Almost-Optimal Computational Basis State Transpositions

Abstract

We give an explicit construction to perform any n-qubit computational basis state transposition using (n) gates. This nearly coincides with the lower bound (n/(nd)) on worst-case and average-case gate complexity to perform transpositions using a d-element gate-set, which we also prove.
