The problem of quantifying the difference between evolutions of an open quantum system (in particular, between the actual evolution of an open system and the ideal target operation on the corresponding closed system) is important in quantum control, especially in control of quantum information processing. Motivated by this problem, we develop a measure for evaluating the distance between unitar...

We establish the entangling power of a unitary operator on a general finite-dimensional bipartite quantum system with and without ancillas, and give relations between the entangling power based on the von Neumann entropy and the entangling power based on the linear entropy. Significantly, we demonstrate that the entangling power of a general controlled unitary operator acting on two equal-dimen...

Maximally entangled states should maximally violate the Bell inequality. In this paper, it is proved that all two-qubit states that maximally violate the Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality are exactly Bell states and the states obtained from them by local unitary transformations. The proof is obtained by using the certain algebraic properties that Pauli’s matrices satisfy. The argument ...

Orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) gains increasing attention for broadband, high data rate wireless communications. In this paper, we develop a novel unitary precoded (UP) OFDMA scheme that is particularly appealing for the uplink, because it offers high bandwidth efficiency, and constant modulus transmissions for each user. Theoretical analysis of UP-OFDMA with channel codi...

We show that the time evolution of an open quantum system, described by a possibly time dependent Liouvillian, can be simulated by a unitary quantum circuit of a size scaling polynomially in the simulation time and the size of the system. An immediate consequence is that dissipative quantum computing is no more powerful than the unitary circuit model. Our result can be seen as a dissipative Chu...

If the locally compact abelian group G has a finitedimensional unitary irreducible projective representation with factor system co (i.e. G has an a>-rep), then a subgroup G(co) is defined which fulfils three roles. First, the square-root of the index of G(u)) in G is the dimension of every co-rep. Secondly, the co-reps of G can be labelled by the dual group of G(co), up to unitary equivalence. ...

We study how two pieces of localized quantum information can be delocalized across a composite Hilbert space when a global unitary operation is applied. We classify the delocalization power of global unitary operations on quantum information by investigating the possibility of relocalizing one piece of the quantum information without using any global quantum resource. We show that onepiece relo...
