Due to restrictions on the hardware and its significant demand on qubits and gates in known implementations, its execution is prohibitive on near-term quantum computers. Aiming to facilitate such NISQ-implementations, we propose a novel circuit approximation technique that enhances the arithmetic subroutines in the HHL, which resemble a particularly resource-demanding component in small-scale settings. For this, we provide a description of the algorithmic implementation of space-efficient rotations of polynomial functions that do not demand explicit arithmetic calculations inside the quantum circuit. We show how these types of circuits can be reduced in depth by providing a simple and powerful approximation technique. Moreover, we provide an algorithm that converts lookup-tables for arbitrary function rotations into a structure that allows an application of the approximation technique. This allows implementing approximate rotation circuits for many polynomial and non-polynomial functions. Experimental results obtained for realistic early-application dimensions show significant improvements compared to the state-of-the-art, yielding small circuits while achieving good approximations.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.05024v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2306.05024v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"approximative-lookup-tables-and-arbitrary","repo_url":"https://github.com/petros-stougiannidis/quantum-rotation-compiler","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
