Describing orbit space of global unitary actions for mixed qudit states

Abstract

The unitary $ \mathrm{U}(d)$-equivalence relation between elements of the space $\mathfrak{P}_+\,$ of mixed states of $d$-dimensional quantum system defines the orbit space $ \mathfrak{P}_+/ \mathrm{U}(d)\,$ and provides its description in terms the ring $\mathbb{R}[\mathfrak{P}_+]^{\mathrm{U}(d)}\,$ of $\mathrm{U}(d)$-invariant polynomials. We prove that the semi-algebraic structure of $ \mathfrak{P}_+/ \mathrm{U}(d)\, $ is determined completely by two basic properties of density matrices, their semi-positivity and Hermicity. Particularly, it is shown that the Processi-Schwarz inequalities in elements of integrity basis for $\mathbb{R}[\mathfrak{P}_+]^{\mathrm{U}(d)}\,$ defining the orbit space, are identically satisfied for all elements of $\mathfrak{P}_+$.

Constructing SU(2) x U(1) orbit space for qutrit mixed states

Vladimir P. Gerdt, A. Khvedelidze, Yuri Palii

The orbit space $\mathfrak{P}(\mathbb{R}^8)/\mathrm{G}$, of the group $\mathrm{G}:=\mathrm{SU(2)\times U(1)}\subset\mathrm{U(3)}$ acting adjointly on the state space $\mathfrak{P}(\mathbb{R}^8)$ of a 3-level quantum system is discussed. The semi-algebraic structure of $\mathfrak{P}(\mathbb{R}^8) /\mathrm{G}$, is determined within the Procesi-Schwarz method. Using the integrity basis for the ring of G-invariant polynomials, $\mathbb{R}[\mathfrak{P}(\mathbb{R}^8)]^{\mathrm{G}}$, the set of constraints on the Casimir invariants of $\mathrm{U}(3)$ group coming from the positivity requirement of Procesi-Schwarz gradient matrix, $\mathrm{Grad}(z)\geqslant 0$, is analyzed in details.

Polynomial inequalities for multipartite quantum systems in mixed states

Iurie Palii

Entanglement in a multipartite quantum system represents non-local correlations between the system parts. This phenomenon is not affected by the action of a symmetry group, which acts separately on each part of the multipartite composite system. The space of the invariants of the action is a natural domain of the definition for all possible measures of the entanglement. Allowed values of the invariants are restricted by a set of inequalities, which is analyzed in this paper. The inequalities ensue from the semipositivity and Hermicity of the density matrix for the system as well as from the orbit space description in terms of the invariant theory.

A Complete Set of Invariants for LU-Equivalence of Density Operators

Jacob Turner, Jason Morton

We show that two density operators of mixed quantum states are in the same local unitary orbit if and only if they agree on polynomial invariants in a certain Noetherian ring for which degree bounds are known in the literature.This implicitly gives a finite complete set of invariants for local unitary equivalence.This is done by showing that local unitary equivalence of density operators is equivalent to local GL equivalence and then using techniques from algebraic geometry and geometric invariant theory.We also classify the SLOCC polynomial invariants and give a degree bound for generators of the invariant ring in the case of n-qubit pure states.Of course it is well known that polynomial invariants are not a complete set of invariants for SLOCC.

Parameterizing qudit states

A. Khvedelidze, Dimitar M. Mladenov, Astghik Torosyan

Quantum systems with a finite number of states at all times have been a primary element of many physical models in nuclear and elementary particle physics, as well as in condensed matter physics. Today, however, due to a practical demand in the area of developing quantum technologies, a whole set of novel tasks for improving our understanding of the structure of finite-dimensional quantum systems has appeared. In the present article we will concentrate on one aspect of such studies related to the problem of explicit parameterization of state space of an NN-level quantum system. More precisely, we will discuss the problem of a practical description of the unitary SU(N){SU(N)}-invariant counterpart of the NN-level state space BN{\mathcal{B}_N}, i.e., the unitary orbit space BN/SU(N){B_N/SU(N)}. It will be demonstrated that the combination of well-known methods of the polynomial invariant theory and convex geometry provides useful parameterization for the elements of BN/SU(N){B_N/SU(N)}. To illustrate the general situation, a detailed description ofBN/SU(N){B_N/SU(N)} for low-level systems: qubit (N=2{N= 2}), qutrit (N=3{N=3}), quatrit (N=4{N= 4}) - will be given.
