Basic gates

This section contains various elementary gates that can be used as building blocks for constructing circuits.

type Timestep = Double Source #

A time step is a small floating point number used as a parameter to certain gates, such as rotation gates or the eiZt gate.

Reversible gates in functional style

The gates in this section are in "functional" style, which means that they return something. For example, the qnot gate consumes a Qubit, performs an operation, and outputs a new Qubit. The gates should be used like this:

output <- qnot input

or, for a binary gate:

(out0, out1) <- gate_W in0 in1

For each of these gates, we also provide a version in imperative style, see Reversible gates in imperative style below.

qnot :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a NOT gate to a qubit.

hadamard :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a Hadamard gate.

gate_H :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

An alternate name for the Hadamard gate.

gate_X :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a Pauli X gate.

gate_Y :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a Pauli Y gate.

gate_Z :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a Pauli Z gate.

gate_S :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a Clifford S-gate.

gate_S_inv :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply the inverse of an S-gate.

gate_T :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a T = √S gate.

gate_T_inv :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply the inverse of a T-gate.

gate_E :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a Clifford E = HS3ω3 gate.

This gate is the unique Clifford operator with the properties E³ = I, EXE⁻¹ = Y, EYE⁻¹ = Z, and EZE⁻¹ = X. It is a convenient gate for calculations. For example, every Clifford operator can be uniquely written of the form

  • EaXbScωd,

where a, b, c, and d are taken modulo 3, 2, 4, and 8, respectively.

gate_E_inv :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply the inverse of an E-gate.

gate_omega :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply the scalar ω = eiπ/4, as a single-qubit gate.

gate_V :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a V = √X gate. This is by definition the following gate (see also Nielsen and Chuang, p.182):

gate_V_inv :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply the inverse of a V-gate.

expZt :: Timestep -> Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply an eiZt gate. The timestep t is a parameter.

rGate :: Int -> Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a rotation by angle 2πi/2n about the z-axis.

gate_W :: Qubit -> Qubit -> Circ (Qubit, Qubit) Source #

Apply a W gate. The W gate is self-inverse and diagonalizes the SWAP gate.

The arguments are such that

gate_W |0〉 |0〉 = |00〉
gate_W |0〉 |1〉 = (|01〉+|10〉) / √2
gate_W |1〉 |0〉 = (|01〉-|10〉) / √2
gate_W |1〉 |1〉 = |11〉.

In circuit diagrams, W1 denotes the "left" qubit, and W2 denotes the "right" qubit.

gate_iX :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply an iX gate. This gate is used similarly to the Pauli X gate, but with two advantages:

  • the doubly-controlled iX gate can be implemented in the Clifford+T gate base with T-count 4 (the doubly-controlled X gate requires T-count 7);
  • the iX-gate has determinant 1, and therefore an n-times controlled iX gate can be implemented in the Clifford+T gate base with no ancillas.

In particular, the iX gate can be used to implement an additional control with T-count 8, like this:

gate_iX_inv :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit Source #

Apply a −iX gate. This is the inverse of gate_iX.

global_phase :: Double -> Circ () Source #

Apply a global phase change eiπt, where typically t ∈ [0,2]. This gate is uninteresting if not controlled; however, it has non-trivial effect if it is used as a controlled gate.

global_phase_anchored :: QCData qc => Double -> qc -> Circ () Source #

Like global_phase, except the gate is also "anchored" at a qubit, a bit, or more generally at some quantum data. The anchor is only used as a hint for graphical display. The gate, which is a zero-qubit gate, will potentially be displayed near the anchor(s).

qmultinot :: QData qa => qa -> Circ qa Source #

Negate all qubits in a quantum data structure.

cnot :: Bit -> Circ Bit Source #

Apply a NOT gate to a classical bit.

swap :: QCData qc => qc -> qc -> Circ (qc, qc) Source #

Apply a swap gate to two qubits. More generally, apply swap gates to every corresponding pair of qubits in two pieces of quantum data.

Reversible gates in imperative style

The gates in this section are in "imperative" style, which means that they operate on a qubit "in place" and do not return anything. The gates should be used like this:

qnot_at q

or, for a binary gate:

gate_W_at q0 q1

For each of these gates, we also provide a version in functional style, see Reversible gates in functional style above.

qnot_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a NOT gate to a qubit.

hadamard_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a Hadamard gate.

gate_H_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

An alternate name for the Hadamard gate.

Apply a Pauli X gate.

gate_Y_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a Pauli Y gate.

gate_Z_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a Pauli Z gate.

gate_S_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a Clifford S-gate.

gate_S_inv_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply the inverse of an S-gate.

gate_T_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a T = √S gate.

gate_T_inv_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply the inverse of a T-gate.

gate_E_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a Clifford E = HS3ω3 gate.

This gate is the unique Clifford operator with the properties E³ = I, EXE⁻¹ = Y, EYE⁻¹ = Z, and EZE⁻¹ = X. It is a convenient gate for calculations. For example, every Clifford operator can be uniquely written of the form

  • EaXbScωd,

where a, b, c, and d are taken modulo 3, 2, 4, and 8, respectively.

gate_E_inv_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply the inverse of an E-gate.

gate_omega_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply the scalar ω = eiπ/4, as a single-qubit gate.

gate_V_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a V = √X gate. This is by definition the following gate (see also Nielsen and Chuang, p.182):

gate_V_inv_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply the inverse of a V-gate.

expZt_at :: Timestep -> Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply an eiZt gate. The timestep t is a parameter.

rGate_at :: Int -> Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a rotation by angle 2πi/2n about the z-axis.

gate_W_at :: Qubit -> Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a W gate. The W gate is self-inverse and diagonalizes the SWAP gate.

The arguments are such that

gate_W |0〉 |0〉 = |00〉
gate_W |0〉 |1〉 = (|01〉+|10〉) / √2
gate_W |1〉 |0〉 = (|01〉-|10〉) / √2
gate_W |1〉 |1〉 = |11〉.

In circuit diagrams, W1 denotes the "left" qubit, and W2 denotes the "right" qubit.

gate_iX_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply an iX gate. This gate is used similarly to the Pauli X gate, but with two advantages:

  • the doubly-controlled iX gate can be implemented in the Clifford+T gate base with T-count 4 (the doubly-controlled X gate requires T-count 7);
  • the iX-gate has determinant 1, and therefore an n-times controlled iX gate can be implemented in the Clifford+T gate base with no ancillas.

In particular, the iX gate can be used to implement an additional control with T-count 8, like this:

gate_iX_inv_at :: Qubit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a −iX gate. This is the inverse of gate_iX_at.

qmultinot_at :: QData qa => qa -> Circ () Source #

Negate all qubits in a quantum data structure.

cnot_at :: Bit -> Circ () Source #

Apply a NOT gate to a classical bit.

swap_at :: QCData qc => qc -> qc -> Circ () Source #

Apply a swap gate to two qubits. More generally, apply swap gates to every corresponding pair of qubits in two pieces of quantum data.

