Floating-Point Arithmetic with Consistent Rounding on a Quantum Computer

R. Steijl

Implementation of floating-point arithmetic with consistent rounding is a critical component of many quantum algorithms. Quantum circuit implementations for squaring and division serve as examples here. This work was motivated by ongoing work in developing quantum algorithms for scientific and engineering computing applications, where this type of arithmetic often forms part of the algorithm. A key feature of the work is the use of a reduced-precision floating-point representation of real data specifically designed for near-term future quantum computing hardware with a limited number of qubits (e.g., less than 100) and with an increased level of fault tolerance as compared to current quantum computing hardware. The quantum circuit implementations of the squaring of a floating-point number and the division of two floating-point numbers are detailed here, highlighting similarities in the quantum circuit implementation for the logical steps required for rounding-to-nearest in line with the IEEE 754 standard for the two arithmetic operations. This similarity is an important feature regarding future work where an automated generation of this type of quantum circuit from a set of standard modules and circuit templates is employed.

Quantum algorithms and circuits for scientific computing

Quantum algorithms for scientific computing require modules implementing fundamental functions, such as the square root, the logarithm, and others. We require algorithms that have a well-controlled numerical error, that are uniformly scalable and reversible (unitary), and that can be implemented efficiently. We present quantum algorithms and circuits for computing the square root, the natural logarithm, and arbitrary fractional powers. We provide performance guarantees in terms of their worst-case accuracy and cost. We further illustrate their performance by providing tests comparing them to the respective floating point implementations found in widely used numerical software.
