Resumo

IBM's quantum computers implement gates from Clifford +T gate library. All single qubit gates are implemented, but only a subset of the possible CNOT are provided. It is well known that the functionally of the missing gates can be achieved by a sequence of gates. The sequence of gates is based on SWAP gates. Up to seven elementary gates are required to implement a SWAP gate. In this paper we show how the same effect can be achieved with fewer gates. To show the potential of the proposed transformations, an example is presented where a reduction of 44% in the gate count and a 26% reduction in the number of levels for IBM's QX5 computer is achieved. An algorithm that is considered state of the art, is used for the comparison.
