<Class id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.17/qiskit/opflow/list_ops/composed_op.py" signature="ComposedOp(oplist, coeff=1.0, abelian=False)" modifiers="class">
|
||
A class for lazily representing compositions of Operators. Often Operators cannot be efficiently composed with one another, but may be manipulated further so that they can be composed later. This class holds logic to indicate that the Operators in `oplist` are meant to be composed, and therefore if they reach a point in which they can be, such as after conversion to QuantumCircuits or matrices, they can be reduced by composition.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **oplist** (`List`\[`OperatorBase`]) – The Operators being composed.
|
||
* **coeff** (`Union`\[`complex`, `ParameterExpression`]) – A coefficient multiplying the operator
|
||
* **abelian** (`bool`) – Indicates whether the Operators in `oplist` are known to mutually commute.
|
||
|
||

|
||
### assign\_parameters
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.assign_parameters" signature="assign_parameters(param_dict)">
|
||
Binds scalar values to any Terra `Parameters` in the coefficients or primitives of the Operator, or substitutes one `Parameter` for another. This method differs from Terra’s `assign_parameters` in that it also supports lists of values to assign for a give `Parameter`, in which case self will be copied for each parameterization in the binding list(s), and all the copies will be returned in an `OpList`. If lists of parameterizations are used, every `Parameter` in the param\_dict must have the same length list of parameterizations.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
**param\_dict** (`dict`) – The dictionary of `Parameters` to replace, and values or lists of values by which to replace them.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`OperatorBase`
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
The `OperatorBase` with the `Parameters` in self replaced by the values or `Parameters` in param\_dict. If param\_dict contains parameterization lists, this `OperatorBase` is an `OpList`.

</Function>
|
||

||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.bind_parameters" signature="bind_parameters(param_dict)">

||
Same as assign\_parameters, but maintained for consistency with QuantumCircuit in Terra (which has both assign\_parameters and bind\_parameters).
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`OperatorBase`
|
||
</Function>
|
||
|
||
### coeff
|
||
|
||
<Attribute id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.coeff">
|
||
The scalar coefficient multiplying the Operator.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`Union`\[`complex`, `ParameterExpression`]
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||

|
||
</Attribute>
|
||
|
||
### combo\_fn
|
||
|
||
<Attribute id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.combo_fn">
|
||
The function defining how to combine `oplist` (or Numbers, or NumPy arrays) to produce the Operator’s underlying function. For example, SummedOp’s combination function is to add all of the Operators in `oplist`.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**

||
|
||
`Callable`
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||

|
||

||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.compose" signature="compose(other, permutation=None, front=False)">
|
||
Return Operator Composition between self and other (linear algebra-style: A\@B(x) = A(B(x))), overloaded by `@`.
|
||
|
||
Note: You must be conscious of Quantum Circuit vs. Linear Algebra ordering conventions. Meaning, X.compose(Y) produces an X∘Y on qubit 0, but would produce a QuantumCircuit which looks like
|
||
|
||
> -\[Y]-\[X]-
|
||
|
||
Because Terra prints circuits with the initial state at the left side of the circuit.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **other** (`OperatorBase`) – The `OperatorBase` with which to compose self.
|
||
* **permutation** (`Optional`\[`List`\[`int`]]) – `List[int]` which defines permutation on other operator.

|
||
### distributive
|
||
|
||
<Attribute id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.distributive">
|
||
Indicates whether the ListOp or subclass is distributive under composition. ListOp and SummedOp are, meaning that (opv @ op) = (opv\[0] @ op + opv\[1] @ op) (using plus for SummedOp, list for ListOp, etc.), while ComposedOp and TensoredOp do not behave this way.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`bool`
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
A bool indicating whether the ListOp is distributive under composition.
|
||
</Attribute>
|
||
|
||
### equals
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.equals" signature="equals(other)">
|
||
Evaluate Equality between Operators, overloaded by `==`. Only returns True if self and other are of the same representation (e.g. a DictStateFn and CircuitStateFn will never be equal, even if their vector representations are equal), their underlying primitives are equal (this means for ListOps, OperatorStateFns, or EvolvedOps the equality is evaluated recursively downwards), and their coefficients are equal.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
**other** (`OperatorBase`) – The `OperatorBase` to compare to self.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`bool`
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
A bool equal to the equality of self and other.
|
||
</Function>
|
||
|
||
### eval
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.eval" signature="eval(front=None)">
|
||
Evaluate the Operator’s underlying function, either on a binary string or another Operator. A square binary Operator can be defined as a function taking a binary function to another binary function. This method returns the value of that function for a given StateFn or binary string. For example, `op.eval('0110').eval('1110')` can be seen as querying the Operator’s matrix representation by row 6 and column 14, and will return the complex value at those “indices.” Similarly for a StateFn, `op.eval('1011')` will return the complex value at row 11 of the vector representation of the StateFn, as all StateFns are defined to be evaluated from Zero implicitly (i.e. it is as if `.eval('0000')` is already called implicitly to always “indexing” from column 0).
|
||
|
||
ListOp’s eval recursively evaluates each Operator in `oplist`, and combines the results using the recombination function `combo_fn`.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
**front** (`Union`\[`str`, `dict`, `ndarray`, `OperatorBase`, `Statevector`, `None`]) – The bitstring, dict of bitstrings (with values being coefficients), or StateFn to evaluated by the Operator’s underlying function.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`Union`\[`OperatorBase`, `complex`]
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
The output of the `oplist` Operators’ evaluation function, combined with the `combo_fn`. If either self or front contain proper `ListOps` (not ListOp subclasses), the result is an n-dimensional list of complex or StateFn results, resulting from the recursive evaluation by each OperatorBase in the ListOps.
|
||
|
||
**Raises**
|
||
|
||
* **NotImplementedError** – Raised if called for a subclass which is not distributive.
|
||
* **TypeError** – Operators with mixed hierarchies, such as a ListOp containing both PrimitiveOps and ListOps, are not supported.
|
||
* **NotImplementedError** – Attempting to call ListOp’s eval from a non-distributive subclass.
|
||

|
||

|
||
|

**Return type**
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|

|
||
|
||
**Raises**
|
||
|
||

||
|

### primitive\_strings
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.primitive_strings" signature="primitive_strings()">
|
||
Return a set of strings describing the primitives contained in the Operator. For example, `{'QuantumCircuit', 'Pauli'}`. For hierarchical Operators, such as `ListOps`, this can help illuminate the primitives represented in the various recursive levels, and therefore which conversions can be applied.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
`Set`\[`str`]
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|

### reduce
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.reduce" signature="reduce()">
|
||

|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|

`OperatorBase`
|
||
|

**Returns**
|
||

### tensor
|
||
|
||
<Function id="qiskit.opflow.list_ops.ComposedOp.tensor" signature="tensor(other)">
|
||
Return tensor product between self and other, overloaded by `^`. Note: You must be conscious of Qiskit’s big-endian bit printing convention. Meaning, X.tensor(Y) produces an X on qubit 0 and an Y on qubit 1, or X⨂Y, but would produce a QuantumCircuit which looks like
|
||
|
||
> -\[Y]- -\[X]-
|
||
|
||
Because Terra prints circuits and results with qubit 0 at the end of the string or circuit.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
**other** (`OperatorBase`) – The `OperatorBase` to tensor product with self.

`OperatorBase`
|
||

|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||

|
||
Return NumPy representation of the Operator. Represents the evaluation of the Operator’s underlying function on every combination of basis binary strings. Warn if more than 16 qubits to force having to set `massive=True` if such a large vector is desired.

`ndarray`
