Circuit Library

qiskit.circuit.library

The circuit library is a collection of well-studied and valuable circuits, directives, and gates. We call them valuable for different reasons, for instance they can serve as building blocks for algorithms or they are circuits that we think are hard to simulate classically.

Each element can be plugged into a circuit using the QuantumCircuit.append() method and so the circuit library allows users to program at higher levels of abstraction. For example, to append a multi-controlled CNOT:

from qiskit.circuit.library import MCXGate
gate = MCXGate(4)
 
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
circuit = QuantumCircuit(5)
circuit.append(gate, [0, 1, 4, 2, 3])
circuit.draw('mpl')

The library is organized in several sections.


Standard gates

These operations are reversible unitary gates and they all subclass Gate. As a consequence, they all have the methods to_matrix(), power(), and control(), which we can generally only apply to unitary operations.

For example:

from qiskit.circuit.library import XGate
gate = XGate()
print(gate.to_matrix())             # X gate
print(gate.power(1/2).to_matrix())  # √X gate
print(gate.control(1).to_matrix())  # CX (controlled X) gate
[[0.+0.j 1.+0.j]
 [1.+0.j 0.+0.j]]
[[0.5+0.5j 0.5-0.5j]
 [0.5-0.5j 0.5+0.5j]]
[[1.+0.j 0.+0.j 0.+0.j 0.+0.j]
 [0.+0.j 0.+0.j 0.+0.j 1.+0.j]

Templates are functions that return circuits that compute the identity. They are used at circuit optimization where matching part of the template allows the compiler to replace the match with the inverse of the remainder from the template.

In this example, the identity constant in a template is checked:

from qiskit.quantum_info import Operator
import numpy as np
 
template = template_nct_4b_1()
 
identity = np.identity(2 ** len(template.qubits), dtype=complex)
data = Operator(template).data
np.allclose(data, identity)  # True, template_nct_4b_1 is the identity
