Synthesis of GF(3) Based Reversible/Quantum Logic Circuits without Garbage Output

Abstract

We present a method of synthesizing Ternary GaloisField (GF(3)) based reversible/quantum logic circuits without any ancillary trits/qutrits and hence without any garbage outputs. We realize multi input ternary Toffoli gate and square functions of GF(3) variables using linear ion trap realizable Muthukrishnan-Stroud (M-S) gates and shift gates in the absence of ancillary qutrits. Then based on the Galois Field Sum of Products (GFSOP)expression of a multi-variable GF(3) function, we synthesize the corresponding circuit.
