QUANTUM GATES AND PROTOCOLS WITH SPHERICAL WIGNER FUNCTIONS

Orsolya Kálmán, M. G. Benedict

The fundamental concepts and operations of quantum information theory are considered in the framework of a phase space formulation of quantum mechanics, where the states of one or several qubits are represented by a specific continuous quasiprobability distribution function on the Bloch sphere or on its generalizations. The function we use is the spherical Wigner function. It is shown that the usual transformations of quantum information theory are certain rotations or more general transformations of this Wigner function. We show that the standard teleportation and dense coding protocols can be appropriately formulated in terms of the Wigner function.

Wigner functions on a lattice

Akiyoshi Takami, T. Hashimoto, M. Horibe +1 more

The Wigner functions on the one-dimensional lattice are studied. Contrary to the previous claim in literature, Wigner functions exist on the lattice with any number of sites, whether it is even or odd. There are infinitely many solutions satisfying the conditions which reasonable Wigner functions should respect. After presenting a heuristic method to obtain Wigner functions, we give the general form of the solutions. Quantum-mechanical expectation values in terms of Wigner functions are also discussed.

Wigner Functions and Weyl Operators on the Euclidean Motion Group

Marin Drinov Academic Publishing House, Laarni B. Natividad, Job A. Nable

The Wigner distribution function is one of the pillars of the phase space formulation of quantum mechanics. Its original formulation may be cast in terms of the unitary representations of the Weyl–Heisenberg group. Following the construction proposed by Wolf and coworkers in constructing the Wigner functions for general Lie groups using the irreducible unitary representations of the groups, we develop here the Wigner functions and Weyl operators on the Euclidean motion group of rank three. We give complete derivations and proofs of their important properties.
