Methods

all_measurement_key_names

all_measurement_key_names() -> FrozenSet[str]

Returns the set of all measurement key names in this circuit.

Returns: FrozenSet of strings that are the measurement key names in this circuit.

all_measurement_key_objs

all_measurement_key_objs() -> FrozenSet['cirq.MeasurementKey']

all_operations

all_operations() -> Iterator['cirq.Operation']

Returns an iterator over the operations in the circuit.

Returns: Iterator over cirq.Operation elements found in this circuit.

all_qubits

all_qubits() -> FrozenSet['cirq.Qid']

Returns the qubits acted upon by Operations in this circuit.

Returns: FrozenSet of cirq.Qid objects acted on by all operations in this circuit.

append

append(
    moment_or_operation_tree: Union['cirq.Moment', 'cirq.OP_TREE'],
    strategy: 'cirq.InsertStrategy' = InsertStrategy.EARLIEST
) -> None

Appends operations onto the end of the circuit.

Moments within the operation tree are appended intact.

are_all_matches_terminal

are_all_matches_terminal(
    predicate: Callable[['cirq.Operation'], bool]
) -> bool

Check whether all of the ops that satisfy a predicate are terminal.

This method will transparently descend into any CircuitOperations this circuit contains; as a result, it will misbehave if the predicate refers to CircuitOperations. See the tests for an example of this.

are_all_measurements_terminal

are_all_measurements_terminal() -> bool

Whether all measurement gates are at the end of the circuit.

Returns: True iff no measurement is followed by a gate.

are_any_matches_terminal

are_any_matches_terminal(
    predicate: Callable[['cirq.Operation'], bool]
) -> bool

Check whether any of the ops that satisfy a predicate are terminal.

This method will transparently descend into any CircuitOperations this circuit contains; as a result, it will misbehave if the predicate refers to CircuitOperations. See the tests for an example of this.

are_any_measurements_terminal

are_any_measurements_terminal() -> bool

Whether any measurement gates are at the end of the circuit.

Returns: True iff some measurements are not followed by a gate.

batch_insert

batch_insert(
    insertions: Iterable[Tuple[int, 'cirq.OP_TREE']]
) -> None

Applies a batched insert operation to the circuit.

Transparently handles the fact that earlier insertions may shift the index that later insertions should occur at. For example, if you insert an operation at index 2 and at index 4, but the insert at index 2 causes a new moment to be created, then the insert at "4" will actually occur at index 5 to account for the shift from the new moment.

All insertions are done with the strategy cirq.InsertStrategy.EARLIEST.

When multiple inserts occur at the same index, the gates from the later inserts end up before the gates from the earlier inserts (exactly as if you'd called list.insert several times with the same index: the later inserts shift the earliest inserts forward).

batch_insert_into

batch_insert_into(
    insert_intos: Iterable[Tuple[int, 'cirq.OP_TREE']]
) -> None

Inserts operations into empty spaces in existing moments.

If any of the insertions fails (due to colliding with an existing operation), this method fails without making any changes to the circuit.

batch_remove

batch_remove(
    removals: Iterable[Tuple[int, 'cirq.Operation']]
) -> None

Removes several operations from a circuit.

batch_replace

batch_replace(
    replacements: Iterable[Tuple[int, 'cirq.Operation', 'cirq.Operation']]
) -> None

Replaces several operations in a circuit with new operations.

clear_operations_touching

clear_operations_touching(
    qubits: Iterable['cirq.Qid'], moment_indices: Iterable[int]
)

Clears operations that are touching given qubits at given moments.

concat_ragged

concat_ragged(
    *circuits, align: Union['cirq.Alignment', str] = Alignment.LEFT
) -> 'cirq.Circuit'

Concatenates circuits, overlapping them if possible due to ragged edges.

Starts with the first circuit (index 0), then iterates over the other circuits while folding them in. To fold two circuits together, they are placed one after the other and then moved inward until just before their operations would collide. If any of the circuits do not share qubits and so would not collide, the starts or ends of the circuits will be aligned, acording to the given align parameter.

Beware that this method is not associative. For example:

<pre class="devsite-click-to-copy prettyprint lang-py">
<code class="devsite-terminal" data-terminal-prefix="&gt;&gt;&gt;">a, b = cirq.LineQubit.range(2)</code>
<code class="devsite-terminal" data-terminal-prefix="&gt;&gt;&gt;">A = cirq.Circuit(cirq.H(a))</code>
<code class="devsite-terminal" data-terminal-prefix="&gt;&gt;&gt;">B = cirq.Circuit(cirq.H(b))</code>
<code class="devsite-terminal" data-terminal-prefix="&gt;&gt;&gt;">f = cirq.Circuit.concat_ragged</code>
<code class="devsite-terminal" data-terminal-prefix="&gt;&gt;&gt;">f(f(A, B), A) == f(A, f(B, A))</code>
<code class="no-select nocode">    False</code>
<code class="devsite-terminal" data-terminal-prefix="&gt;&gt;&gt;">len(f(f(f(A, B), A), B)) == len(f(f(A, f(B, A)), B))</code>
<code class="no-select nocode">    False</code>
<code class="no-select nocode">    </code>
</pre>

copy

copy() -> 'Circuit'

Return a copy of this circuit.

earliest_available_moment

earliest_available_moment(
    op: 'cirq.Operation', *, end_moment_index: Optional[int] = None
) -> int

Finds the index of the earliest (i.e. left most) moment which can accommodate op.

