• Abstract: CNOT circuits are a common building block of general quantum circuits. The problem of synthesizing and optimizing such circuits has received a lot of attention in the quantum computing literature. This problem is especially challenging for quantum devices with restricted connectivity, where two-qubit gates can only be placed between adjacent qubits. The state-of-the-art algorithms for optimizing the number of CNOT gates are heuristic algorithms that are based on Gaussian elimination and that use Steiner trees to connect between different subsets of qubits. In this article, we suggest considering weighted Steiner trees, and we present a simple low-cost heuristic to compute weights. The simulated evaluation shows that the suggested heuristic is almost always beneficial and reduces the number of CNOT gates by up to 10%.

  We develop AlphaTensor-Quantum, a method to minimize the number of T gates that are needed to implement a given circuit. Unlike existing methods for T-count optimization, AlphaTensor-Quantum can incorporate domain-specific knowledge about quantum computation and leverage gadgets. Remarkably, it discovers an efficient algorithm akin to Karatsuba's method for multiplication in finite fields.

  Given a unitary matrix that performs certain operation, obtaining the equivalent quantum circuit is a non-trivial task. Three problems are explored: the coin for the quantum walker, the Toffoli gate and the Fredkin gate. The algorithm proposed proved to be efficient in decomposition of quantum circuits, and as a generic approach, it is limited only by the available computational power.

  Connectivity of the physical qubits is one such constraint that restricts two-qubit operations, such as CNOT, to "connected" qubits. In this paper we consider the problem of reducing the CNOT-count in Clifford+T circuits on connectivity constrained architectures. We "slice" the circuit at the position of Hadamard gates and "build" the intermediate CNOT,T sub-circuits using Steiner trees.