Gates for state preparation and termination

qinit :: QShape ba qa ca => ba -> Circ qa Source #

Initialize a qubit from a boolean parameter. More generally, initialize a data structure of qubits from a corresponding data structure of boolean parameters. Examples:

q <- qinit False
(q0, q1) <- qinit (True, False)
[q0, q1, q2] <- qinit [True, False, True]

qterm :: QShape ba qa ca => ba -> qa -> Circ () Source #

Terminate a qubit, asserting its state to equal the boolean parameter. More generally, terminate a data structure of qubits, asserting that their state is as given by a data structure of booleans parameters. Examples:

qterm False q
qterm (False, False) (q0, q1)
qterm [False, False, False] [q0, q1, q2]

In some cases, it is permissible for some aspect of the parameter's shape to be underspecified, e.g., a longer than necessary list, or an integer of indeterminate length. It is therefore possible, for example, to write:

qterm 17 qa          -- when qa :: QDInt,
qterm [False..] qa   -- when qa :: [Qubit].

The rules for when a boolean argument can be "promoted" in this way are specific to each individual data type.

qdiscard :: QData qa => qa -> Circ () Source #

Discard a qubit, ignoring its state. This can leave the quantum system in a mixed state, so is not a reversible operation. More generally, discard all the qubits in a quantum data structure. Examples:

qdiscard q
qdiscard (q0, q1)
qdiscard [q0, q1, q2]

cinit :: QShape ba qa ca => ba -> Circ ca Source #

Initialize a Bit (boolean input) from a Bool (boolean parameter). More generally, initialize the a data structure of Bits from a corresponding data structure of Bools. Examples:

b <- cinit False
(b0, b1) <- cinit (True, False)
[b0, b1, b2] <- cinit [True, False, True]

cterm :: QShape ba qa ca => ba -> ca -> Circ () Source #

Terminate a Bit, asserting its state to equal the given Bool. More generally, terminate a data structure of Bits, asserting that their state is as given by a data structure of Bools. Examples:

cterm False b
cterm (False, False) (b0, b1)
cterm [False, False, False] [b0, b1, b2]

In some cases, it is permissible for some aspect of the parameter's shape to be underspecified, e.g., a longer than necessary list, or an integer of indeterminate length. It is therefore possible, for example, to write:

cterm 17 ca          -- when ca :: CInt,
cterm [False..] ca   -- when ca :: [Bit].

The rules for when a boolean argument can be "promoted" in this way are specific to each individual data type.

cdiscard :: CData ca => ca -> Circ () Source #

Discard a Bit, ignoring its state. This can leave the system in a mixed state, so is not a reversible operation. More generally, discard all the Bits in a data structure. Examples:

cdiscard b
cdiscard (b0, b1)
cdiscard [b0, b1, b2]

qc_init :: QCData qc => BType qc -> Circ qc Source #

Heterogeneous version of qinit. Please note that the type of the result of this function cannot be inferred from the type of the argument. For example,

x <- qc_init False

is ambiguous, unless it can be inferred from the context whether x is a Bit or a Qubit. If the type cannot be inferred from the context, it needs to be stated explicitly, like this:

x <- qc_init False :: Circ Qubit

Alternatively, qc_init_with_shape can be used to fix a specific type.

qc_init_with_shape :: QCData qc => qc -> BType qc -> Circ qc Source #

A version of qc_init that uses a shape type parameter. The first argument is the shape type parameter, and the second argument is a data structure containing boolean initializers. The shape type argument determines which booleans are used to initialize qubits, and which ones are used to initialize classical bits.

Example:

(x,y) <- qc_init_with_shape (bit,[qubit]) (True, [False,True])

This will assign to x a classical bit initialized to 1, and to y a list of two qubits initialized to |0〉 and |1〉, respectively.

qc_term :: QCData qc => BType qc -> qc -> Circ () Source #

Heterogeneous version of qterm.

qc_discard :: QCData qc => qc -> Circ () Source #

Heterogeneous version of qdiscard.

measure :: QShape ba qa ca => qa -> Circ ca Source #

Measure a Qubit, resulting in a Bit. More generally, measure all the Qubits in a quantum data structure, resulting in a corresponding data structure of Bits. This is not a reversible operation. Examples:

b <- measure q
(b0, b1) <- measure (q0, q1)
[b0, b1, b2] <- measure [q0, q1, q2]

prepare :: QShape ba qa ca => ca -> Circ qa Source #

Prepare a Qubit initialized from a Bit. More generally, prepare a data structure of Qubits, initialized from a corresponding data structure of Bits. Examples:

q <- prepare b
(q0, q1) <- prepare (b0, b1)
[q0, q1, q2] <- prepare [b0, b1, b2]

qc_measure :: QCData qc => qc -> Circ (QCType Bit Bit qc) Source #

Heterogeneous version of measure. Given a heterogeneous data structure, measure all of its qubits, and leave any classical bits unchanged.

qc_prepare :: QCData qc => qc -> Circ (QCType Qubit Qubit qc) Source #

Heterogeneous version of prepare. Given a heterogeneous data structure, prepare qubits from all classical bits, and leave any qubits unchanged.

Gates for classical circuits

The gates in this section are for constructing classical circuits. None of these gates alter or discard their inputs; each gate produces a new wire holding the output of the gate.

cgate_xor :: [Bit] -> Circ Bit Source #

Return the "exclusive or" of a list of bits.

cgate_eq :: Bit -> Bit -> Circ Bit Source #

Test equality of two bits, and return True iff they are equal.

cgate_not :: Bit -> Circ Bit Source #

Return the negation of its input. Note that unlike cnot or cnot_at, this gate does not alter its input, but returns a newly created bit.

cgate_and :: [Bit] -> Circ Bit Source #

Return the conjunction of a list of bits.

cgate_or :: [Bit] -> Circ Bit Source #

Return the disjunction of a list of bits.

cgate_if :: CData ca => Bit -> ca -> ca -> Circ ca Source #

If a is True, return a copy of b, else return a copy of c. Here b and c can be any data structures consisting of Bits, but b and c must be of the same type and shape (for example, if they are lists, they must be of equal length). Examples:

output <- cgate_if a b c
(out0, out1) <- cgate_if a (b0, b1) (c0, c1)
[out0, out1, out2] <- cgate_if a [b0, b1, b2] [c0, c1, c2]

circ_if :: CData ca => Bit -> Circ ca -> Circ ca -> Circ ca Source #

circ_if is an if-then-else function for classical circuits. It is a wrapper around cgate_if, intended to be used like this:

result <- circ_if <<<condition>>> (
  <<then-part>>>
  )(
  <<<else-part>>>
  )

Unlike cgate_if, this is a meta-operation, i.e., the bodies of the "then" and "else" parts can be circuit building operations.