Note that, unlike circuit.prev_moment_operating_on, this method also takes care of implicit dependencies between measurements and classically controlled operations (CCO) that depend on the results of those measurements. Therefore, using this method, a CCO op would not be allowed to move left past a measurement it depends upon.

factorize

factorize() -> Iterable[CIRCUIT_TYPE]

Factorize circuit into a sequence of independent circuits (factors).

Factorization is possible when the circuit's qubits can be divided into two or more independent qubit sets. Preserves the moments from the original circuit. If this is not possible, returns the set consisting of the single circuit (this one).

q0, q1, q2 = cirq.LineQubit.range(3)
circuit = cirq.Circuit()
circuit.append(cirq.Moment(cirq.H(q2)))
circuit.append(cirq.Moment(cirq.CZ(q0,q1)))
circuit.append(cirq.H(q0))
print(circuit)
0: ───────@───H───
          │
1: ───────@───────
<BLANKLINE>
2: ───H───────────
for i, f in enumerate(circuit.factorize()):
    print("Factor {}".format(i))
    print(f)

Factor 0
0: ───────@───H───
          │
1: ───────@───────
Factor 1
2: ───H───────────

final_state_vector

final_state_vector(
    *,
    initial_state: 'cirq.STATE_VECTOR_LIKE' = 0,
    qubit_order: 'cirq.QubitOrderOrList' = ops.QubitOrder.DEFAULT,
    ignore_terminal_measurements: bool = False,
    dtype: Type[np.complexfloating] = np.complex128,
    param_resolver: 'cirq.ParamResolverOrSimilarType' = None,
    seed: 'cirq.RANDOM_STATE_OR_SEED_LIKE' = None
) -> np.ndarray

Returns the state vector resulting from acting operations on a state.

This is equivalent to calling cirq.final_state_vector with the same arguments and this circuit as the "program".

findall_operations

findall_operations(
    predicate: Callable[['cirq.Operation'], bool]
) -> Iterable[Tuple[int, 'cirq.Operation']]

Find the locations of all operations that satisfy a given condition.

This returns an iterator of (index, operation) tuples where each operation satisfies op_cond(operation) is truthy. The indices are in order of the moments and then order of the ops within that moment.

findall_operations_between

findall_operations_between(
    start_frontier: Dict['cirq.Qid', int],
    end_frontier: Dict['cirq.Qid', int],
    omit_crossing_operations: bool = False
) -> List[Tuple[int, 'cirq.Operation']]

Finds operations between the two given frontiers.

If a qubit is in start_frontier but not end_frontier, its end index defaults to the end of the circuit. If a qubit is in end_frontier but not start_frontier, its start index defaults to the start of the circuit. Operations on qubits not mentioned in either frontier are not included in the results.

findall_operations_until_blocked

findall_operations_until_blocked(
    start_frontier: Dict['cirq.Qid', int],
    is_blocker: Callable[['cirq.Operation'], bool] = (lambda op: False)
) -> List[Tuple[int, 'cirq.Operation']]

Finds all operations until a blocking operation is hit.

An operation is considered blocking if both of the following hold:

• It is in the 'light cone' of start_frontier.
• is_blocker returns a truthy value, or it acts on a blocked qubit

Every qubit acted on by a blocking operation is thereafter itself blocked.

The notion of reachability here differs from that in reachable_frontier_from in two respects:

• An operation is not considered blocking only because it is in a moment before the start_frontier of one of the qubits on which it acts.
• Operations that act on qubits not in start_frontier are not automatically blocking.

For every (moment_index, operation) returned:

• moment_index >= min((start_frontier[q] for q in operation.qubits if q in start_frontier), default=0)
• set(operation.qubits).intersection(start_frontier)

Below are some examples, where on the left the opening parentheses show start_frontier and on the right are the operations included (with their moment indices) in the output. F and T indicate that is_blocker return False or True, respectively, when applied to the gates; M indicates that it doesn't matter.

    strategy: 'cirq.InsertStrategy' = InsertStrategy.EARLIEST
) -> int

insert_at_frontier

    start: int,
    frontier: Dict['cirq.Qid', int] = None

    qubit_order: 'cirq.QubitOrderOrList' = ops.QubitOrder.DEFAULT
) -> Tuple[int, ...]

