Abstract

Methods, systems and apparatus for preparing arbitrary superposition quantum states of a quantum register on a quantum computer, the quantum state comprising a superposition of L computational basis states. In one aspect, a register of log L qubits is prepared in a weighted sum of register basis states, where each register basis state indexes a corresponding quantum state computational basis state, and the amplitude of each register basis state in the weighted sum of register basis states is equal to the amplitude of the corresponding computational basis state in the superposition of L computational basis states. A unitary transformation that maps the register basis states to the corresponding L computational basis states is then implemented, including, for each index 1 to L, controlling, by the register of log L qubits, transformation of the quantum system register state for the index to the corresponding computational basis state for the index.
