用于Bures(统计距离)度量的Hubner公式被应用于单参数和双参数序列(n=2,.,7)2^n x 2^n密度矩阵的集合。在双参数化系列中,集合由具有实数项的2 x 2密度矩阵的n重张量积组成--对应于n个独立的、相同的量子系统。相应的Bures度量的高斯曲率被发现是常数(4/n)。在第二系列的2^n × 2^n密度矩阵的研究,单参数集形成-以下的研究Krattenthaler和斯莱特-平均相对于一定的吉布斯分布,n倍张量积的2 × 2密度矩阵与复杂的条目。对于n = 100,我们还能够计算这个特定序列中两个任意(不一定相邻)密度矩阵之间的Bures距离,利用Krattenthaler和Slater的特征值公式,以及这个序列中2 ^n x 2 ^n密度矩阵可交换的知识。
英文摘要:
Hubner's formula for the Bures (statistical distance) metric is applied to both a one-parameter and a two-parameter series (n=2,...,7) of sets of 2^n x 2^n density matrices. In the doubly-parameterized series, the sets are comprised of the n-fold tensor products --- corresponding to n independent, identical quantum systems --- of the 2 x 2 density matrices with real entries. The Gaussian curvatures of the corresponding Bures metrics are found to be constants (4/n). In the second series of 2^n x 2^n density matrices studied, the singly-parameterized sets are formed --- following a study of Krattenthaler and Slater --- by averaging with respect to a certain Gibbs distribution, the n-fold tensor products of the 2 x 2 density matrices with complex entries. For n = 100, we are also able to compute the Bures distance between two arbitrary (not necessarily neighboring) density matrices in this particular series, making use of the eigenvalue formulas of Krattenthaler and Slater, together with the knowledge that the 2^n x 2^n density matrices in this series commute.
The quantum information and the Bures metric are equivalent to each other, except at points where the rank of the density matrix changes. Here we show that by slightly modifying the definition of the Bures metric, the quantum information will be fully equivalent to the Bures metric without exception.
Bures/statistical distinguishability probabilities of triseparable and biseparable Eggeling-Werner States
在以前的一些研究中,我们已经研究了使用Bures(最小单调)度量的体积元素-同样,统计可扩展性(SD)度量的四分之一-作为n x n密度矩阵的(n^2-1)维凸集上的自然度量。这使得我们在n = 4和6的情况下估计了量子位-量子位和量子位-四元组对可分离的先验(Bures/SD)概率。在这里,我们将这项工作从这样的二分系统扩展到最近由Eggeling和Werner(Phys. Rev. A 63 [2001],042324)构造的具有U × U × U对称性的三分“实验室”量子系统。我们推导出相关的SD度量张量的三个量子比特和三个qutrit的情况下,然后使用Monte Carlo方法获得各种相关的Bures/SD概率的估计。
Separability analyses of two-qubit density matrices
我们追求一些分析方向,在某种程度上最初的动机是开发一种方法的可能性,正式证明或反驳量子理论相关性的某些猜想(quant-ph/0308037)。它断言可分离的两量子位密度矩阵所占据的15维体积是(\sqrt{2} -1)/3,这是根据统计可扩展性度量(Bures或最小单调度量的四倍)来测量的。然而,有些令人不安的是,我们报告的几个不同的分析,虽然我们希望独立/自主的兴趣,似乎提供了如何明确解决这个猜想的小迹象。在我们的研究中,有以下几个:(1)在一些雅各布奇克-西恩尼茨基双量子比特场景中布洛赫向量的二维截面的布勒斯体积;(2)可分密度矩阵的某些凸多面体的结构;(3)15 x 15布勒斯度量张量的对角化。

The unitarity of quantum evolutions implies that the overlap between two initial states does not change in time. This property is commonly believed to explain the lack of state sensitivity in quantum theory, a feature that is prevailing in classical chaotic systems. However, a distance between two points in classical phase space is a completely different mathematical concept than an overlap distance between two points in Hilbert space. There is a possibility that state sensitivity in quantum theory can be uncovered with a help of some other metric. Here we show that the recently introduced Wei…
We present a new method of deriving the geometry of entanglement wedges in holography directly from conformal field theories (CFTs). We analyze an information metric called the Bures metric of reduced density matrices for locally excited states. This measures distinguishability of states with different points excited. For a subsystem given by an interval, we precisely reproduce the expected entanglement wedge for two dimensional holographic CFTs from the Bures metric, which turns out to be proportional to the AdS metric on a time slice. On the other hand, for free scalar CFTs, we do not find a…
We reexamine a recent analysis in which, using the volume of the associated quantum steering ellipsoid (QES) as a measure, we sought to estimate the probability that a two-qubit state is separable. In the estimation process, we, in effect, sought to attach to states random with respect to Hilbert-Schmidt (HS) measure, the corresponding QES volumes. However, a study of the relations between HS and Bures ensembles and their well-supported separability probabilities of $\frac{8}{33}$ and $\frac{25}{341}$, respectively, now lead us to explore as a possible alternative measure, the QES volume divid…
In the report we analyze the indicator/measure of classicality of quantum states defined as the probability to find a state with a positive Wigner function within a unitary invariant random ensemble. The indicators of classicality of three ensembles associated with the Hilbert-Schmidt, Bures and Bogoliubov-Kubo-Mori metrics on the space of quantum states of 3-level system are computed. Their dependence on a moduli parameter of the Wigner function is studied for all strata of a qutrit state space stratified in accordance with the unitary group action.
The Bures-Hall distance metric between quantum states is a unique measure that satisfies various useful properties for quantum information processing. In this work, we study the statistical behavior of quantum entanglement over the Bures-Hall ensemble as measured by von Neumann entropy. The average von Neumann entropy over such an ensemble has been recently obtained, whereas the main result of this work is an explicit expression of the corresponding variance that specifies the fluctuation around its average. The starting point of the calculations is the connection between correlation functions…
A novel link between monotone metric tensors and actions of suitable extensions of the unitary group on the manifold of faithful quantum states is presented here by means of three illustrative examples related with the Bures-Helstrom metric tensor, the Wigner-Yanase metric tensor, and the Bogoliubov-Kubo-Mori metric tensor.
The metric underlying the mixed state geometric phase in unitary and nonunitary evolution [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 85}, 2845 (2000); Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 93}, 080405 (2004)] is delineated. An explicit form for the line element is derived and shown to be related to an averaged energy dispersion in the case of unitary evolution. The line element is measurable in interferometry involving nearby internal states. Explicit geodesics are found in the single qubit case. It is shown how the Bures line element can be obtained by extending our approach to arbitrary decompositions of density operators. The…
