Controlled operations are fundamental building blocks of quantum algorithms. Decomposing $n$-control-NOT gates ($C^n(X)$) into arbitrary single-qubit and CNOT gates, is a crucial but non-trivial task. This study introduces $C^n(X)$ circuits…

We prove two new upper bounds for depth-2 linear circuits computing the $N$th disjointness matrix $D^{\otimes N}$. First, we obtain a circuit of size $O\big(2^{1.24485N}\big)$ over $\{0,1\}$. Second, we obtain a circuit of degree…
