Cyclic groups and quantum logic gates

Abstract

We present a formula for an infinite number of universal quantum logic gates, which are $4$ by $4$ unitary solutions to the Yang-Baxter (Y-B) equation. We obtain this family from a certain representation of the cyclic group of order $n$. We then show that this {\it discrete} family, parametrized by integers $n$, is in fact, a small sub-class of a larger {\it continuous} family, parametrized by real numbers $\theta$, of universal quantum gates. We discuss the corresponding Yang-Baxterization and related symmetries in the concomitant Hamiltonian.