What makes this different from the usual boolean "if-then-else" is that the condition is of type Bit, i.e., it is only known at circuit execution time. Therefore the generated circuit contains both the "then" and "else" parts, suitably controlled. Precondition: the "then" and "else" parts must be of the same type and shape.

User-defined gates

named_gate :: QData qa => String -> qa -> Circ qa Source #

Define a new functional-style gate of the given name. Usage:

my_unary_gate :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit
my_unary_gate = named_gate "Q"
my_binary_gate :: (Qubit, Qubit) -> Circ (Qubit, Qubit)
my_binary_gate = named_gate "R"

This defines a new unary gate and a new binary gate, which will be rendered as Q and R, respectively, in circuit diagrams.

named_gate_at :: QData qa => String -> qa -> Circ () Source #

Define a new imperative-style gate of the given name. Usage:

my_unary_gate_at :: Qubit -> Circ ()
my_unary_gate_at = named_gate_at "Q"
my_binary_gate_at :: (Qubit, Qubit) -> Circ ()
my_binary_gate_at = named_gate_at "R"

This defines a new unary gate and a new binary gate, which will be rendered as Q and R, respectively, in circuit diagrams.

named_rotation :: QData qa => String -> Timestep -> qa -> Circ qa Source #

Define a new functional-style gate of the given name, and parameterized by a real-valued parameter. This is typically used for rotations or phase gates that are parameterized by an angle. The name can contain '%' as a place holder for the parameter. Usage:

my_unary_gate :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit
my_unary_gate = named_rotation "exp(-i%Z)" 0.123
my_binary_gate :: TimeStep -> (Qubit, Qubit) -> Circ (Qubit, Qubit)
my_binary_gate t = named_rotation "Q(%)" t

named_rotation_at :: QData qa => String -> Timestep -> qa -> Circ () Source #

Define a new imperative-style gate of the given name, and parameterized by a real-valued parameter. This is typically used for rotations or phase gates that are parameterized by an angle. The name can contain '%' as a place holder for the parameter. Usage:

my_unary_gate_at :: Qubit -> Circ ()
my_unary_gate_at = named_rotation "exp(-i%Z)" 0.123
my_binary_gate_at :: TimeStep -> (Qubit, Qubit) -> Circ ()
my_binary_gate_at t = named_rotation "Q(%)" t

extended_named_gate :: (QData qa, QData qb) => String -> qa -> qb -> Circ qa Source #

Define a new functional-style gate of the given name. Like named_gate, except that the generated gate is extended with "generalized controls". The generalized controls are additional inputs to the gate that are guaranteed not to be modified if they are in a computational basis state. They are rendered in a special way in circuit diagrams. Usage:

my_new_gate :: (Qubit,Qubit) -> Qubit -> Circ (Qubit,Qubit)
my_new_gate = extended_named_gate "Q"

This defines a new gate with name Q, two inputs, and one generalized input.

extended_named_gate_at :: (QData qa, QData qb) => String -> qa -> qb -> Circ () Source #

Like extended_named_gate, except defines an imperative style gate. Usage:

my_new_gate_at :: (Qubit,Qubit) -> Qubit -> Circ ()
my_new_gate_at = extended_named_gate_at "Q"

This defines a new gate with name Q, two inputs, and one generalized input.

Dynamic lifting

dynamic_lift :: QShape ba qa ca => ca -> Circ ba Source #

Convert a Bit (boolean circuit output) to a Bool (boolean parameter). More generally, convert a data structure of Bits to a corresponding data structure of Bools.

For use in algorithms that require the output of a measurement to be used as a circuit-generation parameter. This is the case, for example, for sieving methods, and also for some iterative algorithms.

Note that this is not a gate, but a meta-operation. The input consists of classical circuit endpoints (whose values are known at circuit execution time), and the output is a boolean parameter (whose value is known at circuit generation time).

The use of this operation implies an interleaving between circuit execution and circuit generation. It is therefore a (physically) expensive operation and should be used sparingly. Using the dynamic_lift operation interrupts the batch mode operation of the quantum device (where circuits are generated ahead of time), and forces interactive operation (the quantum device must wait for the next portion of the circuit to be generated). This operation is especially expensive if the current circuit contains unmeasured qubits; in this case, the qubits must be preserved while the quantum device remains on standby.

Also note that this operation is not supported in all contexts. It is an error, for example, to use this operation in a circuit that is going to be reversed, or in the body of a boxed subroutine. Also, not all output devices (such as circuit viewers) support this operation.

Other circuit-building functions

qinit_plusminus :: Bool -> Circ Qubit Source #

Generate a new qubit initialized to |+〉 when b=False and |−〉 when b=True.

qinit_of_char :: Char -> Circ Qubit Source #

Generate a new qubit initialized to one of |0〉, |1〉, |+〉, |−〉, depending on a character c which is '0', '1', '+', or '-'.

qinit_of_string :: String -> Circ [Qubit] Source #

Generate a list of qubits initialized to a sequence of |0〉, |1〉, |+〉, |−〉, defined by a string argument e.g. "00+0+++".

map_hadamard :: QData qa => qa -> Circ qa Source #

Apply a Hadamard gate to every qubit in a quantum data structure.

map_hadamard_at :: QData qa => qa -> Circ () Source #

Imperative version of map_hadamard.

controlled_not :: QCData qc => qc -> qc -> Circ (qc, qc) Source #

Apply a controlled-not gate to every corresponding pair of quantum or classical bits in two pieces of QCData. The first argument is the target and the second the (positive) control.

For now, we require both pieces of QCData to have the same type, i.e., classical bits can be controlled only by classical bits and quantum bits can be controlled only by quantum bits.

Example:

((a',b'), (x,y)) <- controlled_not (a,b) (x,y)

is equivalent to

a' <- qnot a `controlled` x
b' <- qnot b `controlled` y

controlled_not_at :: QCData qc => qc -> qc -> Circ () Source #

Imperative version of controlled_not. Apply a controlled-not gate to every corresponding pair of quantum or classical bits in two pieces of QCData. The first argument is the target and the second the (positive) control.

bool_controlled_not :: QCData qc => qc -> BType qc -> Circ qc Source #

A version of controlled_not where the control consists of boolean data. Example:

bool_controlled_not (q, r, s) (True, True, False)

negates q and r, but not s.

bool_controlled_not_at :: QCData qc => qc -> BType qc -> Circ () Source #

A version of controlled_not_at where the control consists of boolean data. Example:

bool_controlled_not_at (q, r, s) (True, True, False)

negates q and r, but not s.

qc_copy :: QCData qc => qc -> Circ qc Source #

Create a fresh copy of a piece of quantum data. Note: copying is performed via a controlled-not operation, and is not cloning. This is similar to qc_copy_fun, except it returns only the copy, and not the original.

