Published Sep 19, 2007• 0 citations
Publisher

Abstract

The purpose of this work is twofold.The first is to survey some parametrizations of positive matrices which have found applications in quantum information theory.The second is to provide some more applications of a parametrization of quantum states and channels introduced by T. Constantinescu and the last author, and thereby to provide further evidence of the utility of this parametrization.

Parametrizations of Positive Matrices With Applications

Tseng, M. C., Hong Zhou, Viswanath Ramakrishna

This paper reviews some characterizations of positive matrices and discusses which lead to useful parametrizations. It is argued that one of them, which we dub the Schur-Constantinescu parametrization is particularly useful. Two new applications of it are given. One shows all block-Toeplitz states are PPT. The other application is to relaxation rates.

Dilation Theoretic Parametrizations of Positive Matrices with Applications to Quantum Information

Tseng, M. C., Viswanath Ramakrishna

This paper, dedicated to the memory of late Professor Tiberiu Constantinescu, discusses two parametrizations of positive matrices. The first, called the Schur-Constantinescu parametrization, is used to construct several examples of separable states (e.g., Hankel states). The second, called the Jacobi parametrization, is used to present an alternative to the Bloch sphere representation of qubits.

Contractions, Matrix Paramatrizations, and Quantum Information

Tseng, M. C.

In this note, we discuss dilation-theoretic matrix parametrizations of contractions and positive matrices. These parametrizations are then applied to some problems in quantum information theory. First we establish some properties of positive maps, or entanglement witnesses. Two further applications, concerning concrete dilations of completely positive maps, in particular quantum operations, are given.
