. We have developed an adaptive genetic algorithm for ternary reversible circuits using Muthukrishnan-Stroud gates. The method for chromosomes coding, as well as a reasonable choice of algorithm parameters, allowed obtaining circuits for ternary arithmetic devices, which are better than other known methods in terms of quantum cost, delay time and amount of input ancillary and output garbage qutrits. Based on our realization of ternary parallel full-adder we synthesized reversible ternary parallel adder/subtractor, which has better parameters over the previously reported devices.