qc_uncopy :: QCData qc => qc -> qc -> Circ () Source #

"Uncopy" a piece of quantum data; i.e. terminate copy, assuming it's a copy of orig. This is the inverse of qc_copy, in the sense that the following sequence of instructions behaves like the identity function:

b <- qc_copy a
qc_uncopy a b

qc_copy_fun :: QCData qc => qc -> Circ (qc, qc) Source #

Initialize a new piece of quantum data, as a copy of a given piece. Returns both the original and the copy.

qc_uncopy_fun :: QCData qc => qc -> qc -> Circ qc Source #

Given two pieces of quantum data, assumed equal (w.r.t. the computational basis), terminate the second piece (and return the first, unmodified). This is the inverse of qc_copy_fun, in the sense that the following sequence of instructions behaves like the identity function:

(orig, copy) <- qc_copy_fun orig
orig <- qc_uncopy_fun orig copy

mapUnary :: QData qa => (Qubit -> Circ Qubit) -> qa -> Circ qa Source #

Map a single qubit gate across every qubit in the data structure.

mapBinary :: QData qa => (Qubit -> Qubit -> Circ (Qubit, Qubit)) -> qa -> qa -> Circ (qa, qa) Source #

Map a binary gate across every corresponding pair of qubits in two quantum data structures of equal shape.

mapBinary_c :: QShape ba qa ca => (Qubit -> Bit -> Circ (Qubit, Bit)) -> qa -> ca -> Circ (qa, ca) Source #

Like mapBinary, except the second data structure is classical.

qc_mapBinary :: QCData qc => (Qubit -> Qubit -> Circ (Qubit, Qubit)) -> (Bit -> Bit -> Circ (Bit, Bit)) -> qc -> qc -> Circ (qc, qc) Source #

Heterogeneous version of mapBinary. Map a binary gate f across every corresponding pair of qubits, and a binary gate g across every corresponding pair of bits, in two quantum data structures of equal shape.

Notation for controls

Some gates can be controlled by a condition involving one of more "control" qubits and/or classical bits at circuit execution time. Such gates can also be controlled by boolean conditions that are known at circuit generation time (in which case the gate will not be generated when the control condition is false). This section provides a convenient and flexible syntax for specifying controls.

In Quipper, controls can be written in a way that is reminiscent of (a restricted set of) ordinary boolean expressions. Here are some examples:

q1 .==. 0 .&&. q2 .==. 1   for Qubits q1, q2
q .&&. p                   means  q .==. 1  .&&.  p .==. 1
qx .==. 5                  for a QDInt qx
q1 .==. 0 .&&. z <= 7      combines quantum and classical controls
q ./=. b                   the negation of q .==. b;
                           here b is a boolean.
[p,q,r,s]                  a list of positive controls
[Signed p True, Signed q False, Signed r False, Signed s True]
                           a list of positive and negative controls

Among these infix operators, (.&&.) binds more weakly than (.==.), (./=.).

Controls can be attached to a gate by means of the infix operator controlled:

gate `controlled` <<controls>>   

class ControlSource a where Source #

A "control source" is anything that can be used as a control on a gate. The most common way to construct a control source is by using the .==., ./=., and .&&. operators. In addition, we provide the following instances:

  • Bool. A boolean condition that is known at circuit generation time can be used as a control, which is then either trivial (the gate is generated) or inconsistent (the gate is not generated).
  • Wire. This includes the type Bit (for a classical execution-time control) and Qubit (for a quantum control). A wire can be used as a shorthand notation for a positive control on that wire.
  • ControlList. A control list is Quipper's internal representation of a control condition, and is trivially a control source.
  • A list of control sources can be used as a control source.

Methods

to_control :: (a, b, c, d, e, f, g) -> ControlList Source #

data ControlList Source #

A ControlList is Quipper's internal representation of the type of conjunctive controls, i.e., controls that can be constructed using the .==., ./=., and .&&. operators.

(.&&.) :: (ControlSource a, ControlSource b) => a -> b -> ControlList infixr 3 Source #

This is an infix operator to concatenate two controls, forming their logical conjunction.

(.==.) :: QCData qc => qc -> BType qc -> ControlList infix 4 Source #

(qx .==. x): a control which is true just if quantum data qx is in the specified state x.

(./=.) :: QCLeaf q => q -> Bool -> ControlList infix 4 Source #

The notation (q ./=. x) is shorthand for (q .==. not x), when x is a boolean parameter.

Unlike .==., which is defined for any shape of quantum data, ./=. is only defined for a single control bit or qubit.

controlled :: ControlSource c => Circ a -> c -> Circ a infixl 2 Source #

An infix operator to apply the given controls to a gate:

gate `controlled` <<controls>>

It also works with functional-style gates:

result <- gate `controlled` <<controls>>

The infix operator is left associative, so it can be applied multiple times:

result <- gate `controlled` <<controls1>> `controlled` <<controls2>>

The latter is equivalent to

result <- gate `controlled` <<controls1>> .&&. <<controls2>>

Signed items

data Signed a Source #

A signed item of type a. Signed x True represents a positive item, and Signed x False represents a negative item.

When used with wires in a circuit, a positive sign is used to represent a positive control, i.e., a filled dot, and a negative sign is used to represent a negative control, i.e., an empty dot.

Comments and labelling

comment :: String -> Circ () Source #

Insert a comment in the circuit. This is not a gate, and has no effect, except to mark a spot in the circuit. How the comment is displayed depends on the printing backend.

label :: Labelable qa labels => qa -> labels -> Circ () Source #

Label qubits in the circuit. This is not a gate, and has no effect, except to make the circuit more readable. How the labels are displayed depends on the printing backend. This can take several different forms. Examples:

Label q as q and r as r:

label (q,r) ("q", "r")

Label a, b, and c as a, b, and c, respectively:

label [a,b,c] ["a", "b", "c"]

Label q as x[0] and r as x[1]:

label (q,r) "x"

Label a, b, and c as x[0], x[1], x[2]:

label [a,b,c] "x"

comment_with_label :: Labelable qa labels => String -> qa -> labels -> Circ () Source #

Combine comment and label in a single command.

without_comments :: Circ a -> Circ a Source #

Disable labels and comments for a block of code. The intended usage is like this:

without_comments $ do {
  <<<code block>>>
}

This is sometimes useful in situations where code is being re-used, for example when one function is implemented in terms of another, but should not inherit comments from it. It is also useful in the definition of recursive function, where a comment should only be applied at the outermost level. Finally, it can be used to suppress comments from parts of circuits for presentation purposes.

class Labelable a s Source #

Labelable a s means that a is a data structure that can be labelled with the format s. A "format" is a string, or a data structure with strings at the leaves.

Hierarchical circuits

box :: (QCData qa, QCData qb, QCurry qa_qb qa qb) => String -> qa_qb -> qa_qb Source #

A generic interface for wrapping a circuit-generating function into a boxed and named subroutine. This takes a name and a circuit-generating function, and returns a new circuit-generating function of the same type, but which inserts a boxed subroutine instead of the actual body of the subroutine.

