O ct 2 00 3 Informationally complete measurements and groups representation
نویسنده
چکیده
Informationally complete measurements on a quantum system allow to estimate the expectation value of any arbitrary operator by just averaging functions of the experimental outcomes. We show that such kind of measurements can be achieved through positive-operator valued measures (POVM’s) related to unitary irreducible representations of a group on the Hilbert space of the system. With the help of frame theory we provide a constructive way to evaluate the data-processing function for arbitrary operators. PACS numbers: 03.65.Ta, 03.65.Wj

Consider a symmetric quantum state on an n-fold product space, that is, the state is invariant under permutations of the n subsystems. We show that, conditioned on the outcomes of an informationally complete measurement applied to a number of subsystems, the state in the remaining subsystems is close to having product form. This immediately generalizes the so-called de Finetti representation to...

The Lawrence-Krammer representation introduced by Lawrence and Krammer in order to show the linearity of the braid group is generically irreducible. We show this fact and show further that for some values of its two parameters, when these are specialized to complex numbers, the representation becomes reducible. We describe what these values are and give a complete description of the dimensions ...

Mutually unbiased bases (MUB) are an elusive discrete structure in Hilbert spaces. Many (complete sets of) MUB are group covariant, but little is known whether they can be sharply covariant in the sense that the generating groups can have order equal to the total number of basis states, that is, d(d+1) for MUB in dimension d. Sharply covariant MUB, if they exist, would be most appealing from bo...
