S† (inverse phase) gate
Exact & formalPhase gate
The Hermitian conjugate (and inverse) of the S gate, applying a -π/2 phase to |1⟩ and undoing whatever an S gate did earlier in a circuit.
Every quantum algorithm worth knowing about, written down the same way: what it takes, what it returns, what it costs, and who proved it.

Every record is classified by how it was verified. The badge shows the strongest tier of evidence; the chips list each method that applies.
The defining behavior was checked exactly: a mathematical identity, a full statevector or stabilizer simulation, or an exhaustive basis-state truth table.
The design was verified by construction plus measured evidence: statistical re-execution, small-instance analytic agreement, sub-block, echo, or invariant checks. Scale-specific bugs can still survive.
The record rests on external authority: peer-reviewed papers, standard textbooks, expert review, or evidence carried over from related verified entries. Nothing here was re-executed by this catalog.
Only automated (LLM-assisted) review or an unreviewed community submission backs this record so far. Treat it as a starting point, not evidence.
