Let $|\Omega \rangle$ be the maximally entangled state over a bipartite system whose parts are each dimension $d$, i.e. $$ | \Omega \rangle \equiv \sum_i^{d}| ii \rangle $$ Then one way of writing th …

I have a generic channel $\mathcal{N}$ acting on a subspace of states defined on a $d$-dimensional Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. I am trying to make a statement about the dimension of the image of that …

I'm trying to estimate the fidelity of some family of unitaries $U(\theta)$ implemented on a noisy quantum computer. To do so, I start from an uninitialized state $|0\rangle$ and run the circuit $U(\t …

Let $\rho \in L(\mathcal{X})$ be a state in the space of linear operators acting on some complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{X}$. I'm interested in linear maps $\Phi: L(\mathcal{X}) \rightarrow L(\mathcal …

I have a CPTP quantum channel $\mathcal{E}$ that I've characterized by an operator sum representation $\{E_i\}$ for $i=1, \dots, m$ which acts on an input state like $$ \mathcal{E}(\rho) = \sum_{i=1}^ …

I have a depolarizing channel acting on $2^n \times 2^n$ Hermitian matrices, defined as $$\tag{1} \mathcal{D}_p (X) = p X + (1-p) \frac{\text{Tr}(X)}{2^n} \mathbb{I}_{2^n} $$ where $\mathbb{I}_{d}$ is …

I would like to know if there are any special properties of channels that permit a Kraus representation that includes an identity? That is, if I am given a Kraus representation of a CPTP map $\Phi$ fo …
