<Class id="qiskit.circuit.library.iSwapGate" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.17/qiskit/circuit/library/standard_gates/iswap.py" signature="iSwapGate" modifiers="class">
|
||
iSWAP gate.
|
||
|
||
A 2-qubit XX+YY interaction. This is a Clifford and symmetric gate. Its action is to swap two qubit states and phase the $|01\rangle$ and $|10\rangle$ amplitudes by i.
|
||
|
||
**Circuit Symbol:**
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
q_0: ─⨂─
|
||
│
|
||
q_1: ─⨂─
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Reference Implementation:**
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
┌───┐┌───┐ ┌───┐
|
||
q_0: ┤ S ├┤ H ├──■──┤ X ├─────
|
||
├───┤└───┘┌─┴─┐└─┬─┘┌───┐
|
||
q_1: ┤ S ├─────┤ X ├──■──┤ H ├
|
||
└───┘ └───┘ └───┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Matrix Representation:**
|
||
|
||
$$
|
||
\begin{split}iSWAP = R_{XX+YY}(-\frac{\pi}{2})
|
||
= exp(i \frac{\pi}{4} (X{\otimes}X+Y{\otimes}Y)) =
|
||
\begin{pmatrix}
|
||
1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 0 & i & 0 \\
|
||
0 & i & 0 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 0 & 0 & 1
|
||
\end{pmatrix}\end{split}
|
||
$$
|
||
|
||
This gate is equivalent to a SWAP up to a diagonal.
|
||
|
||
$$
|
||
\begin{split}iSWAP =
|
||
\begin{pmatrix}
|
||
1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 0 & 0 & 1
|
||
\end{pmatrix}
|
||
. \begin{pmatrix}
|
||
1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & i & 0 & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 0 & i & 0 \\
|
||
0 & 0 & 0 & 1

||
outs: [q[0], q[2]], []

||
|
||
> * If len(qargs) == 1:
|
||
>
|
||
> ```python
|
||
> [q[0], q[1]] -> [q[0]],[q[1]]
|
||
> ```
|
||
>
|
||
> * If len(qargs) == 2:

> [[q[0]], [r[0], r[1]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[0], r[1]]
|
||
> [[q[0], q[1]], [r[0]]] -> [q[0], r[0]], [q[1], r[0]]
|
||
> ```
|
||
>
|
||
> * If len(qargs) >= 3:
|
||

||
