Non-commutativity and Local Indistinguishability of Quantum States
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the local indistinguishability problem of quantum states. By introducing an easily calculated quantity, non-commutativity, we present an criterion which is both necessary and sufficient for the local indistinguishability of a complete set of pure orthogonal product states. A constructive distinguishing procedure to obtain the concrete local measurements and classical communications is given. The non-commutativity of ensembles can be also used to characterize the quantumness for classical-quantum or quantum-classical correlated states.

LOCC indistinguishable orthogonal product quantum states
We construct two families of orthogonal product quantum states that cannot be exactly distinguished by local operation and classical communication (LOCC) in the quantum system of (2k+i) ⊗ (2l+j) (i, j ∈ {0, 1} and i ≥ j ) and (3k+i) ⊗ (3l+j) (i, j ∈ {0, 1, 2}). And we also give the tiling structure of these two families of quantum product states where the quantum states are unextendible in the ...
متن کاملThe Impact of the Spectral Filter Bandwidth on the Spectral Entanglement and Indistinguishability of Photon Pairs of SPDC Process
In this paper, we have investigated the dependence of the spectral entanglement and indistinguishability of photon pairs produced by the spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) procedure on the bandwidth of spectral filters used in the detection setup. The SPDC is a three-wave mixing process which occurs in a nonlinear crystal and generates entangled photon pairs and utilizes as one of th...
متن کاملExplore Electron Spin Parity Measurements in View of Indistinguishability
Recently, Hans-Andreas Engel and Daniel Loss proposed an interesting protocol of electrons spin parity measurement. In addition, they suggested a way of constructing controlled NOT (CNOT) gate and unviersal quantum computer with this measurement. However, a quantum erasing procesing will happen and their construction will become challenging, if the indistinguishability of two electrons in one q...
متن کاملMetrics on unitary matrices and their application to quantifying the degree of non-commutativity between unitary matrices
Quantum information processing is the study of methods and efficiency in storage, manipulation and conversion of information represented by quantum states. Many quantum information theoretic concepts are closely related to geometry. For instance, trace distance and fidelity, which come out of the study of distinguishability between quantum states, are closely linked with Bures and Fubini-Study ...
متن کاملThe witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and its preservers
One of unsolved problems in quantum measurement theory is to characterize coexistence of quantum effects. In this paper, applying positive operator matrix theory, we give a mathematical characterization of the witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and obtain a series of properties of coexistence. We also devote to characterizing bijective morphisms on quantum effects leaving the witness...
