Ancilla-free randomized Toffoli gates and the T-count of Boolean oracles

arXiv:2610.38189v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In fault-tolerant Clifford+T circuits, a Boolean oracle costs T gates and extra qubits, and on four or more qubits every exact Toffoli gate needs an extra qubit. Gosset, Kothari and Zhang showed that sampling a fresh random circuit for each call makes the T-count of the Toffoli gate independent of its size, but a direct implementation of their sampler uses about one…

arXiv:2610.38189v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In fault-tolerant Clifford+T circuits, a Boolean oracle costs T gates and extra qubits, and on four or more qubits every exact Toffoli gate needs an extra qubit. Gosset, Kothari and Zhang showed that sampling a fresh random circuit for each call makes the T-count of the Toffoli gate independent of its size, but a direct implementation of their sampler uses about one extra qubit per bit of precision. We show that computing the sampled parities in place, on the gate's own controls, removes every extra qubit once the gate is large enough: each random circuit then uses about 8 T gates per bit of precision and borrows only the gate's own idle inputs.
