Abstract

In this paper we develop the conditional density matrix formalism for adequate description of division and unificationof quantum systems. Applications of this approach to the descriptions of parapositronium, quantum teleportation and others examples are discussed.

Conditional density matrix: subsystems in quantum communication

Vladimir Viktorovich Belokurov, Oleg Antonovich Khrustalev, Victor Antonovich Sadovnichy +1 more

A new quantum mechanical notion - Conditional Density Matrix - proposed by the authors, is discussed and is applied to describe some physical processes. This notion is a natural generalization of von Neumann density matrix for such processes as divisions of quantum systems into subsystems and reunifications of subsystems into new joint systems. Conditional Density Matrix assigns a quantum state to a subsystem of a composite system under condition that another part of the composition system is in some pure state. It is shown that conditional density matrix naturally arises by expanding of reduced density matrix.

The Density Matrix Formalism

Bernard d’Espagnat

Along with an elementary description of the well-known density matrix formalism and of its application to the description of quantum-statistical ensembles, this chapter includes the proofs of a few propositions that are especially useful for understanding most of the developments. In the new formulation, ensembles are directly described by density matrices, observables are still described by Hermitean operators, and the rules giving the statistical distribution and the mean values of the predicted measurement results are, respectively, expressions. When stated in this manner, the rules of quantum mechanics apply directly not only to pure states but also to mixtures. This is a distinct advantage. In the case of mixtures defined by their density matrices, the new formulation also has another merit. If two proper mixtures are described by the same density matrix, any state vector representing a subensemble of one of these mixtures can be expressed as a linear combination of the state vectors representing the subensembles of the other mixture.

Mathematical Modeling of Physical and Engineering Systems in Quantum Information

Horace P. Yuen

Several concrete examples in quantum information are discussed to demonstrate the importance of proper modeling that relates the mathematical description to real-world applications. In particular, it is shown that some commonly accepted conclusions are not adequately supported by their purported justifications in the logical manner required.
