In Cirq, how do I separate transpilation from execution in simulator.simulate()?
In Qiskit, there are explicit transpile [1] (where a circuit is transpiled to primitive gates) and backend.run [2] (where the ...

Reducing circuit initialization complexity
I'm encoding data into a QuantumCircuit via the Initialize method for QFTs. In doing this and transpiling for IonQ backends, I'm getting rather complex circuits. Is there a way to encode this data ...

What's the paper referenced by qiskit.compiler.transpile? My tranpile solution is wrong from the perspective of fidelity
Here I want to transpile a standard 3 qubit Quantum Fourier Transform circuit into a implementable circuit. The implementable 3 qubit circuit (qubit0, qubit1, qubit2) should have no SWAP gate and ...

Can W gate be written only using H,T?
I want to write the decompose the gate $W=(X+Y)/\sqrt{2}$ using only $H$ and $T$ (and all the derived Clifford gates basically). I know $H=(X+Z)/\sqrt{2}$ is it possible to obtain exactly $W$ from ...

Replace Gate with Known Identity in Quantum Circuit
I have a quantum circuit with 3 two-qubits gates XX, YY, and ZZ (as defined in the qiskit circuit library) with arbitrary angles on each gate. I'd like to replace the YY and ZZ gates with XXs. I know ...

Optimal decompositions of some standard multi-qubit gates
To have a concrete example in mind: 3-qubit Toffoli gate can be decomposed into 6 $CNOT$s as shown here
I believe this is the most economic decomposition in terms of the number of $CNOT$s used. My ...

How is quantum transpilation scaled?
While thinking about a quantum transpiler's working I had a pretty basic doubt. Say that we are trying to transpile an $n$ qubit circuit where $n > 100$. What transpiler does is that it first tries ...

How do you quantify the figurative 'cost' of a quantum circuit
Many gates are not available on a real computer and therefore the circuit must be transpiled into a specific set of gates. I have seen this equation below which is used to to determine the 'cost' of a ...

Transpilation on restricted topology does not yield an equivalent circuit in Qiskit
Here is an MWE: a simple circuit on three qubits with a CNOT acting on qubits 0 and 2. The coupling map prohibits a two-qubit gate between qubits 0 and 2 and so qubit 1 must get involved.
