We present a general decomposition of the Generalized Toffoli, and for completeness, the multi-target gate using an arbitrary number of clean or dirty ancilla. While prior work has shown how to decompose the Generalized Toffoli using 0, 1, or $O(n)$ many clean ancilla and 0, 1, and $n-2$ dirty ancilla, we provide a generalized algorithm to bridge the gap, i.e. this work gives an algorithm to generate a decomposition for any number of clean or dirty ancilla. While it is hard to guarantee optimality, our decompositions guarantee a decrease in circuit depth as the number of ancilla increases.

We present methods for the direct characterization of quantum dynamics (DCQD) in which both the principal and ancilla systems undergo noisy processes. Using a concatenated error detection code, we discriminate between located and unlocated errors on the principal system in what amounts to filtering of ancilla noise. The example of composite noise involving amplitude damping and depolarizing channels is used to demonstrate the method, while we find the rate of noise filtering is more generally dependent on code distance. Our results indicate the accuracy of quantum process characterization can be greatly improved while remaining within reach of current experimental capabilities.
Ancilla systems are often indispensable to universal control of a nearly isolated quantum system. However, ancilla systems are typically more vulnerable to environmental noise, which limits the performance of such ancilla-assisted quantum control. To address this challenge of ancilla-induced decoherence, we propose a general framework that integrates quantum control and quantum error correction, so that we can achieve robust quantum gates resilient to ancilla noise. We introduce the path independence criterion for fault-tolerant quantum gates against ancilla errors. As an example, a path-independent gate is provided for superconducting circuits with a hardware-efficient design.
Efficiently entangling pairs of qubits is essential to fully harness the power of quantum computing. Here, we devise an exact protocol that simultaneously entangles arbitrary pairs of qubits on a trapped-ion quantum computer. The protocol requires classical computational resources polynomial in the system size, and very little overhead in the quantum control compared to a single-pair case. We demonstrate an exponential improvement in both classical and quantum resources over the current state of the art. We implement the protocol on a software-defined trapped-ion quantum computer, where we reconfigure the quantum computer architecture on demand. Together with the all-to-all connectivity available in trapped-ion quantum computers, our results establish that trapped ions are a prime candidate for a scalable quantum computing platform with minimal quantum latency.
Grovers Search algorithm was a breakthrough at the time it was introduced, and its underlying procedure of amplitude amplification has been a building block of many other algorithms and patterns for extracting information encoded in quantum states. In this paper, we introduce an optimization of the inversion-by-the-mean step of the algorithm. This optimization serves two purposes: from a practical perspective, it can lead to a performance improvement; from a theoretical one, it leads to a novel interpretation of the actual nature of this step. This step is a reflection, which is realized by (a) cancelling the superposition of a general state to revert to the original all-zeros state, (b) flipping the sign of the amplitude of the all-zeros state, and finally (c) reverting back to the superposition state. Rather than canceling the superposition, our approach allows for going forward to another state that makes the reflection easier. We validate our approach on set and array search, and confirm our results experimentally on real quantum hardware.
The practical use of many types of near-term quantum computers requires accounting for their limited connectivity. One way of overcoming limited connectivity is to insert swaps in the circuit so that logical operations can be performed on physically adjacent qubits, which we refer to as solving the `routing via matchings problem. We address the routing problem for families of quantum circuits defined by a hypergraph wherein each hyperedge corresponds to a potential gate. Our main result is that any unordered set of $k$-qubit gates on distinct $k$-qubit subsets of $n$ logical qubits can be ordered and parallelized in $O(n^{k-1})$ depth using a linear arrangement of $n$ physical qubits; the construction is completely general and achieves optimal scaling in the case where gates acting on all $binom{n}{k}$ sets of $k$ qubits are desired. We highlight two classes of problems for which our method is particularly useful. First, it applies to sets of mutually commuting gates, as in the (diagonal) phase separators of Quantum Alternating Operator Ansatz (Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm) circuits. For example, a single level of a QAOA circuit for Maximum Cut can be implemented in linear depth, and a single level for $3$-SAT in quadratic depth. Second, it applies to sets of gates that do not commute but for which compilation efficiency is the dominant criterion in their ordering. In particular, it can be adapted to Trotterized time-evolution of fermionic Hamiltonians under the Jordan-Wigner transformation, and also to non-standard mixers in QAOA. Using our method, a single Trotter step of the electronic structure Hamiltonian in an arbitrary basis of $n$ orbitals can be done in $O(n^3)$ depth while a Trotter step of the unitary coupled cluster singles and doubles method can be implemented in $O(n^2 eta)$ depth, where $eta$ is the number of electrons.
