Reversible circuits have applications in digital signal processing, computer graphics, quantum computation and cryptography. In this paper, a generalized k*k reversible gate family is proposed and a 3*3 gate of the family is discussed. Inverter, AND, OR, NAND, NOR, and EXOR gates can be realized by this gate. Implementation of a full-adder circuit using two such 3*3 gates is given. This full-ad...

Reversibility plays a fundamental role when the possibility to perform computations with minimal energy dissipation is considered. Many papers on reversible computation have appeared in literature: the most famous are certainly the work of Bennett on (universal) reversible Turing machines and the work of Fredkin and Toffoli on conservative logic. The latter is based upon the Fredkin gate, a rev...

Reversible, or information-lossless, circuits have applications in digital signal processing, communication, computer graphics and cryptography. They are also a fundamental requirement for quantum computation. We investigate the synthesis of reversible circuits that employ a minimum number of gates and contain no redundant input-output line-pairs (temporary storage channels). We propose new con...