It is intended to be used like this:

somefunc :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit
somefunc a = do ...

somefunc_boxed :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit
somefunc_boxed = box "somefunc" somefunc

Here, the type of somefunc is just an example; this could indeed be a function with any number and type of arguments, as long as the arguments and return type are quantum data.

It is also possible to inline the box operator directly, in which case it should be done like this:

somefunc :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit
somefunc = box "somefunc" $ \a -> do ...

Note: The box operator wraps around a complete function, including all of its arguments. It would be incorrect to apply the box operator after some quantum variables have already been defined. Thus, the following is incorrect:

incorrect_somefunc :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit
incorrect_somefunc a = box "somefunc" $ do ...

It is the user's responsibility not to use the same name for different subroutines. If box is called more than once with the same name and shape of input, Quipper assumes, without checking, that they are subsequent calls to the same subroutine.

The type of the box operator is overloaded and quite difficult to read. It can have for example the following types:

box :: String -> (Qubit -> Circ Qubit) -> (Qubit -> Circ Qubit)
box :: String -> (QDInt -> QDInt -> Circ (QDInt,QDInt,QDInt)) -> (QDInt -> QDInt -> Circ (QDInt,QDInt,QDInt))

nbox :: QCData qa => String -> Integer -> (qa -> Circ qa) -> qa -> Circ qa Source #

A version of box with iteration. The second argument is an iteration count.

This can only be applied to functions of a single argument, where the input and output types are the same.

box_loopM :: (Integral int, QCData qa) => String -> int -> qa -> (qa -> Circ qa) -> Circ qa Source #

A version of nbox with same type as loopM.

loopM_boxed_if :: (Integral int, QCData qa) => Bool -> String -> int -> qa -> (qa -> Circ qa) -> Circ qa Source #

A version of loopM that will be boxed conditionally on a boolean condition. Typical usage:

loopM_boxed_if (s > 1) "name" s x $ \x -> do
  <<<body>>>
  return x

Block structure

The following are higher-order functions that provide a way to structure quantum programs into blocks. A block can contain local ancillas or local controls.

Ancillas

The use of the with_ancilla family of operators is preferable to using qinit and qterm directly. In particular, it is possible to add controls to a block created with one of the with_ancilla family of operators, whereas qinit and qterm, when used individually, cannot be controlled.

with_ancilla :: (Qubit -> Circ a) -> Circ a Source #

Convenient wrapper around qinit and qterm. This can be used to introduce an ancilla with a local scope, like this:

with_ancilla $ \h -> do {
  <<<code block using ancilla h>>>
}

The ancilla will be initialized to |0〉 at the beginning of the block, and it is the programmer's responsibility to ensure that it will be returned to state |0〉 at the end of the block.

A block created with with_ancilla is controllable, provided that the body is controllable.

with_ancilla_list :: Int -> (Qulist -> Circ a) -> Circ a Source #

Like with_ancilla, but creates a list of n ancillas, all initialized to |0〉. Usage:

with_ancilla_list n $ \a -> do {
  <<<code block using list of ancillas a>>>
}

with_ancilla_init :: QShape a qa ca => a -> (qa -> Circ b) -> Circ b Source #

Execute a block with local ancillas. Opens a block, initializing an ancilla with a specified classical value, and terminates it with the same value when the block closes. Note: it is the programmer's responsibility to return the ancilla to its original state at the end of the enclosed block. Usage:

with_ancilla_init True $ \a -> do {
  <<<code block using ancilla a initialized to True>>>
}
with_ancilla_init [True,False,True] $ \a -> do {
  <<<code block using list of ancillas a initialized to [True,False,True]>>>
}

Automatic uncomputing

with_computed_fun :: (QCData x, QCData y) => x -> (x -> Circ y) -> (y -> Circ (y, b)) -> Circ (x, b) Source #

with_computed_fun x f g: computes x' := f(x); then computes g(x'), which should be organized as a pair (x',y); then uncomputes x' back to x, and returns (x,y).

Important subtlety in usage: all quantum data referenced in f, even as controls, must be explicitly bound and returned by f, or the reversing may rebind it incorrectly. g, on the other hand, can safely refer to anything that is in scope outside the with_computed_fun.

with_computed :: QCData x => Circ x -> (x -> Circ b) -> Circ b Source #

with_computed computation code: performs computation (with result x), then performs code x, and finally performs the reverse of computation, for example like this:

Both computation and code may refer to any qubits that exist in the current environment, and they may also create new qubits. computation may produce arbitrary garbage in addition to its output.

This is a very general but relatively unsafe operation. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the computation can indeed be undone. In particular, if computation contains any initializations, then code must ensure that the corresponding assertions will be satisfied in computation−1.

Related more specialized, but potentially safer, operations are:

with_basis_change :: Circ () -> Circ b -> Circ b Source #

with_basis_change basischange code: performs a basis change, then the code, then the inverse of the basis change. Both basischange and code are in imperative style. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the image of code is contained in the image of basischange, or else there will be unmet assertions or runtime errors. Usage:

with_basis_change basischange $ do
  <<<code>>>

where
  basischange = do
    <<<gates>>>

Controls

with_controls :: ControlSource c => c -> Circ a -> Circ a Source #

A syntax for "if"-style (classical and quantum) controls. This can be used as follows:

gate1
with_controls <<controls>> $ do {
  gate2
  gate3
}
gate4

The specified controls will be applied to gate2 and gate3. It is an error to specify a control for a gate that cannot be controlled (such as measurement).

with_classical_control :: QCData qa => Bit -> String -> qa -> (qa -> Circ qa) -> Circ qa Source #

Classical control on a function with same shape of input and output: if the control bit is true the function is fired, otherwise the identity map is used. Note: the constraint on the types is dynamically checked.

without_controls :: Circ a -> Circ a Source #

Apply a block of gates while temporarily suspending the application of controls. This can be used to omit controls on gates where they are known to be unnecessary. This is a relatively low-level function and should not normally be called directly by user code. Instead, it is safer to use a higher-level function such as with_basis_change. However, the without_controls operator is useful in certain situations, e.g., it can be used to preserve the NoControlFlag when defining transformers.

Usage:

without_controls $ do 
  <<code block>>

or:

without_controls (gate)

Note that all controls specified in the surrounding code are disabled within the without_controls block. This is even true if the without_controls block appears in a subroutine, and the subroutine is later called in a controlled context. On the other hand, it is possible to specify controls inside the without_controls block. Consider this example:

my_subcircuit = do
  gate1
  without_controls $ do {
    gate2
    gate3 `controlled` <<controls1>>
  }
  gate4

my_circuit = do
  my_subcircuit `controlled` <<controls2>>

In this example, controls 1 will be applied to gate 3, controls 2 will be applied to gates 1 and 4, and no controls will be applied to gate 2.

without_controls_if :: NoControlFlag -> Circ a -> Circ a Source #

Apply without_controls if NoControlFlag is True, otherwise do nothing.

