Projectivities of Informationally Complete Measurements

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: The physical problem behind informationally completed (IC) measurements is determining an unknown state statistically by measurement outcomes, known as state tomography. It is of central importance in quantum information processing such as channel estimating, device testing, quantum key distribution, etc. However, constructing such measurements with good properties is a long standing problem. In this work, we investigate IC measurements including conditions, optimalities, projectivities and localities. Precisely, conditions of informational completeness are presented and a new optimality, representing the efficiency of devices in practise, is discussed with an optimized scheme provided. Then the projective realizations of IC measurements, including proposing the first general construction of minimal projective IC measurements (MPICM) in no prime power dimensional systems, as well as determining an unknown state in Cn via a single projective measurement in a larger system, are investigated. Finally, the results can be extended to local state tomography.
