Abstract

Optimizing quantum circuits is a critical step in the design and deployment of efficient, scalable, and fault tolerant quantum algorithms. As quantum circuits grow in depth and complexity, they often accumulate redundant or unnecessary gate operations. These redundancies not only increase the resource requirements of the circuit but also exacerbate one of the most pressing challenges in quantum computing—quantum noise. Unlike classical noise, quantum noise can irreversibly disturb the fragile quantum state, leading to decoherence and erroneous computational outcomes.

Comparative Analysis of Fault-Tolerant Implementation of Quantum Logic

Mamtha Prajapati, Kalyan Babu Killana

The need to consider fault-tolerant quantum circuits is essential due to the intrinsic fragility of quantum systems. Recent studies have focused on optimizing complexity, resource utilization, and error resilience to enhance execution efficiency on quantum hardware. This paper performs a comparative analysis of fault-tolerant implementation approaches for quantum circuit design, emphasizing resource optimization, scalability, and error resilience. This paper illustrates recent designs that include enhanced Toffoli gate decompositions with reduced T-depths and resource-effective designs, demonstrating the tradeoffs among T-depth, T-gate count, and ancilla usage. These insights facilitate developing effective, scalable, and reliable quantum computing solutions, which are essential for both near-term quantum computation and future advancements.

An introduction to reliable quantum computation

Panos Aliferis

This is an introduction to software methods of quantum fault tolerance. Broadly speaking, these methods describe strategies for using the noisy hardware components of a quantum computer to perform computations while continually monitoring and actively correcting the hardware faults. We discuss parallels and differences with similar methods for ordinary digital computation, we discuss some of the noise models used in designing and analyzing noisy quantum circuits, and we sketch the logic of some of the central results in this area of research.

Improving the number of T gates and their spread in integer multipliers on quantum computing

Francisco José Orts, Ernestas Filatovas, Gloria Ortega +2 more

Quantum circuits performing arithmetic operations are critical in quantum computing because of the need for such operations in proven quantum algorithms. Although quantum computers are becoming increasingly resourceful, the number of qubits currently available is still limited. Furthermore, these qubits are heavily affected by internal and external noise. It has been proven that quantum circuits built using Clifford $+T$ gates can be made fault tolerant. However, the use of the $T$ gates comes at a very high cost. If the number of $T$ gates used in a circuit is not optimized, the cost of the circuit will be increased excessively. As a consequence, it is essential to optimize the circuits so that they are as resource efficient as possible and also noise tolerant. This paper presents the design of a circuit to perform the multiplication of two integers. The circuit is built using only Clifford $+T$ gates for compatibility with error detection and correction codes. It outperforms the circuits in the state of the art in terms of $T$ count and $T$ depth.

Quantum Circuit Optimization of Arithmetic Circuits using ZX Calculus

Quantum computing is an emerging technology in which quantum mechanical properties are suitably utilized to perform certain compute-intensive operations faster than classical computers. Quantum algorithms are designed as a combination of quantum circuits that each require a large number of quantum gates, which is a challenge considering the limited number of qubit resources available in quantum computing systems. Our work proposes a technique to optimize quantum arithmetic algorithms by reducing the hardware resources and the number of qubits based on ZX calculus. We have utilized ZX calculus rewrite rules for the optimization of fault-tolerant quantum multiplier circuits where we are able to achieve a significant reduction in the number of ancilla bits and T-gates as compared to the originally required numbers to achieve fault-tolerance. Our work is the first step in the series of arithmetic circuit optimization using graphicalrewrite tools and it pavesthe way for advancing the optimization of various complex quantum circuits and establishing the potential for new applications of the same.