Loops

for :: Monad m => Int -> Int -> Int -> (Int -> m ()) -> m () Source #

A "for" loop. Counts from a to b in increments of s.

Standard notation:

for i = a to b by s do
  commands             
end for

Our notation:

for a b s $ \i -> do
  commands
endfor

endfor :: Monad m => m () Source #

Mark the end of a "for"-loop. This command actually does nothing, but can be used to make the loop look prettier.

foreach :: Monad m => [a] -> (a -> m b) -> m () Source #

Iterate a parameter over a list of values. It can be used as follows:

foreach [1,2,3,4] $ \n -> do
  <<<loop body depending on the parameter n>>>
endfor

The loop body will get executed once for each n ∈ {1,2,3,4}.

loop :: (Eq int, Num int) => int -> t -> (t -> t) -> t Source #

Iterate a function n times. Example:

loop 3 x f = f (f (f x))

loop_with_index :: (Eq int, Num int) => int -> t -> (int -> t -> t) -> t Source #

Like loop, but also pass a loop counter to the function being iterated. Example:

loop_with_index 3 x f = f 2 (f 1 (f 0 x))

loopM :: (Eq int, Num int, Monad m) => int -> t -> (t -> m t) -> m t Source #

Monadic version of loop.

loop_with_indexM :: (Eq int, Num int, Monad m) => int -> t -> (int -> t -> m t) -> m t Source #

Monadic version of loop_with_index. Thus,

loop_with_indexM 3 x0 f

will do the following:

do
  x1 <- f 0 x0
  x2 <- f 1 x1
  x3 <- f 2 x2    
  return x3

Operations on circuits

Reversing

reverse_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y, TupleOrUnary xt x, QCurry x_y x y, Curry x_y_xt x (y -> Circ xt)) => x_y -> x_y_xt Source #

Reverse a circuit-generating function. The reversed function requires a shape parameter, given as the input type of the original function.

The type of this highly overloaded function is quite difficult to read. It can have for example the following types:

reverse_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y) => (x -> Circ y) -> x -> (y -> Circ x) 
reverse_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y, QCData z) => (x -> y -> Circ z) -> x -> y -> (z -> Circ (x,y)) 

reverse_simple :: (QCData_Simple x, QCData y, TupleOrUnary xt x, QCurry x_y x y) => x_y -> y -> Circ xt Source #

Like reverse_generic, but only works at simple types, and therefore requires no shape parameters. Typical type instances:

reverse_simple :: (QCData_Simple x, QCData y) => (x -> Circ y) -> (y -> Circ x)
reverse_simple :: (QCData_Simple x, QCData_Simple y, QCData z) => (x -> y -> Circ z) -> (z -> Circ (x,y))

reverse_generic_endo :: (QCData x, TupleOrUnary xt x, QCurry x_xt x xt) => x_xt -> x_xt Source #

Like reverse_generic, but specialized to endomorphic circuits, i.e., circuits where the input and output have the same type (modulo possibly currying) and shape. In this case, unlike reverse_generic, no additional shape parameter is required, and the reversed function is curried if the original function was. Typical type instances:

reverse_generic_endo :: (QCData x) => (x -> Circ x) -> (x -> Circ x)
reverse_generic_endo :: (QCData x, QCData y) => (x -> y -> Circ (x,y)) -> (x -> y -> Circ (x,y))

reverse_generic_imp :: (QCData x, QCurry x__ x ()) => x__ -> x__ Source #

Like reverse_generic_endo, but applies to endomorphic circuits expressed in "imperative" style. Typical type instances:

reverse_generic_endo :: (QCData x) => (x -> Circ ()) -> (x -> Circ ())
reverse_generic_endo :: (QCData x, QCData y) => (x -> y -> Circ ()) -> (x -> y -> Circ ())

reverse_generic_curried :: (QCData x, QCData y, TupleOrUnary xt x, Tuple yt y, QCurry x_yt x yt, QCurry y_xt y xt, Curry x_y_xt x y_xt) => x_yt -> x_y_xt Source #

Like reverse_generic, but takes functions whose output is a tuple, and curries the reversed function. Differs from reverse_generic in an example such as:

f                         :: (x -> y -> Circ (z,w))
reverse_generic f         :: x -> y -> ((z,w) -> Circ (x,y))
reverse_generic_curried f :: x -> y -> (z -> w -> Circ (x,y))

Note: the output must be a n-tuple, where n = 0 or n ≥ 2. Applying this to a circuit whose output is a non-tuple type is a type error; in this case, reverse_generic should be used.

reverse_simple_curried :: (QCData_Simple x, QCData y, TupleOrUnary xt x, Tuple yt y, QCurry x_yt x yt, QCurry y_xt y xt) => x_yt -> y_xt Source #

Like reverse_simple, but takes functions whose output is a tuple, and curries the reversed function. Typical type instance:

reverse_simple_curried :: (QCData_Simple x, QCData y, QCData z) => (x -> Circ (y,z)) -> (y -> z -> Circ x)

Note: the output must be a n-tuple, where n = 0 or n ≥ 2. Applying this to a circuit whose output is a non-tuple type is a type error; in this case, reverse_generic should be used.

reverse_endo_if :: (QCData x, TupleOrUnary xt x, QCurry x_xt x xt) => Bool -> x_xt -> x_xt Source #

Conditional version of reverse_generic_endo. Invert the endomorphic quantum circuit if the boolean is true; otherwise, insert the non-inverted circuit.

reverse_imp_if :: (QCData qa, QCurry fun qa ()) => Bool -> fun -> fun Source #

Conditional version of reverse_generic_imp. Invert the imperative style quantum circuit if the boolean is true; otherwise, insert the non-inverted circuit.

Print a circuit generating function to the specified format. Unlike print_unary, this can be applied to a circuit-generating function in curried form with n arguments, for any n >= 0. It then requires n shape parameters.

The type of this heavily overloaded function is difficult to read. In more readable form, it has all of the following types:

classical_to_cnot :: (QCData qa) => Circ qa -> Circ qa
classical_to_cnot :: (QCData qa, QCData qb) => (qa -> Circ qb) -> (qa -> Circ qb)

classical_to_quantum :: (QCData qa) => Circ qa -> Circ (QType qa)
classical_to_quantum :: (QCData qa, QCData qb) => (qa -> Circ qb) -> (QType qa -> Circ (QType qb))
classical_to_quantum :: (QCData qa, QCData qb, QCData qc) => (qa -> qb -> Circ qc) -> (QType qa -> QType qb -> Circ (QType qc))

and so forth.

