Discrete phase-space structures and Wigner functions for N qubits
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 Mutually Unbiased Bases and Discrete Wigner Functions for Three-Qubit System
It is known that there exists 2 + 1 mutually unbiased bases for N qubits system. Between the different MUB construction algorithms of the three-qubit case, we focus on Wootters method with discrete phase space that leads naturally to a complete set of 2 + 1 mutually unbiased bases for the state space. We construct discrete Wigner function using mutually unbiased bases from the discrete phase sp...

Received Day Month Year Revised Day Month Year Discrete coherent states for a system of n qubits are introduced in terms of eigenstates of the finite Fourier transform. The properties of these states are pictured in phase space by resorting to the discrete Wigner function.
متن کاملWigner Functions and Separability for Finite Systems
Abstract A discussion of discrete Wigner functions in phase space related to mutually unbiased bases is presented. This approach requires mathematical assumptions which limits it to systems with density matrices defined on complex Hilbert spaces of dimension pn where p is a prime number. With this limitation it is possible to define a phase space and Wigner functions in close analogy to the con...
متن کاملDiscrete Wigner Function Derivation of the Aaronson-Gottesman Tableau Algorithm
The Gottesman–Knill theorem established that stabilizer states and Clifford operations can be efficiently simulated classically. For qudits with odd dimension three and greater, stabilizer states and Clifford operations have been found to correspond to positive discrete Wigner functions and dynamics. We present a discrete Wigner function-based simulation algorithm for odd-d qudits that has the ...

The quantum state of a system of n qubits can be represented by a Wigner function on a discrete phase space, each axis of the phase space taking values in the finite field F 2 n. Within this framework, we show that one can make sense of the notion of a " rotationally invariant state " of any collection of qubits, and that any such state is, in a well defined sense, a state of minimum uncertainty.
