Phase-context decomposition of diagonal unitaries for higher-dimensional systems
Phase-context decomposition of diagonal unitaries for higher-dimensional systems
We generalize the efficient decomposition method for phase-sparse diagonal operators of J. Welch et al. [Quantum Info. Comput. 16, 87 (2016)] to qudit systems. The phase-context-aware method focuses on cascaded entanglers, whose decomposition into multicontrolled inc gates can be optimized by the choice of a proper signed base-$d$ representation for …
