Reversible in-place carry-lookahead addition with few ancillae

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingArticle in proceedingsResearchpeer-review

We present a reversible, in-place carry-lookahead adder that uses fewer ancillae than previous designs. Specifically, an N-bit adder uses only roughly N ancillae, where previous designs have used roughly 2N ancillae. The cost is 20% higher gate count and 50% higher gate delay.
