Represents the momentum displacement gate. For more details, see the Strawberry Fields convention page.

Momentum displacement gate parameter \(z\) accessible via:

• \(z\): Zgate->f1

Public Functions

inline Zgate(complexvec z, intvec m)

Constructor that throws an error if complex parameters are provided.

Parameters

• z – vector<complex<double>> parameters

• m – mode gate acts on

Throws

invalid_argument – Operation must have real arguments

inline Zgate(intvec z, intvec m)

Constructor that throws an error if integer parameters are provided.

Parameters

• z – vector<int> parameters

• m – mode gate acts on

Throws

invalid_argument – Operation must have real arguments

inline Zgate(floatvec z, intvec m)

Constructor to initialize a Zgate acting on mode m

Parameters
