[BUG] `BasisEmbedding` gives the wrong decomposition #6007

Closed isaacdevlugt closed 1 month ago

isaacdevlugt commented 3 months ago

Expected behavior

BasisEmbedding's decomp should match BasisStatePreparation.

Actual behavior

It provides the wrong decomp.

Source code

import pennylane as qml
from pennylane import numpy as np

n = np.array([0, 1, 1])
wires = [0, 1, 2]

basis_state_prep = qml.BasisStatePreparation.compute_decomposition(n, wires)
basis_embed = qml.BasisEmbedding.compute_decomposition(n, wires)

print(basis_state_prep) # [X(1), X(2)]
print(basis_embed) # [X(1)]
