• Abstract: Universal gate sets for quantum computation, when single and two qubit operations are accessible, include both Hermitian and non-Hermitian gates. Here we show that any single-qubit operator may be implemented as two Hermitian gates, and thus a purely Hermitian universal set is possible. An implementational convenience can be that non-identity single-qubit Hermitian gates are equivalent to pi rotations up to a global phase. We show that a gate set comprised of pi rotations about two fixed axes, along with the CNOT gate, is universal for quantum computation. Moreover, we show that two pi rotations can transform the axis of any multi-controlled unitary, a special case being a single CNOT sufficing for any controlled pi rotation. These gates simplify the process of circuit compilation in view of their Hermitian nature. Further, the insights are used to design an efficient circuit for a controlled-U(4) gate with any arbitrary operator on two target qubits.
