Exact Unitary Synthesis: Simultaneously Optimal in Size and Depth-Ancilla Tradeoff

Unitary synthesis underlies universal quantum computation by translating unitary transformations into circuits of elementary gates. We show that for any budget $m\geq 0$ of ancilla, every $n$-qubit unitary can be exactly implemented using a quantum circuit consisting of $O(4^n)$ CNOT and single-qubit gates in $O(n+4^n/...

Phantom Codes: Hardness, Rate Optimal qLDPC Constructions, and Distance Limits

An $[[n,k,d]]$ stabilizer code is phantom if every in-block logical CNOT gate can be realized by a permutation of its physical qubits. This eliminates the large and complicated physical overhead normally required for logical entangling gates. Yet this symmetry is highly restrictive: phantom codes are rare, the number o...

Quantum Circuit for General Unitary: Improved T-count via Block Flattening and Dilation

A Clifford+T quantum circuit construction that approximately implements any classically specified unitary to within error $\epsilon$ and achieves a worst-case $T$-count with leading exponential scaling of $2^{5n/4}$ whenever $\log(1/\epsilon)=\operatorname{poly}(n)$.
