synth_clifford_greedy(clifford)

Decompose a Clifford operator into a QuantumCircuit based on the greedy Clifford compiler that is described in Appendix A of Bravyi, Hu, Maslov and Shaydulin.

This method typically yields better CX cost compared to the Aaronson-Gottesma method.

매개변수

clifford (Clifford) – a clifford operator.

반환

a circuit implementation of the Clifford.

반환 형식

QuantumCircuit

예외 발생

QiskitError – if symplectic Gaussian elimination fails.
