Quantum Holonomies : Concepts and Applications to Quantum Computing and InterferometryKult, David January 2007 (has links)
Quantum holonomies are investigated in different contexts. A geometric phase is proposed for decomposition dependent evolution, where each component of a given decomposition of a mixed state evolves independently. It is shown that this geometric phase only depends on the path traversed in the space of decompositions. A holonomy is associated to general paths of subspaces of a Hilbert space, both discrete and continuous. This opens up the possibility of constructing quantum holonomic gates in the open path setting. In the discrete case it is shown that it is possible to associate two distinct holonomies to a given path. Interferometric setups for measuring both holonomies are provided. It is further shown that there are cases when the holonomy is only partially defined. This has no counterpart in the Abelian setting. An operational interpretation of amplitudes of density operators is provided. This allows for a direct interferometric realization of Uhlmann's parallelity condition, and the possibility of measuring the Uhlmann holonomy for sequences of density operators. Off-diagonal geometric phases are generalized to the non-Abelian case. These off-diagonal holonomies are undefined for cyclic evolution, but must contain members of non-zero rank if all standard holonomies are undefined. Experimental setups for measuring the off-diagonal holonomies are proposed. The concept of nodal free geometric phases is introduced. These are constructed from gauge invariant quantities, but do not share the nodal point structure of geometric phases and off-diagonal geometric phases. An interferometric setup for measuring nodal free geometric phases is provided, and it is shown that these phases could be useful in geometric quantum computation. A holonomy associated to a sequence of quantum maps is introduced. It is shown that this holonomy is related to the Uhlmann holonomy. Explicit examples are provided to illustrate the general idea.

Transformations Of Entangled Mixed States Of Two QubitsAlkus, Umit 01 February 2013 (has links) (PDF)
In this thesis, the entangled mixed states of two qubits are considered. In the case where the matrix rank of the corresponding density matrix is 2, such a state can be purified to a pure state of 3 qubits. By utilizing this representation, the classification of such states of two qubits by stochastic local operations assisted by classical communication (SLOCC) is obtained. Also for such states, the optimal ensemble that appears in the computation of the concurrence and entanglement of formation is obtained.

Ordering of Entangled States for Different Entanglement Measures / Ordning av Sammanflätningsgrad hos Kvantmekaniska Tillstånd för Olika MätmodellerSköld, Jennie January 2014 (has links)
Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon which has shown great potential use in modern technical implementations, but there is still much development needed in the field. One major problem is how to measure the amount of entanglement present in a given entangled state. There are numerous different entanglement measures suggested, all satisfying some conditions being of either operational, or more abstract, mathematical nature. However, in contradiction to what one might expect, the measures show discrepancies in the ordering of entangled states. Concretely this means that with respect to one measure, a state can be more entangled than another state, but the ordering may be opposite for the same states using another measure. In this thesis we take a closer look at some of the most commonly occurring entanglement measures, and find examples of states showing inequivalent entanglement ordering for the different measures. / Kvantmekanisk sammanflätning är ett fenomen som visat stor potential för framtida tekniska tillämpningar, men för att kunna använda oss av detta krävs att vi hittar lämpliga modeller att mäta omfattningen av sammanflätningen hos ett givet tillstånd. Detta har visat sig vara en svår uppgift, då de modeller som finns idag är otillräckliga när det gäller att konsekvent avgöra till vilken grad olika tillstånd är sammanflätade. Exempelvis kan en modell visa att ett tillstånd är mer sammanflätat än ett annat, medan en annan modell kan visa på motsatsen - att det första tillståndet är mindre sammanflätat än det andra. En möljig orsak kan ligga i de olika modellernas deifnition, då vissa utgår från operativa definitioner, medan andra grundas på matematiska, abstrakta villkor. I denna uppsats tittar vi lite närmre på några av de mätmodeller som finns, och hittar exempel på tillstånd som uppvisar olika ordning av sammanflätningsgrad beroende på vilken modell som används.
