  • Abstract
    Any matrix of the unitary group U(n) can (up to a global phase) be decomposed into 2n-1 matrices from two subgroups, denoted XU(n) and ZU(n). This leads to the decomposition of an arbitrary quantum circuit into NEGATOR circuits and PHASOR circuits. The NEGATOR circuits are closely related to classical reversible computation.
