@VolodyaCO would the custom gate functionality described here work for you?

VolodyaCO commented 2 years ago

Thanks @max-radin for pointing the docs! (I should have looked there first) I have not tried those with the qsim simulator. I will do that tomorrow, probably.

It looks like a symbol theta is needed in the example, but I want to depart from sympy because it is very slow. I want to define custom gates using either numpy or jax in order to gain significant speed.
