# DAGDependency
<Class id="qiskit.dagcircuit.DAGDependency" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/0.24/qiskit/dagcircuit/dagdependency.py" signature="DAGDependency" modifiers="class">
Bases: `object`
Object to represent a quantum circuit as a directed acyclic graph via operation dependencies (i.e. lack of commutation).
The nodes in the graph are operations represented by quantum gates. The edges correspond to non-commutation between two operations (i.e. a dependency). A directed edge from node A to node B means that operation A does not commute with operation B. The objects methods allow circuits to be constructed.
The nodes in the graph have the following attributes: operation, successors, predecessors.
**Example:**
Bell circuit with no measurement.
```python
┌───┐
qr_0: ┤ H ├──■──
└───┘┌─┴─┐
qr_1: ─────┤ X ├
└───┘
```
The dependency DAG for the above circuit is represented by two nodes. The first one corresponds to Hadamard gate, the second one to the CNOT gate as the gates do not commute there is an edge between the two nodes.

<span id="qiskit-dagcircuit-dagdependency-replace-block-with-op" />
### replace\_block\_with\_op
<Function id="qiskit.dagcircuit.DAGDependency.replace_block_with_op" signature="DAGDependency.replace_block_with_op(node_block, op, wire_pos_map, cycle_check=True)">
Replace a block of nodes with a single node.
This is used to consolidate a block of DAGDepNodes into a single operation. A typical example is a block of CX and SWAP gates consolidated into a LinearFunction. This function is an adaptation of a similar function from DAGCircuit.
It is important that such consolidation preserves commutativity assumptions present in DAGDependency. As an example, suppose that every node in a block \[A, B, C, D] commutes with another node E. Let F be the consolidated node, F = A o B o C o D. Then F also commutes with E, and thus the result of replacing \[A, B, C, D] by F results in a valid DAGDependency. That is, any deduction about commutativity in consolidated DAGDependency is correct. On the other hand, suppose that at least one of the nodes, say B, does not commute with E. Then the consolidated DAGDependency would imply that F does not commute with E. Even though F and E may actually commute, it is still safe to assume that they do not. That is, the current implementation of consolidation may lead to suboptimal but not to incorrect results.
**Parameters**
* **node\_block** (*List\[*[*DAGDepNode*](qiskit.dagcircuit.DAGDepNode "qiskit.dagcircuit.DAGDepNode")*]*) A list of dag nodes that represents the node block to be replaced
* **op** ([*qiskit.circuit.Operation*](qiskit.circuit.Operation "qiskit.circuit.Operation")) The operation to replace the block with
* **wire\_pos\_map** (*Dict\[*[*Qubit*](qiskit.circuit.Qubit "qiskit.circuit.Qubit")*, int]*) The dictionary mapping the qarg to the position. This is necessary to reconstruct the qarg order over multiple gates in the combined single op node.
* **cycle\_check** (*bool*) When set to True this method will check that replacing the provided `node_block` with a single node would introduce a cycle (which would invalidate the `DAGDependency`) and will raise a `DAGDependencyError` if a cycle would be introduced. This checking comes with a run time penalty. If you can guarantee that your input `node_block` is a contiguous block and wont introduce a cycle when its contracted to a single node, this can be set to `False` to improve the runtime performance of this method.
**Raises**
**DAGDependencyError** if `cycle_check` is set to `True` and replacing the specified block introduces a cycle or if `node_block` is empty.
