Fortran Code for Generating Random Probability Vectors, Unitaries, and Quantum States

Fortran Code for Generating Random Probability Vectors, Unitaries, and Quantum States

The usefulness of generating random configurations is recognized in many areas of knowledge. Fortran was born for scientific computing and has been one of the main programing languages in this area since then. And several ongoing projects targeting toward its betterment indicate that it will keep this status in the decades to come. In this article, we describe Fortran codes produced, or organiz...

Employing online quantum random number generators for generating truly random quantum states in Mathematica

We present a new version of TRQS package for Mathematica computing system. The package allows harnessing quantum random number generators (QRNG) for investigating the statistical properties of quantum states. It implements a number of functions for generating random states. The new version of the package adds the ability to use the on-line quantum random number generator service and implements ...

Generating and using truly random quantum states in Mathematica

The problem of generating random quantum states is of a great interest from the quantum information theory point of view. In this paper we present a package for Mathematica computing system harnessing a specific piece of hardware, namely Quantis quantum random number generator (QRNG), for investigating statistical properties of quantum states. The described package implements a number of functi...

Probability Generating Functions for Sattolo’s Algorithm

In 1986 S. Sattolo introduced a simple algorithm for uniform random generation of cyclic permutations on a fixed number of symbols. Recently, H. Prodinger analysed two important random variables associated with the algorithm, and found their mean and variance. H. Mahmoud extended Prodinger’s analysis by finding limit laws for the same two random variables.The present article, starting from the ...
