to_circuit(self: pytket._tket.tableau.UnitaryRevTableau) → pytket._tket.circuit.Circuit¶: Synthesises a unitary Circuit realising the same unitary as the tableau. Uses the method from Aaronson & Gottesman: “Improved Simulation of Stabilizer Circuits”, Theorem 8. This is not optimised for gate count, so is not recommended for performance-sensitive usage.
