Fault-tolerant quantum computers compose elements of a discrete gate set in order to approximate a target unitary. The problem of minimizing the number of gates is known as gate synthesis. The approximation error is a form of coherent noise, which can be significantly more damaging than comparable incoherent noise. We show how mixing over different gate sequences can convert this coherent noise into an incoherent form. As measured by diamond distance, the postmixing noise is quadratically smaller than before mixing, without increasing resource cost upper bounds. Equivalently, we can look for shorter gate sequences that achieve the same precision as unitary gate synthesis. For a broad class of problems this gives a factorreduction in worst-case resource costs.