Ancilla uncomputation

classical_to_reversible :: (QCData qa, QCData qb) => (qa -> Circ qb) -> (qa, qb) -> Circ (qa, qb) Source #

Generic function for turning a classical (or pseudo-classical) circuit into a reversible circuit. The input is a classical boolean function xf(x), given as a not necessarily reversible circuit (however, the circuit should be one-to-one, i.e., no "garbage" should be explicitly erased). The output is the corresponding reversible function (x,y) ↦ (x,yf(x)). qa and qb can be any quantum data types. The function classical_to_reversible does not itself change classical bits to qubits; use classical_to_quantum for that.

Circuit transformers

Transformers are a very general way of defining mappings over circuits. Possible uses of this include:

  • gate transformations, where a whole circuit is transformed by replacing each kind of gate with another gate or circuit;
  • error correcting codes, where a whole circuit is transformed replacing each qubit by some fixed number of qubits, and each gate by a circuit; and
  • simulations, where a whole circuit is mapped to a semantic function by specifying a semantic function for each gate.

The interface is designed to allow the programmer to specify new transformers easily. To define a specific transformation, the programmer has to specify only three pieces of information:

  • Types a=⟦Qubit⟧ and b=⟦Bit⟧, to serve as semantic domains.
  • A monad m. This is to allow translations to have side effects if desired; one can use the identity monad otherwise.
  • For every gate G, a corresponding semantic function ⟦G⟧. The type of this function depends on what kind of gate G is. For example:
If G :: Qubit -> Circ Qubit, then ⟦G⟧ :: a -> m a. 
If G :: (Qubit, Bit) -> Circ (Bit, Bit), then ⟦G⟧ :: (a, b) -> m (b, b).

The programmer provides this information by defining a function of type Transformer m a b, see below. Once a particular transformer has been defined, it can then be applied to entire circuits. For example, for a circuit with 1 inputs and 2 outputs:

If C :: Qubit -> (Qubit, Qubit), then ⟦C⟧ :: a -> m (a, a).

User-definable transformers

type Transformer m a b = forall x. T_Gate m a b x -> x Source #

A circuit transformer is specified by defining a function of type Transformer m a b. This involves specifying a monad m, semantic domains a=⟦Qubit⟧ and b=⟦Bit⟧, and a semantic function for each gate, like this:

my_transformer :: Transformer m a b
my_transformer (T_Gate1 <parameters> f) = f $ <semantic function for gate 1>
my_transformer (T_Gate2 <parameters> f) = f $ <semantic function for gate 2>
my_transformer (T_Gate3 <parameters> f) = f $ <semantic function for gate 3>
...

data T_Gate m a b x Source #

The type T_Gate is used to define case distinctions over gates in the definition of transformers. For each kind of gate X, it contains a constructor of the form (T_X f). Here, X identifies the gate, and f is a higher-order function to pass the translation of X to.

Pre-defined transformers

identity_transformer :: Transformer Circ Qubit Bit Source #

The identity transformer. This just maps a low-level circuits to the corresponding circuit-generating function. It can also be used as a building block in other transformers, to define "catch-all" clauses for gates that don't need to be transformed.

An example transformer

The following is a short but complete example of how to write and use a simple transformer. As usual, we start by importing Quipper:

import Quipper

We will write a transformer called sample_transformer, which maps every swap gate to a sequence of three controlled-not gates, and leaves all other gates unchanged. For convenience, Quipper pre-defines an identity_transformer, which can be used as a catch-all clause to take care of all the gates that don't need to be rewritten.

mytransformer :: Transformer Circ Qubit Bit
mytransformer (T_QGate "swap" 2 0 _ ncf f) = f $
  \[q0, q1] [] ctrls -> do
    without_controls_if ncf $ do
      with_controls ctrls $ do
        qnot_at q0 `controlled` q1
        qnot_at q1 `controlled` q0
        qnot_at q0 `controlled` q1
        return ([q0, q1], [], ctrls)
mytransformer g = identity_transformer g

Note how Quipper syntax has been used to define the replacement circuit new_swap, consisting of three controlled-not gates. Also, since the original swap gate may have been controlled, we have added the additional controls with a with_controls operator. Finally, the without_controls_if operator ensures that if the NoControlFlag is set on the original swap gate, then it will also be set on the replacement circuit.

To try this out, we define some random circuit using swap gates:

mycirc a b c d = do
  swap_at a b
  hadamard_at b
  swap_at b c `controlled` [a, d]
  hadamard_at c
  swap_at c d

To apply the transformer to this circuit, we use the generic operator transform_generic:

mycirc2 = transform_generic mytransformer mycirc

Finally, we use a main function to display the original circuit and then the transformed one:

main = do
  print_simple Preview mycirc
  print_simple Preview mycirc2

Applying transformers to circuits

transform_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y, QCurry qfun x y) => Transformer Circ Qubit Bit -> qfun -> qfun Source #

Apply the given transformer to a circuit. Unlike transform_unary, this function can be applied to a circuit-generating function in curried form with n arguments, for any n ≥ 0.

The type of this heavily overloaded function is difficult to read. In more readable form, it has all of the following types:

transform_generic :: (QCData x) => Transformer Circ Qubit Bit -> Circ x -> Circ x
transform_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y) => Transformer Circ Qubit Bit -> (x -> Circ y) -> (x -> Circ y)
transform_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y, QCData z) => Transformer Circ Qubit Bit -> (x -> y -> Circ z) -> (x -> y -> Circ z)

and so forth.

transform_generic_shape :: (QCData x, QCData y, QCurry qfun x y, Curry qfun' x' (m y'), Curry qfun'' x qfun', x' ~ QCType a b x, y' ~ QCType a b y, Monad m) => Transformer m a b -> qfun -> qfun'' Source #

Like transform_generic, but applies to arbitrary transformers of type

Transformer m a b

instead of the special case

Transformer Circ Qubit Bit.

This requires an additional shape argument.

The type of this heavily overloaded function is difficult to read. In more readable form, it has all of the following types:

transform_generic :: (QCData x) => Transformer m a b -> Circ x -> m (QCData a b x)
transform_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y) => Transformer m a b -> (x -> Circ y) -> x -> (QCData a b x -> m (QCData a b y))
transform_generic :: (QCData x, QCData y, QCData z) => Transformer m a b -> (x -> y -> Circ z) -> x -> y -> (QCData a b x -> QCData a b y -> m (QCData a b z))

and so forth.

Auxiliary type definitions

type InverseFlag = Bool Source #

A flag that, if True, indicates that the gate is inverted.

type NoControlFlag = Bool Source #

A flag that, if True, indicates that the gate is controllable, but any further controls on the gate should be ignored. This is used, e.g., for circuits consisting of a basis change, some operation, and the inverse basis change. When controlling such a circuit, it is sufficient to control the middle operation, so the gates belonging to the basis change and its inverse will have the NoControlFlag set.

data B_Endpoint a b Source #

An endpoint is either a qubit or a bit. In a transformer, we have ⟦B_Endpoint Qubit Bit⟧ = ⟦Qubit⟧ + ⟦Bit⟧. The type B_Endpoint a b is the same as Either a b, but we use more suggestive field names.

