The method is based on rounding off a unitary to a unitary over the ring Z[i,1/2–√] and employing exact synthesis. We also show that any n qubit unitary over the ring Z[i,1/2–√] with entries of the form (a+b2–√+ic+id2–√)/2k can be exactly synthesized using O(4nnk) Clifford and T gates using two ancillary qubits. This new exact synthesis algorithm is an improvement over the best known exact synthesis method by B. Giles and P. Selinger requiring O(32nnk) elementary gates.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/synthesis-of-unitaries-with-cliffordt-circuits/}, edition = {arxiv}, }
