文摘We present a new approach to the synthesis of quantum automata. In previous research, reversible quantum automata were designed from tabular specifications or state graphs, and minimum length codes, which lead to circuits with Toffoli gates with high numbers of inputs and thus to high quantum costs.

In this paper, we directly map flowcharts to reversible/quantum circuits, using only inverters, 2*2 Feynman gates and 3*3 Toffoli gates, and thus reducing quantum costs. Our method has been confirmed by experiments on several benchmarks of practical flowcharts.