Automatic circuit generation from classical code

The following two modules provide functions that are useful for automatic circuit generation from classical code. Please see Quipper.Internal.CircLifting for a more detailed explanation of how to use this feature.

Extended quantum data types

Homogeneous quantum data types

type QShape ba qa ca = (QData qa, BType qa ~ ba, CType qa ~ ca) Source #

The QShape class allows the definition of generic functions that can operate on quantum data of any "shape", for example, nested tuples or lists of qubits.

In general, there are three kinds of data: quantum inputs (such as Qubit), classical inputs (such as Bit), and classical parameters (such as Bool). For example, a Qubit can be initialized from a Bool; a Qubit can be measured, resulting in a Bit, etc. For this reason, the type class QShape establishes a relation between three types:

qa
A data structure having Qubit at the leaves.
ca
A data structure of the same shape as qa, having Bit at the leaves.
ba
A data structure of the same shape as qa, having Bool at the leaves.

Some functions input a classical parameter for the sole purpose of establishing the "shape" of a piece of data. The shape refers to qualities of a data structure, such as the length of a list, which are not uniquely determined by the type. For example, two different lists of length 5 have the same shape. When performing a generic operation, such as reversing a circuit, it is often necessary to specify the shape of the inputs, but not the actual inputs.

In the common case where one only needs to declare one of the types qa, ca, or ba, one of the simpler type classes QData, CData, or BData can be used.

type QData qa = (qa ~ QType (CType qa), qa ~ QTypeB (BType qa), qa ~ QCType Qubit Bool qa, qa ~ QType qa, QCData qa, QCData (CType qa)) Source #

The QData type class contains homogeneous data types built up from leaves of type Qubit.

type CData ca = (QData (QType ca), CType (QType ca) ~ ca) Source #

The CData type class contains homogeneous data types built up from leaves of type Bit.

type BData ba = (QData (QTypeB ba), BType (QTypeB ba) ~ ba) Source #

The BData type class contains homogeneous data types built up from leaves of type Bool.

Heterogeneous quantum data types

class (Labelable qc String, Typeable qc, Show qc, Show (LType qc), qc ~ QCType Qubit Bit qc, CType (QType qc) ~ CType qc, BType (CType qc) ~ BType qc, QCType Int Bool (CType qc) ~ BType qc) => QCData qc Source #

The QCData type class contains heterogeneous data types built up from leaves of type Qubit and Bit. It is the basis for several generic operations that apply to classical and quantum data, such as copying, transformers, simulation, and heterogeneous versions of qterm and qdiscard.

QCData and QData are interrelated, in the sense that the following implications hold:

QData qa   implies   QCData qa
CData ca   implies   QCData ca

Implications in the converse direction also hold whenever qc is a fixed known type:

QCData qc   implies   QData (QType qc)
QCData qc   implies   CData (CType qc)
QCData qc   implies   BData (BType qc)

However, the type checker cannot prove the above implication in the case where qc is a type variable; for this, the more flexible (but more computationally expensive) QCDataPlus class can be used.

type QCDataPlus qc = (QCData qc, QData (QType qc)) Source #

The QCDataPlus type class is almost identical to QCData, except that it contains one additional piece of information that allows the type checker to prove the implications

QCDataPlus qc     implies   QShape (BType qc) (QType qc) (CType qc)
QCDataPlus qc     implies   QData (QType qc)
QCDataPlus qc     implies   CData (CType qc)
QCDataPlus qc     implies   BData (BType qc)

This is sometimes useful, for example, in the context of a function that inputs a QCData, measures all the qubits, and returns a CData. However, the additional information for the type checker comes at a price, which is drastically increased compilation time. Therefore QCDataPlus should only be used when QCData is insufficient.

Shape-related operations

Some Quipper functions, such as print_generic, require a shape parameter. A shape parameter is a parameter passed to a function for the sole purpose of specifying the type or size of some data structure, without actually specifying any data. Example: given a circuit

circuit :: ([Qubit], Bit) -> Circ Qubit,

the command

print_generic Preview circuit ([qubit,qubit,qubit], bit)

tells Quipper to preview the circuit for a problem size of 3 qubits and 1 bit.

bit :: Bit Source #

A dummy term of type Bit. It can be used in shape parameters (e.g., qc_init), as well as shape type parameters (e.g., qcdata_mapM).

qubit :: Qubit Source #

A dummy term of type Qubit. It can be used in shape parameters (e.g., qc_init), as well as shape type parameters (e.g., qcdata_mapM).

qshape :: QData qa => BType qa -> qa Source #

Return a quantum data structure of the given boolean shape, with every leaf initialized to the undefined dummy value qubit.

qc_false :: QCData qc => qc -> BType qc Source #

Return a boolean data structure of the given shape, with every leaf initialized to False.

Quantum type classes

Haskell provides many convenient type classes: Eq, Ord, Num, etc. Quipper provides quantum analogues of some of these. For instance, Haskell’s Eq a has the method

(==) :: a -> a -> Bool.  

Correspondingly, our QEq a qa ca has a method

q_is_equal :: qa -> qa -> Circ (qa,qa,Qubit).  

Similarly, where Haskell’s Num class has methods +, *, signum, the class QNum has q_add, q_mult, q_signum, and so on. (QNum is defined in Quipper.Libraries.Arith.)

All quantum type classes assume (a) that their instance types are QCData, and (b) that the corresponding classical parameter types are instances of the corresponding Haskell type classes.

Quantum type classes are designed to work well with the automatic circuit generation of Quipper.Internal.CircLifting: the methods of Haskell’s standard type classes are translated into their quantum analogues, where available.

type QEq qc = QCData qc Source #

This is a quantum analogue of Haskell’s Eq type class. Default implementations are provided; by default, equality is bitwise equality of the underlying data structure. However, specific instances can provide custom implementations. In this case, q_is_equal is a minimal complete definition.

q_is_equal :: QEq qc => qc -> qc -> Circ (qc, qc, Qubit) Source #

Test for equality.

q_is_not_equal :: QEq qc => qc -> qc -> Circ (qc, qc, Qubit) Source #

Test for inequality.

class (QEq qa, QData qa) => QOrd qa where Source #

This is a quantum analogue of Haskell's Ord type class. Its purpose is to define a total ordering on each of its instances. The functions in this class are assumed dirty in the sense that they do not uncompute ancillas, and some of the inputs may be returned as outputs. The functions are also assumed to be non-linear safe, i.e., they apply no gates to their inputs except as control sources. Minimal complete definition: q_less or q_greater. The default implementations of q_max and q_min assume that both arguments are of the same shape (for example, numbers of the same length).
