Symmetric Informationally-Complete Quantum States as Analogues to Orthonormal Bases and Minimum-Uncertainty States
Recently there has been much effort in the quantum information community to prove (or disprove) the existence of symmetric informationally complete (SIC) sets of quantum states in arbitrary finite dimension. This paper strengthens the urgency of this question by showing that if SIC-sets exist: (1) by a natural measure of orthonormality, they are as close to being an orthonormal basis for the sp...
متن کاملSymmetric Informationally Complete Quantum Measurements
We consider the existence in arbitrary finite dimensions d of a POVM comprised of d rank-one operators all of whose operator inner products are equal. Such a set is called a “symmetric, informationally complete” POVM (SIC-POVM) and is equivalent to a set of d equiangular lines in C . SIC-POVMs are relevant for quantum state tomography, quantum cryptography, and foundational issues in quantum me...
متن کاملFisher-Symmetric Informationally Complete Measurements for Pure States.
We introduce a new kind of quantum measurement that is defined to be symmetric in the sense of uniform Fisher information across a set of parameters that uniquely represent pure quantum states in the neighborhood of a fiducial pure state. The measurement is locally informationally complete-i.e., it uniquely determines these parameters, as opposed to distinguishing two arbitrary quantum states-a...
متن کاملOn Approximately Symmetric Informationally Complete Positive Operator-Valued Measures and Related Systems of Quantum States
We address the problem of constructing positive operator-valued measures (POVMs) in finite dimension n consisting of n2 operators of rank one which have an inner product close to uniform. This is motivated by the related question of constructing symmetric informationally complete POVMs (SIC-POVMs) for which the inner products are perfectly uniform. However, SIC-POVMs are notoriously hard to con...
متن کاملMinimum-error discrimination between symmetric mixed quantum states
We provide a solution of finding optimal measurement strategy for distinguishing between symmetric mixed quantum states. It is assumed that the matrix elements of at least one of the symmetric quantum states are all real and nonnegative in the basis of the eigenstates of the symmetry operator.
