Use a reversible circuit $T$ to compute an $L=O(n)$-bit representation of the angle into a workspace register, with all additional work bits retained:Write that representation as ${\theta }_x={\sum }_{l=1}^L{b}_l(x){\alpha }_l$, with known binary place values ${\alpha }_l$ (including the fixed scale and any integer bit). On the target, apply a controlled unitary gate $R_y(2{\alpha }_l)$ controlled by each angle bit $b_l$. Rotations about the same axis add their angles, so their product isFinally apply $T^{†}$ to perform uncomputation. The workspace returns to zero while the control register and rotated target remain unchanged; the construction works coherently on every superposition of $x$.

A polynomial time classical calculation has a polynomial-size reversible circuit with Toffoli gates, and each Toffoli gate has a constant-size decomposition into one-qubit and two-qubit gates. The $L$ controlled rotations are themselves two-qubit gates. Thus the total quantum circuit size is $\mathrm{poly}(n)$. This is the binary-angle implementation of a quantum variable rotation; the stipulated angle precision is understood.

Implement the assumed efficient classical algorithm for $x\mapsto {\theta }_x$ as a reversible circuit. On input $|x⟩|0^s⟩$, it computes an $O(m)$-bit binary expansion of the angle in a work register using $\mathrm{poly}(m)$ Toffoli gates and elementary reversible gates. Write the computed angle as a sum of binary-weighted angles. For each angle bit, apply the corresponding controlled single-qubit $R_y$ rotation to the target. These rotations have the same axis, so their angles add and produceFinally apply uncomputation to erase the work register. Each Toffoli gate and controlled rotation has a constant-size decomposition into one- and two-qubit gates when arbitrary one-qubit rotations are available. Ignoring the stipulated precision costs, the resulting circuit has size $\mathrm{poly}(m)$ and returns every quantum ancilla to zero.

Write $x=x_1{x}_2$. Since the marked word is $11$, the required oracle is a single Toffoli gate with $x_1$ and $x_2$ as its two controls and the answer qubit $y$ as its target:The target flips exactly when both controls are one, which is exactly when $x=11$.

A reversible circuit is composed of bijective gates. The Toffoli gate is universal for reversible Boolean computation when ancillary bits are available.
