Modifying $n$-qubit controlled-$ZX$ gate to be $n$-qubit Toffoli gate

Abstract

The decomposition for controlled-$ZX$ gate in [Phys. Rev. A, 87, 062318 (2013)] has a shallow circuit depth $8n-20$ with no ancilla. Here we modify this decomposition to decompose $n$-qubit Toffoli gate with only $2n-3$ additional single-qubit gates. The circuit depth is unchanged and no ancilla is needed. We explicitly show that the circuit after decomposition can be easily constructed in present physical systems.
