Mixed quantum states in higher categories
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are two ways to describe the interaction between classical and quantum information categorically: one based on completely positive maps between Frobenius algebras, the other using symmetric monoidal 2-categories. This paper makes a first step towards combining the two. The integrated approach allows a unified description of quantum teleportation and classical encryption in a single 2-category, as well as a universal security proof applicable simultaneously to both scenarios.

Categories and Quantum Informatics: Complete posivity
Up to now, we have only considered categorical models of pure states. But if we really want to take grouping systems together seriously as a primitive notion, we should also care about mixed states. This means we have to add another layer of structure to our categories. This chapter studies a beautiful construction with which we don’t have to step outside the realm of compact dagger categories ...
متن کاملAxiomatic Description of Mixed States From Selinger's CPM-construction
We recast Selinger’s CPM-construction of completely positive maps [11] as an axiomatization of maximally mixed states. This axiomatization also guarantees categories of completely positive maps to satisfy the preparation-state agreement axiom of [3], and admits a physical interpretation in terms of purification of mixed states and CPMs. Internal traces, which are crucial in quantum information ...
متن کاملDecoherence effects on quantum Fisher information of multi-qubit W states
Quantum fisher information of a parameter characterizing the sensitivity of a state with respect to parameter changes. In this paper, we study the quantum fisher information of the W state for four, five, six and seven particles in decoherence channels, such as amplitude damping, phase damping and depolarizing channel. Using Krauss operators for decoherence channels components, we investigate t...
متن کاملA Survey of Quantum Lyapunov Control Methods
The condition of a quantum Lyapunov-based control which can be well used in a closed quantum system is that the method can make the system convergent but not just stable. In the convergence study of the quantum Lyapunov control, two situations are classified: nondegenerate cases and degenerate cases. For these two situations, respectively, in this paper the target state is divided into four cat...
متن کاملEnergy states and exchange energy of coupled double quantum dot in a magnetic field
The ground state energies of two interacting electrons confined in a coupled double quantum dot (DQD) presented in a magnetic field has been calculated by solving the relative Hamiltonian using variational and exact diagonalization methods. The singlet-triplet transitions in the angular momentum and spin of the quantum dot ground state had been shown .We have studied the magnetic field versus c...
