clifford_state: Clifford State
In henry090/Cirq: Interface to 'Cirq'

Description Usage Arguments Details The state is stored using two complementary representations See Also

A state of the Clifford simulation.

1	clifford_state(qubit_map, initial_state = 0)

`qubit_map`	mapped qubits
`initial_state`	the initial state

The state is stored using two complementary representations: Anderson's tableaux form and Bravyi's CH-form. The tableaux keeps track of the stabilizer operations, while the CH-form allows access to the full wavefunction (including phase). Gates and measurements are applied to each representation in O(n^2) time.

Anderson's tableaux form and Bravyi's CH-form. The tableaux keeps track of the stabilizer operations, while the CH-form allows access to the full wavefunction (including phase).
