Implements a quadratic form on binary variables encoded in qubit registers.

A quadratic form on binary variables is a quadratic function $$Q$$ acting on a binary variable of $$n$$ bits, $$x = x_0 ... x_{n-1}$$. For an integer matrix $$A$$, an integer vector $$b$$ and an integer $$c$$ the function can be written as

$Q(x) = x^T A x + x^T b + c$

If $$A$$, $$b$$ or $$c$$ contain scalar values, this circuit computes only an approximation of the quadratic form.

Provided with $$m$$ qubits to encode the value, this circuit computes $$Q(x) \mod 2^m$$ in [two’s complement](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1049722/what-is-2s-complement) representation.

$|x\rangle_n |0\rangle_m \mapsto |x\rangle_n |(Q(x) + 2^m) \mod 2^m \rangle_m$

Since we use two’s complement e.g. the value of $$Q(x) = 3$$ requires 2 bits to represent the value and 1 bit for the sign: 3 = 〈011〉 where the first 0 indicates a positive value. On the other hand, $$Q(x) = -3$$ would be -3 = 〈101〉, where the first 1 indicates a negative value and 01 is the two’s complement of 3.

If the value of $$Q(x)$$ is too large to be represented with m qubits, the resulting bitstring is $$(Q(x) + 2^m) \mod 2^m)$$.

The implementation of this circuit is discussed in [1], Fig. 6.

매개변수
• num_result_qubits (Optional[int]) – The number of qubits to encode the result. Called $$m$$ in the class documentation.

• quadratic (Union[ndarray, List[List[Union[float, ParameterExpression]]], None]) – A matrix containing the quadratic coefficients, $$A$$.

• linear (Union[ndarray, List[Union[float, ParameterExpression]], None]) – An array containing the linear coefficients, $$b$$.

• offset (Union[float, ParameterExpression, None]) – A constant offset, $$c$$.

• little_endian (bool) – Encode the result in little endianness.

예외 발생
• ValueError – If linear and quadratic have mismatching sizes.

• ValueError – If num_result_qubits is unspecified but cannot be determined because some values of the quadratic form are parameterized.

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.

parameters

The parameters defined in the circuit.

This attribute returns the Parameter objects in the circuit sorted alphabetically. Note that parameters instantiated with a ParameterVector are still sorted numerically.

예제

The snippet below shows that insertion order of parameters does not matter.

>>> from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Parameter
>>> a, b, elephant = Parameter("a"), Parameter("b"), Parameter("elephant")
>>> circuit = QuantumCircuit(1)
>>> circuit.rx(b, 0)
>>> circuit.rz(elephant, 0)
>>> circuit.ry(a, 0)
>>> circuit.parameters  # sorted alphabetically!
ParameterView([Parameter(a), Parameter(b), Parameter(elephant)])


Bear in mind that alphabetical sorting might be unituitive when it comes to numbers. The literal 《10》 comes before 《2》 in strict alphabetical sorting.

>>> from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Parameter
>>> angles = [Parameter("angle_1"), Parameter("angle_2"), Parameter("angle_10")]
>>> circuit = QuantumCircuit(1)
>>> circuit.u(*angles, 0)
>>> circuit.draw()
┌─────────────────────────────┐
q: ┤ U(angle_1,angle_2,angle_10) ├
└─────────────────────────────┘
>>> circuit.parameters
ParameterView([Parameter(angle_1), Parameter(angle_10), Parameter(angle_2)])


To respect numerical sorting, a ParameterVector can be used.



>>> from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Parameter, ParameterVector
>>> x = ParameterVector("x", 12)
>>> circuit = QuantumCircuit(1)
>>> for x_i in x:
...     circuit.rx(x_i, 0)
>>> circuit.parameters
ParameterView([
ParameterVectorElement(x[0]), ParameterVectorElement(x[1]),
ParameterVectorElement(x[2]), ParameterVectorElement(x[3]),
..., ParameterVectorElement(x[11])
])
