What is Gate Fusion?

Gate Fusion is the process of combining consecutive single-qubit gates into an equivalent, optimized gate to reduce circuit complexity and improve execution speed.

// Example of Gate Fusion
RX(pi/4) * RY(pi/2) * RZ(pi/8) 
โ†’ 
Single fused rotation gate
                

Fusion Optimization Steps

1

Gate Identification

Analyze the quantum circuit for adjacent single-qubit gates that can be combined through rotation angle fusion.

2

Parametric Combination

Use rotation axis-angle equations to derive a single equivalent gate matrix from sequential rotations.

3

Error Analysis

Validate the fidelity of the fused gate by comparing output states against the original sequence.

4

Implementation

Replace the original gates with the fused gate in the quantum circuit to simplify execution and reduce noise.
