ListOp

class ListOp(oplist, combo_fn=None, coeff=1.0, abelian=False, grad_combo_fn=None)

Bases: OperatorBase

Deprecated: A Class for manipulating List Operators, and parent class to SummedOp, ComposedOp and TensoredOp.

List Operators are classes for storing and manipulating lists of Operators, State functions, or Measurements, and include some rule or combo_fn defining how the Operator functions of the list constituents should be combined to form to cumulative Operator function of the ListOp. For example, a SummedOp has an addition-based combo_fn, so once the Operators in its list are evaluated against some bitstring to produce a list of results, we know to add up those results to produce the final result of the SummedOp's evaluation. In theory, this combo_fn can be any function over classical complex values, but for convenience we've chosen for them to be defined over NumPy arrays and values. This way, large numbers of evaluations, such as after calling to_matrix on the list constituents, can be efficiently combined. While the combination function is defined over classical values, it should be understood as the operation by which each Operators' underlying function is combined to form the underlying Operator function of the ListOp. In this way, the ListOps are the basis for constructing large and sophisticated Operators, State Functions, and Measurements.

The base ListOp class is particularly interesting, as its combo_fn is "the identity list Operation". Meaning, if we understand the combo_fn as a function from a list of complex values to some output, one such function is returning the list as-is. This is powerful for constructing compact hierarchical Operators which return many measurements in multiple dimensional lists.

• oplist (Sequence[OperatorBase]) -- The list of OperatorBases defining this Operator's underlying function.

• combo_fn (Optional[Callable]) -- The recombination function to combine classical results of the oplist Operators' eval functions (e.g. sum). Default is lambda x: x.

• coeff (Union[complex, ParameterExpression]) -- A coefficient multiplying the operator

• abelian (bool) -- Indicates whether the Operators in oplist are known to mutually commute.

• grad_combo_fn (Optional[Callable]) -- The gradient of recombination function. If None, the gradient will be computed automatically.

• the (Note that the default "recombination function" lambda above is essentially) --

• values (identity - it accepts the list of) --

• list. (and returns them in a) --

Attributes

INDENTATION = '  '

abelian

Whether the Operators in oplist are known to commute with one another.

রিটার্নস

A bool indicating whether the oplist is Abelian.

coeff

The scalar coefficient multiplying the Operator.

রিটার্নস

The coefficient.

coeffs

Return a list of the coefficients of the operators listed. Raises exception for nested Listops.

combo_fn

The function defining how to combine oplist (or Numbers, or NumPy arrays) to produce the Operator's underlying function. For example, SummedOp's combination function is to add all of the Operators in oplist.

রিটার্নস

The combination function.

distributive

Indicates whether the ListOp or subclass is distributive under composition. ListOp and SummedOp are, meaning that (opv @ op) = (opv[0] @ op + opv[1] @ op) (using plus for SummedOp, list for ListOp, etc.), while ComposedOp and TensoredOp do not behave this way.

রিটার্নস

A bool indicating whether the ListOp is distributive under composition.

grad_combo_fn

The gradient of combo_fn.

instance_id

Return the unique instance id.

num_qubits

oplist

The list of OperatorBases defining the underlying function of this Operator.

রিটার্নস

The Operators defining the ListOp
