What is the Choi matrix of the $H$ gate?
Let $\rho$ be your state.
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the Hadamard map.
$$\therefore \mathcal{E}(\rho) = H \rho H^{\dagger} = H \rho H\;.$$
Let $\Upsilon_{\mathcal{E}}$ be the Choi matrix. For this case, $ …

What are "completely positive" and "CPTP" quantum maps?
[A]
States lie in Hilbert space $\mathcal{H_S}$.
$|\psi\rangle \in \mathcal{H_S}\,.$
Operators, density operators lie in the bounded operator space of $\mathcal{H}_S$.
$\rho \in \mathcal{B}(\mathca …

When should I use the Choi matrix and when should I use the $\chi$ matrix?
This is just a comment, but it's too long for a comment, so writing as an answer. As I haven't read the paper you are asking about, I cannot answer as to particularly why that paper is using the proce …

Physical description of trace of ancilla state yields a depolarising channel
You originally have the equation $(38)$. Then you calculate
$$\rho = U |0, \Omega_0 \rangle \langle 0,\Omega_0 | U^{\dagger}\,.$$
Taking the partial trace of $\rho$, $\text{Tr}_{\Omega}(\rho)$ will g …
