• Abstract: Two applications of gates from the B gate equivalence class can generate all two-qubit gates. This local equivalence class is invariant under the mirror (multiplication with the SWAP gate) operation, inverse (Hermitian conjugate) operation, and the combined inverse and mirror operations. The last two symmetries are associated with the ability of a two-qubit gate to generate the two-qubit local gates and the SWAP gate in two applications. No single local equivalence class of two-qubit gates, except the B gate equivalence class, has these two symmetries. Only the planar regions of the Weyl chamber, describing the mirror operation, contain the local equivalence classes with either one of the two symmetries. We show that there exist one-parameter families of local equivalence classes on these planes, with and without the B gate equivalence class, such that each of them can be used to construct a parameterized universal two-qubit quantum circuit that involves only two nonlocal two-qubit gates. We also discuss the implementation of the gates from a few families of local equivalence classes on superconducting quantum computers for optimal generation of all two-qubit gates.

  It is advantageous for any quantum processor to support different classes of two-qubit quantum logic gates when compiling quantum circuits.<n>Access to a gate set that includes support for the CZ-type, affirming the iSWAP-type, and the SWAP-type families of gates, renders conversions between these gate families unnecessary during compilation.<n>We experimentally demonstrate that a SWAP gate can be decomposed into one iSWAP gate followed by one CZ gate, a more efficient compilation strategy.

  We propose an alternative paradigm for the symmetry-informed construction of variational quantum circuits. We achieve this by introducing horizontal quantum gates, which only transform the state with respect to the directions to those of the symmetry. For a particular subclass of horizontal gates based on symmetric spaces, we can obtain efficient circuit decompositions for our gates through the KAK theorem.

  High-fidelity single- and two-qubit gates are essential building blocks for a fault-tolerant quantum computer.

We experimentally demonstrate that it can be exploited to produce a universal set of fast single- and two-qubit entangling gates.

• Random quantum circuits anti-concentrate in log depth [118.18170052022323]
  We study the number of gates needed for the distribution over measurement outcomes for typical circuit instances to be anti-concentrated. Our definition of anti-concentration is that the expected collision probability is only a constant factor larger than if the distribution were uniform. In both the case where the gates are nearest-neighbor on a 1D ring and the case where gates are long-range, we show $O(n log(n)) gates are also sufficient.
