Photon-number tomography and fidelity

Abstract

The scheme of photon-number tomography is discussed in the framework of star- product quantization. The connection of dual quantization scheme and observables is reviewed. The quantizer and dequantizer operators and kernels of star-product of tomograms in photon-number tomography scheme and its dual one are presented in explicit form. The fidelity and state purity are discussed in photon-number tomographic scheme, and the expressions for fidelity and purity are obtained in the form of integral of the product of two photon-number tomograms with integral kernel which is presented in explicit form. The properties of quantumness are discussed in terms of inequalities on state photon-number tomograms.

Probability representation of quantum mechanics and star product quantization

S. N. Belolipetskiy, Vladimir N. Chernega, Olga V. Man’ko +1 more

The review of star-product formalism providing the possibility to describe quantum states and quantum observables by means of the functions called symbols of operators which are obtained by means of bijective maps of the operators acting in Hilbert space onto these functions is presented. Examples of the Wigner-Weyl symbols (like Wigner quasi-distributions) and tomographic probability distributions (symplectic, optical and photon-number tomograms) identified with the states of the quantum systems are discussed. Properties of quantizer-dequantizer operators which are needed to construct the bijective maps of two operators (quantum observables) onto the symbols of the operators are studied. The relation of the structure constants of the associative star-product of the operator symbols to the quantizer-dequantizer operators is reviewed.

Groupoids and the tomographic picture of quantum mechanics

Alberto Ibort, Vladimir I. Man’ko, G Marmo +3 more

The existing relation between the tomographic description of quantum states and the convolution algebra of certain discrete groupoids represented on Hilbert spaces will be discussed. The realizations of groupoid algebras based on qudit, photon-number (Fock) states and symplectic tomography quantizers and dequantizers will be constructed. Conditions for identifying the convolution product of groupoid functions and the star--product arising from a quantization--dequantization scheme will be given. A tomographic approach to construct quasi--distributions out of suitable immersions of groupoids into Hilbert spaces will be formulated and, finally, intertwining kernels for such generalized symplectic tomograms will be evaluated explicitly.

Generalized tomographic maps and star-product formalism

M. Asorey, Paolo Facchi A, V I Man’ko +3 more

We elaborate on the notion of generalized tomograms, both in the classical and quantum domains. We construct a scheme of star-products of thick tomographic symbols and obtain in explicit form the kernels of classical and quantum generalized tomograms. Some of the new tomograms may have interesting applications in quantum optical tomography.

Photon number tomography and photon statistics of two-mode Gaussian states

Olga V. Man’ko, Vladimir I. Man’ko

The explicit relationship of photon number tomogram and optical tomogram is obtained for two-mode light. The corresponding integral kernel is expressed in terms of Laguerre polynomials. The connection of the Heisenberg uncertainty relationship with photon statistics is elucidated.
