Optimal quantum circuits for general phase estimation.

We address the problem of estimating the phase phi given N copies of the phase-rotation gate uphi. We consider, for the first time, the optimization of the general case where the circuit consists of an arbitrary input state, followed by any arrangement of the N phase rotations interspersed with arbi...
