Radon transform in finite Hilbert space

M. Revzen

Published Mar 27, 2012• 9 citations

Abstract

A novel analysis of finite-dimensional Hilbert space is outlined. The approach bypasses the general, inherent, difficulties present in handling angular variables in finite-dimensional problems: the finite-dimensional, d , odd prime, Hilbert space operators are underpinned with a finite geometry which provides intuitive perspectives to the physical operators. The analysis emphasizes a central role for projectors of mutual unbiased bases (MUB) states, extending thereby their use in finite-dimensional quantum-mechanics studies. Interrelations among the Hilbert space operators revealed via their (finite) dual affine plane geometry (DAPG) underpinning are displayed and utilized in formulating the finite-dimensional ubiquitous Radon transformation and its inverse illustrating phase-space-like physics encoded in lines and points of the geometry. The finite geometry required for our study is outlined.

Finite Geometry and the Radon Transform

M. Revzen

Finite Geometry is used to underpin operators acting in finite, d, dimensional Hilbert space. Quasi distribution and Radon transform underpinned with finite dual affine plane geometry (DAPG) are defined in analogy with the continuous ($d \rightarrow \infty$) Hilbert space case. An essntial role in these definitions play the projectors of states of mutual unbiased bases (MUB) and their Wigner function-like mapping onto the generalized phase space that lines and points of DAPG constitutes.

Geometrical Underpinning of Finite Dimensional Hilbert space

M. Revzen

Finite geometry is employed to underpin operators in finite, d, dimensional Hilbert space. The central role of mutual unbiased bases (MUB) states projectors is exhibited. Interrelation among operators in Hilbert space, revealed through their (finite) dual affine plane geometry (DAPG) underpinning is studied. Transcription to (finite) affine plane geometry (APG) is given and utilized for their interpretation.

Classical and Quantal State Reconstruction

M. Revzen

Analysis of state reconstruction both classical and quantum mechanical on equal footing is outlined. The meaning of "mutual unbiased bases" (MUB) of Hilbert spaces is explained in detail. An alternative quantum state reconstruction, that utilizes mutual unbiased bases (MUB), is given. The MUB approach is then used for state reconstruction in a finite, d, dimensional Hilbert spaces.

Geometrical view of the Mean King Problem

M. Revzen

Finite geometry is used to underpin finite, $d^2$, dimensional Hilbert space accommodating two particles, d dimensional each. d=prime $\ne2$. Central role is allotted to states with mutual unbiased bases (MUB) labelling underpinned with points of finite dual affine plane geometry (DAPG). The DAPG lines are shown to underpin maximally entangled states which form an orthonormal basis spanning the space and provide a novel, geometrical view to a new solution of the Mean King Problem (MKP). Brief expositions to the topics considered: MUB, DAPG and the MKP are included rendering the paper self contained.
