In quantum computation every unitary operation can be decomposed into quantum circuits-a series of single-qubit rotations and a single type entangling two-qubit gates, such as controlled-NOT (CNOT) gates. Two measures are important when…

We show how to construct an arbitrary robust one-qubit unitary operation with a control Hamiltonian of $A_x(t) \sigma_x + A_y(t) \sigma_y$, where $\sigma_i$ is a Pauli matrix and $A_i(t)$ is piecewise constant. Our method, based on planar…

While the question ``how many CNOT gates are needed to simulate an arbitrary two-qubit operator'' has been conclusively answered -- three are necessary and sufficient -- previous work on this topic assumes that one wants to simulate a given…
Controlled unitary gates are a basic element in many quantum algorithms. Converting a general unitary $U$ with a known decomposition into its controlled version, controlled-$U$, can introduce a large overhead in terms of the depth of the…
