<Class id="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.2/qiskit/circuit/library/generalized_gates/mcmt.py#L158-L256" signature="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain(gate, num_ctrl_qubits, num_target_qubits)" modifiers="class">
|
||
Bases: [`MCMT`](qiskit.circuit.library.MCMT "qiskit.circuit.library.generalized_gates.mcmt.MCMT")
|
||
|
||
The MCMT implementation using the CCX V-chain.
|
||
|
||
This implementation requires ancillas but is decomposed into a much shallower circuit than the default implementation in [`MCMT`](qiskit.circuit.library.MCMT "qiskit.circuit.library.MCMT").
|

The circuit data (instructions and context).
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
a list-like object containing the [`CircuitInstruction`](qiskit.circuit.CircuitInstruction "qiskit.circuit.CircuitInstruction")s for each instruction.
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
QuantumCircuitData
|
||
</Attribute>
|
||
|
||
### global\_phase

<Attribute id="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain.global_phase">
|
||
The global phase of the current circuit scope in radians.
|
||
</Attribute>
|
||
|
||
### instances
|
||
|
||
<Attribute id="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain.instances" attributeValue="179" />
|
||
|
||
### layout
|
||
|
||
<Attribute id="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain.layout">
|
||
Return any associated layout information about the circuit
|
||
|
||
This attribute contains an optional [`TranspileLayout`](qiskit.transpiler.TranspileLayout "qiskit.transpiler.TranspileLayout") object. This is typically set on the output from [`transpile()`](compiler#qiskit.compiler.transpile "qiskit.compiler.transpile") or [`PassManager.run()`](qiskit.transpiler.PassManager#run "qiskit.transpiler.PassManager.run") to retain information about the permutations caused on the input circuit by transpilation.
|
||
|
||
There are two types of permutations caused by the [`transpile()`](compiler#qiskit.compiler.transpile "qiskit.compiler.transpile") function, an initial layout which permutes the qubits based on the selected physical qubits on the [`Target`](qiskit.transpiler.Target "qiskit.transpiler.Target"), and a final layout which is an output permutation caused by [`SwapGate`](qiskit.circuit.library.SwapGate "qiskit.circuit.library.SwapGate")s inserted during routing.

</Attribute>
|
||

||
### metadata

||
<Attribute id="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain.metadata">
|
||
Arbitrary user-defined metadata for the circuit.
|
||
|
||
Qiskit will not examine the content of this mapping, but it will pass it through the transpiler and reattach it to the output, so you can track your own metadata.

|
||
This attribute is enabled once one of scheduling analysis passes runs on the quantum circuit.
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|

|
||
List of integers representing instruction start times. The index corresponds to the index of instruction in `QuantumCircuit.data`.
|
||
|
||
**Raises**
|
||
|
||
[**AttributeError**](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#AttributeError "(in Python v3.13)") – When circuit is not scheduled.
|
||
</Attribute>
|
||
|
||
### parameters
|
||
|
||
<Attribute id="qiskit.circuit.library.MCMTVChain.parameters">
|
||
The parameters defined in the circuit.
|
||
|
||
This attribute returns the [`Parameter`](qiskit.circuit.Parameter "qiskit.circuit.Parameter") objects in the circuit sorted alphabetically. Note that parameters instantiated with a [`ParameterVector`](qiskit.circuit.ParameterVector "qiskit.circuit.ParameterVector") are still sorted numerically.
|
||
|
||
**Examples**
|
||
|
||
The snippet below shows that insertion order of parameters does not matter.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
>>> from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Parameter
|
||
>>> a, b, elephant = Parameter("a"), Parameter("b"), Parameter("elephant")
|
||
>>> circuit = QuantumCircuit(1)
|
||
>>> circuit.rx(b, 0)
|
||
>>> circuit.rz(elephant, 0)
|
||
>>> circuit.ry(a, 0)
|
||
>>> circuit.parameters # sorted alphabetically!
|
||
ParameterView([Parameter(a), Parameter(b), Parameter(elephant)])
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Bear in mind that alphabetical sorting might be unintuitive when it comes to numbers. The literal “10” comes before “2” in strict alphabetical sorting.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
>>> from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Parameter
|
||
>>> angles = [Parameter("angle_1"), Parameter("angle_2"), Parameter("angle_10")]
|
||
>>> circuit = QuantumCircuit(1)
|
||
>>> circuit.u(*angles, 0)
|
||
>>> circuit.draw()
|
||
┌─────────────────────────────┐
|
||
q: ┤ U(angle_1,angle_2,angle_10) ├
|
||
└─────────────────────────────┘
|
||
>>> circuit.parameters
|
||
ParameterView([Parameter(angle_1), Parameter(angle_10), Parameter(angle_2)])
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To respect numerical sorting, a [`ParameterVector`](qiskit.circuit.ParameterVector "qiskit.circuit.ParameterVector") can be used.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
>>> from qiskit.circuit import QuantumCircuit, Parameter, ParameterVector
|
||
>>> x = ParameterVector("x", 12)
|
||
>>> circuit = QuantumCircuit(1)
|
||
>>> for x_i in x:
|
||
... circuit.rx(x_i, 0)
|
||
>>> circuit.parameters
|
||
ParameterView([
|
||
ParameterVectorElement(x[0]), ParameterVectorElement(x[1]),
|
||
ParameterVectorElement(x[2]), ParameterVectorElement(x[3]),
|
||
..., ParameterVectorElement(x[11])
|
||
])
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Returns**

The sorted [`Parameter`](qiskit.circuit.Parameter "qiskit.circuit.Parameter") objects in the circuit.
