Abstract: A method and a quantum circuit operate by: applying, via Hadamard gates of the quantum circuit, Hadamard transforms to qubits in corresponding initial states; sequentially calling, via weighted oracle gates of the quantum circuit, a weighted oracle operator on the qubits to produce a sequence of quantum oracle calls, wherein the weighted oracle operator for the qubits applies an adjustable phase rotation at each of the quantum oracle calls in the sequence of quantum oracle calls and wherein the weighted oracle operator for each one of the qubits is in accordance with a weight associated with the one of the qubits; applying, via diffusion gates of the quantum circuit, diffusion operators; and generating a quantum computing result based on a measurement from the qubits, after having applied the sequence of quantum oracle calls and the diffusion operators.

Abstract: A controlled quantum logic gate implements a replacement for an n?1 qubit controlled X gate function to n qubits, wherein n is greater than 4. The quantum logic gate includes a controlled gate or controlled Z gate equivalent that selectively applies, under control of a first subset of the n qubits, a pi radian Z-axis Bloch sphere rotation or a phase flip to a target qubit of the n qubits. A pair of controlled Hadamard gates selectively conjugate the target qubit under control of a second subset of the n qubits.
