Interference in discrete Wigner functions

We analyse some features of the class of discrete Wigner functions that was recently introduced by Gibbons et al. to represent quantum states of systems with power-of-prime dimensional Hilbert spaces [Phys. Rev. A 70, 062101 (2004)]. We consider “cat” states obtained as coherent superpositions of states with positive Wigner function; for such states we show that the oscillations of the discrete...

Mutually unbiased bases and discrete Wigner functions

Mutually unbiased bases and discrete Wigner functions are closely, but not uniquely related. Such a connection becomes more interesting when the Hilbert space has a dimension that is a power of a primeN = d, which describes a composite system of n qudits. Hence, entanglement naturally enters the picture. Although our results are general, we concentrate on the simplest nontrivial example of dime...

Discrete Wigner functions and quantum computational speed-up

In quant-ph/0401155 Wootters and colaborators defined a class of discrete Wigner functions W to represent quantum states in a finite Hilbert space dimension d. I characterize a set Cd of states having non-negative W simultaneously in all definitions of W in this class. For d ≤ 5 I show Cd is the convex hull of stabilizer states. This supports the conjecture that negativity of W is necessary for...

Discrete phase-space structures and Wigner functions for N qubits

We further elaborate on a phase-space picture for a system of N qubits and explore the structures compatible with the notion of unbiasedness. These consist of bundles of discrete curves satisfying certain additional properties and different entanglement properties. We discuss the construction of discrete covariant Wigner functions for these bundles and provide several illuminating examples.

Generating All Wigner Functions

In the context of phase-space quantization, matrix elements and observables result from integration of c-number functions over phase space, with Wigner functions serving as the quasi-probability measure. The complete sets of Wigner functions necessary to expand all phase-space functions include off-diagonal Wigner functions, which may appear technically involved. Nevertheless, it is shown here ...
