Phys. Rev. A 80, 042309 (2009) [7 pages]Quantum circuit for three-qubit random statesReceived 24 March 2009; published 15 October 2009 We explicitly construct a quantum circuit, which exactly generates random three-qubit states. The optimal circuit consists of three CNOT gates and fifteen single-qubit elementary rotations, parametrized by fourteen independent angles. The explicit distribution of these angles is derived, showing that the joint distribution is a product of independent distributions of individual angles apart from four angles. © 2009 The American Physical Society URL:
