Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If conventional quantum circuit synthesis is used, then the quantum circuit can be generated, but the T-count is not minimized leading to increased resource requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by performing column reduction on the parity table before final circuit synthesis. The method determines a Boolean vector y satisfying L·y=0, transforms the parity table P to P′=P⊕zyT, and removes columns to reduce T-count before generating the final quantum circuit, thereby minimizing T gates in advance of execution
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes parameters by transforming the parity table through Boolean operations. Specifically, it modifies the parity table P by XORing with zyT to obtain P′, then removes columns to achieve P′′ with fewer columns, directly changing the structural parameters of the circuit representation to reduce T-count
2Quantity of substance
If the number of T gates is reduced, then resource requirements decrease, but the complexity of the optimization process increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the optimization problem into distinct mathematical steps: (1) generating the parity table P from the quantum circuit, (2) determining vector y satisfying L·y=0 where L contains rows PiΛPj, (3) computing P′=P⊕zyT, and (4) removing columns to obtain P′′. This segmentation transforms a complex optimization problem into manageable mathematical operations
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces mechanical trial-and-error circuit optimization with systematic Boolean algebra operations. Instead of manually adjusting circuits, the method uses deterministic Boolean matrix operations (XOR with zyT, column removal based on linear algebra constraints) to automatically minimize T-count
