Quantum State Preparation with Optimal Circuit Depth: Implementations and Applications

Abstract: Quantum state preparation is an important subroutine for quantum computing. We show that any 𝑛-qubit quantum state can be prepared with a Θ(𝑛)-depth circuit using only single-and two-qubit gates, although with a cost of an exponential amount of ancillary qubits. On the other hand, for sparse quantum states with 𝑑 2 nonzero entries, we can reduce the circuit depth to Θ(log(𝑛𝑑)) with 𝑂 (𝑛𝑑 log 𝑑) ancillary qubits. The algorithm for sparse states is exponentially faster than best-known results and the nu… Show more

“…where N is the normalization factor, N = 2 n , |j is a standard basis vector with j ∈ {0, 1, ..., N βˆ’ 1}, and x j is the j th grid point in a uniform discretization of the interval [a, b]-while we later remark that non-uniform grid spacings may sometimes be advantageous. In general, preparing an arbitrary state in a Hilbert space of n qubits requires exponential complexity as the dimension of the space grows exponentially in n [17,20]. However, the algorithm we are about to present demonstrates that the very general set of states of the form shown in Eq.…”

“…Unfortunately, a quantum circuit capable of producing an arbitrary quantum state necessitates exponential complexity in general [17], although recent works have shown that the exponential circuit depth cost can actually be made linear in exchange for utilizing an exponential number of ancillary qubits [18][19][20]. As a result, in practice, it is essential to exploit specific properties of the state being produced.…”

“…Later, Rosenthal independently constructed a QSP circuit of depth O(n) using O(n2 n ) ancillary qubits [Ros21]. This year, [ZLY22] gave yet another proof of the O(n) depth upper bound using O(2 n ) ancillary qubits. Both [Ros21] and [ZLY22] did not give results for general m.…”

“…Here the cost is quantified by the number of required CNOT gates, as any quantum circuit can be decomposed into CNOT gates and single-qubit gates and the number of single-qubit gates is upper bounded by twice the number of CNOTs [13]. In this work, we focus on algorithms that prepare quantum states in a deterministic manner with no or fixed ancillary qubit overhead, instead of approximate algorithms [14][15][16] or algorithms with n-dependent ancilla size [17][18][19].…”
