abstract

We present an efficient addition circuit, borrowing techniques from the classical carry-lookahead arithmetic circuit. Our quantum carry-lookahead (QCLA) adder accepts two n-bit numbers and adds them in O(log n) depth using O(n) ancillary qubits. We present both in-place and out-of-place versions, as well as versions that add modulo 2^n and modulo 2^n - 1. Previously, the linear-depth ripple-carry addition circuit has been the method of choice. Our work reduces the cost of addition dramatically with only a slight increase in the number of required qubits. The QCLA adder can be used within current modular multiplication circuits to reduce substantially the run-time of Shor's algorithm.

Magic state cultivation: growing T states as cheap as CNOT gates

quant-ph · 2024-09-26 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Magic state cultivation prepares high-fidelity T states with an order of magnitude fewer qubit-rounds than prior distillation methods by gradually growing them within a surface code under depolarizing noise.

Quantum integer multiplier with O(log^2 n) circuit depth and T-depth via parallel partial products and binary adder tree in the Clifford+T model.

Efficient Gaussian State Preparation in Quantum Circuits

quant-ph · 2025-07-27 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

A quantum circuit prepares approximate Gaussian states via single-qubit rotations followed by QFT, achieving high fidelity with optional angle pruning for O(n) gate cost.
