Abstract: We use a new technique for manipulating controlled quantum circuits to convert between two distinct types of quantum adders, one based on the Quantum Fourier Transform and the other based on the Ripple-Carry technique from classical reversible logic. This conversion takes the form of an explicit gate-level transpilation. We also present a new quantum adder with a natural interpretation as a kind of Carry-Lookahead adder that uses no ancillas.
