Synthesis of quantum arrays with low quantum costs from Kronecker Functional Lattice Diagrams

Dipal Shah, Marek A. Perkowski · 2010

Reversible logic has many applications such as Quantum computing, low power CMOS circuit design, Optical computing. Hence reversible logic synthesis has attracted attention especially in quantum computing community. A logic function is reversible if it is a one-to-one mapping between input and output vectors. In this paper we present a new approach to synthesis of reversible circuits using Kronecker Functional Lattice Diagrams. Unlike other contemporary algorithms for synthesis of reversible function that use n × n Toffoli gates, our method invariably synthesizes functions using only 3×3 Toffoli gates, Feynman gates and NOT gates. This reduces the quantum cost. Our method adds small cost by adding extra ancilla bits. Moreover, our circuits are always (4-neighbors) regular, which is an asset when they are mapped to 2-Dimensional arrays in Ion Trap (quantum) technology.
