Physical transformations between quantum states
Given two sets of quantum states {A1, . . . , Ak} and {B1, . . . , Bk}, represented as sets as density matrices, necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of a physical transformation T , represented as a trace-preserving completely positive map, such that T (Ai) = Bi for i = 1, . . . , k. General completely positive maps without the trace-preserving requirement, and un...
متن کاملOn the existence of physical transformations between sets of quantum states
Let A = {ρ1, . . . , ρn} be a given set of quantum states. We consider the problem of finding necessary and sufficient conditions on another set B = {σ1, . . . , σn} that guarantee the existence of a physical transformation taking ρi to σi for all i. Uhlmann has given an elegant such condition when both sets comprise pure states. We give a simple proof of this condition and develop some consequ...
متن کاملFidelities for transformations of unknown quantum states
We present a general theoretical formalism to compute the fidelity of transformations of unknown quantum states, and we apply our theory to Gaussian transformations of continuous variable quantum systems. For the case of a Gaussian distribution of displaced coherent states, the theory is readily tractable by a covariance matrix formalism, and a wider class of states, exemplified by Fock states,...
متن کاملQuantum Canonical Transformations: Physical Equivalence of Quantum Theories
Two quantum theories are physically equivalent if they are related, not by a unitary transformation, but by an isometric transformation. The conditions under which a quantum canonical transformation is an isometric transformation are given.
متن کاملRelations Between Quantum Maps and Quantum States
The relation between completely positive maps and compound states is investigated in terms of the notion of quantum conditional probability.
