ConstantUnitaryGate

class ConstantUnitaryGate

Bases: ConstantGate

An arbitrary constant unitary operator.

__init__(utry, radixes=[])

Construct a constant unitary operator.

Parameters:

• utry (UnitaryLike) – The operation as a unitary matrix.

• radixes (Sequence[int]) – The number of orthogonal states for each qudit this gate will act on. Defaults to qubits.

Attributes

dim	The matrix dimension for this unitary.
name	The name of this gate.
num_params	The number of real parameters this unitary-valued function takes.
num_qudits	The number of qudits this unitary can act on.
qasm_name	The qasm identifier for this gate.
radixes	The number of orthogonal states for each qudit.

Methods

check_env_matrix(env_matrix)	Check to ensure the env_matrix is validly shaped.

get_qasm(params, location)	Returns the qasm string for this gate.
get_qasm_gate_def()	Returns a qasm gate definition block for this gate.
get_unitary([params])	Return the unitary for this gate, see Unitary for more.
get_unitary_and_grad([params])	Return the unitary and gradient for this gate.

is_self_inverse([params])	Checks whether the unitary is its own inverse.
optimize(env_matrix)	Return the optimal parameters with respect to an environment matrix.
with_all_frozen_params(params)	Freeze all of a gate's parameters so they don't change from optimization.
with_frozen_params(frozen_params)	Freeze some of a gate's parameters so they don't change from optimization.
