Quantum Rounding

Rajiv Krishnakumar, William Zeng  ·  Published 2021-08-12

Abstract

We introduce new rounding methods to improve the accuracy of finite precision quantum arithmetic. These quantum rounding methods are applicable when multiple samples are being taken from a quantum program. We show how to use multiple samples to stochastically suppress arithmetic error from rounding. We benchmark these methods on the multiplication of fixed-point numbers stored in quantum registers. We show that the gate counts and depths for multiplying to a target accuracy can be reduced by approximately 2-3X over state of the art methods while using roughly the same number of qubits.
