LocallyOptimizableUnitary.optimize

abstract LocallyOptimizableUnitary.optimize(env_matrix)[source]

Return the optimal parameters with respect to an environment matrix.

More specifically, return the parameters that maximize the real component of the trace of the product between env_matrix and this unitary:

argmax(Re(Tr(\mathit{env\_matrix} \times \mathit{self.get\_unitary(params))}))

Parameters:

env_matrix (npt.NDArray[np.complex128]) – Optimize with respect to this matrix. Has the same dimensions as this unitary.

Returns:

The parameters that optimizes this unitary.

Return type:

list[float]
