Complexity of graph-state preparation by Clifford circuits
arxiv(2024)
摘要
In this work, we study a complexity of graph-state preparation. We consider
general quantum algorithms consisting of the Clifford operations on at most two
qubits for graph-state preparations. We define the CZ-complexity of graph state
|G⟩ as the minimum number of two-qubit Clifford operations (excluding
single-qubit Clifford operations) for generating |G⟩ from a trivial
state |0⟩^⊗ n. We first prove that a graph state |G⟩ is
generated by at most t two-qubit Clifford operations if and only if
|G⟩ is generated by at most t controlled-Z (CZ) operations. We next
prove that a graph state |G⟩ is generated from another graph state
|H⟩ by t CZ operations if and only if the graph G is generated from
H by some combinatorial graph transformation with cost t. As the main
results, we show a connection between the CZ-complexity of graph state
|G⟩ and the rank-width of the graph G. Indeed, we prove that for any
graph G with n vertices and rank-width r,
1. The CZ-complexity of |G⟩ is O(rnlog n).
2. If G is connected, the CZ-complexity of |G⟩ is at least n + r -
2.
We also show the existence of graph states whose CZ-complexities are close to
the upper and lower bounds. Finally, we present quantum algorithms preparing
|G⟩ with O(n) CZ-complexity when G is included in special classes
of graphs, namely, cographs, interval graphs, permutation graphs and circle
graphs.
