The mathematical model of the quantum reversible circuits is unitary matrix. Matrix can better reflect the quantum state evolution and further reflect the physical properties of the quantum computation. Matrix transformation based algorithm for 4-qubit reversible logic circuits synthesis is proposed in this paper. The algorithm skillfully uses the matrix representation of the quantum circuit and the circuit of the adjacent matrix to construct 4-qubit circuit with lower cost.
