RYGate

RYGate(theta, label=None) GitHub(opens in a new tab)

Bases: qiskit.circuit.gate.Gate

Single-qubit rotation about the Y axis.

Can be applied to a QuantumCircuit with the ry() method.

Circuit symbol:

     ┌───────┐
q_0:Ry(ϴ)
     └───────┘

Matrix Representation:

RY(θ)=exp(iθ2Y)=(cosθ2sinθ2sinθ2cosθ2) \providecommand{\th}{\frac{\theta}{2}}\\\begin{split}RY(\theta) = \exp\left(-i \th Y\right) = \begin{pmatrix} \cos{\th} & -\sin{\th} \\ \sin{\th} & \cos{\th} \end{pmatrix}\end{split}

Create new RY gate.


Methods Defined Here

control

RYGate.control(num_ctrl_qubits=1, label=None, ctrl_state=None)

Return a (multi-)controlled-RY gate.

Parameters

  • num_ctrl_qubits (int) – number of control qubits.
  • label (str or None) – An optional label for the gate [Default: None]
  • ctrl_state (int or str or None) – control state expressed as integer, string (e.g. ‘110’), or None. If None, use all 1s.

Returns

controlled version of this gate.

Return type

ControlledGate

inverse

RYGate.inverse()

Return inverted RY gate.

RY(λ)=RY(λ)RY(\lambda){\dagger} = RY(-\lambda)

power

RYGate.power(exponent)

Raise gate to a power.
