Quantum algorithms to solve practical problems in quantum chemistry, materials science, and matrix inversion often involve a significant amount of arithmetic operations. These arithmetic operations are to be carried out in a way that is amenable to the underlying fault-tolerant gate set, leading to an optimization problem to come close to the Pareto-optimal front between number of qubits and overall circuit size. In this disclosure, a quantum circuit library is provided for floating-point addition and multiplication. Circuits are presented that are automatically generated from classical Verilog implementations using synthesis tools and compared with hand-generated and hand-optimized circuits. Example circuits were constructed and tested using the software tools LIQUi| and RevKit.