Returns: A tuple containing the dimensions (shape) of all qudits found in this circuit according to qubit_order.

reachable_frontier_from

reachable_frontier_from(
    start_frontier: Dict['cirq.Qid', int],
    *,
    is_blocker: Callable[['cirq.Operation'], bool] = (lambda op: False)
) -> Dict['cirq.Qid', int]

Determines how far can be reached into a circuit under certain rules.

The location L = (qubit, moment_index) is reachable if and only if the following all hold true:

• There is not a blocking operation covering L.
• At least one of the following holds:
  • qubit is in start frontier and moment_index = max(start_frontier[qubit], 0).
  • There is no operation at L and prev(L) = (qubit, moment_index-1) is reachable.
  • There is an (non-blocking) operation P covering L such that (q', moment_index - 1) is reachable for every q' on which P acts.

An operation in moment moment_index is blocking if at least one of the following hold:

• is_blocker returns a truthy value.
• The operation acts on a qubit not in start_frontier.
• The operation acts on a qubit q such that start_frontier[q] > moment_index.

In other words, the reachable region extends forward through time along each qubit in start_frontier until it hits a blocking operation. Any location involving a qubit not in start_frontier is unreachable.

For each qubit q in start_frontier, the reachable locations will correspond to a contiguous range starting at start_frontier[q] and ending just before some index end_q. The result of this method is a dictionary, and that dictionary maps each qubit q to its end_q.

Examples:

If start_frontier is

{
    cirq.LineQubit(0): 6,
    cirq.LineQubit(1): 2,
    cirq.LineQubit(2): 2
}

then the reachable wire locations in the following circuit are highlighted with '█' characters:

        0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10  11  12  13
    0: ───H───@─────────────────█████████████████████─@───H───
              │                                       │
    1: ───────@─██H███@██████████████████████─@───H───@───────
                      │                       │
    2: ─────────██████@███H██─@───────@───H───@───────────────
                              │       │
    3: ───────────────────────@───H───@───────────────────────

And the computed end_frontier is

{
    cirq.LineQubit(0): 11,
    cirq.LineQubit(1): 9,
    cirq.LineQubit(2): 6,
}

Note that the frontier indices (shown above the circuit) are best thought of (and shown) as happening between moment indices.

If we specify a blocker as follows:

is_blocker=lambda: op == cirq.CZ(cirq.LineQubit(1),
                                 cirq.LineQubit(2))

and use this start_frontier:

{
    cirq.LineQubit(0): 0,
    cirq.LineQubit(1): 0,
    cirq.LineQubit(2): 0,
    cirq.LineQubit(3): 0,
}

Then this is the reachable area:

        0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   10  11  12  13

and the computed end_frontier is:

{
    cirq.LineQubit(0): 11,
    cirq.LineQubit(1): 3,
    cirq.LineQubit(2): 3,
    cirq.LineQubit(3): 5,

        'cirq.CircuitDiagramInfo']] = None
) -> 'cirq.TextDiagramDrawer'

Returns a TextDiagramDrawer with the circuit drawn into it.

transform_qubits

    qubit_map: Union[Dict['cirq.Qid', 'cirq.Qid'], Callable[['cirq.Qid'], 'cirq.Qid']]
) -> 'cirq.Circuit'

Returns the same circuit, but with different qubits.

zip

zip(
    *circuits, align: Union['cirq.Alignment', str] = Alignment.LEFT
) -> 'cirq.Circuit'

Combines operations from circuits in a moment-by-moment fashion.

Moment k of the resulting circuit will have all operations from moment k of each of the given circuits.

When the given circuits have different lengths, the shorter circuits are implicitly padded with empty moments. This differs from the behavior of python's built-in zip function, which would instead truncate the longer circuits.

The zipped circuits can't have overlapping operations occurring at the same moment index.

Examples:

import cirq
a, b, c, d = cirq.LineQubit.range(4)

Return self==value.

__getitem__

__getitem__(

__iter__

__iter__() -> Iterator['cirq.Moment']

__len__

__len__() -> int

__mul__

__mul__(
    repetitions: _INT_TYPE

__ne__

__ne__(
    other
) -> bool

Return self!=value.

__pow__

__pow__(
    exponent: int
) -> 'cirq.Circuit'

A circuit raised to a power, only valid for exponent -1, the inverse.

This will fail if anything other than -1 is passed to the Circuit by returning NotImplemented. Otherwise this will return the inverse circuit, which is the circuit with its moment order reversed and for every moment all the moment's operations are replaced by its inverse. If any of the operations do not support inverse, NotImplemented will be returned.
