Fast and efficient exact synthesis of single qubit unitaries generated by Clifford and T gates

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we show the equivalence of the set of unitaries computable by the circuits over the Clifford and T library and the set of unitaries over the ring Z[12,i]\mathbb{Z}[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}},i], in the single-qubit case. We report an efficient synthesis algorithm, with an exact optimality guarantee on the number of Hadamard and T gates used. We conjecture that the equivalence of the sets of unitaries implementable by circuits over the Clifford and T library and unitaries over the ring Z[12,i]\mathbb{Z}[\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}},i] holds in the nn-qubit case.
