Permutation Symmetry Determines the Discrete Wigner Function.
The Wigner function provides a useful quasiprobability representation of quantum mechanics, with applications in various branches of physics. Many nice properties of the Wigner function are intimately connected with the high symmetry of the underlying operator basis composed of phase point operators: any pair of phase point operators can be transformed to any other pair by a unitary symmetry tr...
متن کاملDiscrete Wigner Function Reconstruction and Compressed Sensing
Wigner function(WF), a quasi-probability distribution in phase space, was first introduced to describe quantum state in quantum mechanics by E. P. Wigner[1]. And later, it was extended to classical optics and signal processing. Since its birth, a great number of applications have been conducted in different fields. As for the original quantum case, like a continuous onedimensional quantum syste...
متن کاملDiscrete Wigner Function Derivation of the Aaronson-Gottesman Tableau Algorithm
The Gottesman–Knill theorem established that stabilizer states and Clifford operations can be efficiently simulated classically. For qudits with odd dimension three and greater, stabilizer states and Clifford operations have been found to correspond to positive discrete Wigner functions and dynamics. We present a discrete Wigner function-based simulation algorithm for odd-d qudits that has the ...
متن کاملFlavor Symmetry as a Spontaneously Broken Discrete Permutation Symmetry Embedded in Color
A new mechanism for breaking an internal symmetry spontaneously is discussed, which is intermediate between the Nambu-Goldstone and Wigner modes of symmetry breaking. Here the qq̄ sea takes the role of the vacuum of the Nambu-Goldstone case. Flavor symmetry becomes a discrete permutation symmetry of the valence quarks with respect to the sea quarks, which can be spontaneously broken without gene...
متن کاملWigner function for discrete phase space: exorcising ghost images
We construct, using simple geometrical arguments, a Wigner function defined on a discrete phase space of arbitrary integer Hilbert-space dimension that is free of redundancies. “Ghost images” plaguing other Wigner functions for discrete phase spaces are thus revealed as artifacts. It allows to devise a corresponding phase-space propagator in an unambiguous manner. We apply our definitions to ei...
