contents Quantum state preparation is a task to prepare a state with a specific function encoded in the amplitude, which is an essential subroutine in many quantum algorithms. In this paper, we focus on multivariate state preparation, as it is an important extension for many application areas. Specifically in finance, multivariate state preparation is required for multivariate Monte Carlo simulation, which is used for important numerical tasks such as risk aggregation and multi-asset derivative pricing. Using existing methods, multivariate quantum state preparation requires the number of gates exponential in the number of variables $D$. For this task, we propose a quantum algorithm that only requires the number of gates linear in $D$. Our algorithm utilizes multivariable quantum signal processing (M-QSP), a technique to perform the multivariate polynomial transformation of matrix elements. Using easily prepared block-encodings corresponding to each variable, we apply the M-QSP to construct the target function. In this way, our algorithm prepares the target state efficiently for functions achievable with M-QSP.
