Bases : BlueprintCircuit

A circuit to compute the weighted sum of qubit registers.

Given $$n$$ qubit basis states $$q_0, \ldots, q_{n-1} \in \{0, 1\}$$ and non-negative integer weights $$\lambda_0, \ldots, \lambda_{n-1}$$, this circuit performs the operation

$|q_0 \ldots q_{n-1}\rangle |0\rangle_s \mapsto |q_0 \ldots q_{n-1}\rangle |\sum_{j=0}^{n-1} \lambda_j q_j\rangle_s$

where $$s$$ is the number of sum qubits required. This can be computed as

$s = 1 + \left\lfloor \log_2\left( \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} \lambda_j \right) \right\rfloor$

or $$s = 1$$ if the sum of the weights is 0 (then the expression in the logarithm is invalid).

For qubits in a circuit diagram, the first weight applies to the upper-most qubit. For an example where the state of 4 qubits is added into a sum register, the circuit can be schematically drawn as

           ┌────────┐
state_0: ┤0       ├ | state_0 * weights[0]
│        │ |
state_1: ┤1       ├ | + state_1 * weights[1]
│        │ |
state_2: ┤2       ├ | + state_2 * weights[2]
│        │ |
state_3: ┤3       ├ | + state_3 * weights[3]
│        │
sum_0: ┤4       ├ |
sum_1: ┤5       ├ | = sum_0 * 2^0 + sum_1 * 2^1 + sum_2 * 2^2
│        │ |
sum_2: ┤6       ├ |
│        │
carry_0: ┤7       ├
│        │
carry_1: ┤8       ├
│        │
control_0: ┤9       ├
└────────┘


Computes the weighted sum controlled by state qubits.

The user provided metadata associated with the circuit

The metadata for the circuit is a user provided dict of metadata for the circuit. It will not be used to influence the execution or operation of the circuit, but it is expected to be passed between all transforms of the circuit (ie transpilation) and that providers will associate any circuit metadata with the results it returns from execution of that circuit.
