Standard Quantum Process Tomography
SQPT approaches this using linearly independent inputs, where is the dimension of the Hilbert space . For each of these input states, sending it through the process gives an output state which can be written as a linear combination of the, i.e. . By sending each through many times, quantum state tomography can be used to determine the coefficients experimentally.
Write
- ,
where is a matrix of coefficients. Then
- .
Since form a linearly independent basis,
- .
Inverting gives :
- .

Famous quotes containing the words standard, quantum and/or process:
“Neither I nor anyone else knows what a standard is. We all recognize a dishonorable act, but have no idea what honor is.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“A personality is an indefinite quantum of traits which is subject to constant flux, change, and growth from the birth of the individual in the world to his death. A character, on the other hand, is a fixed and definite quantum of traits which, though it may be interpreted with slight differences from age to age and actor to actor, is nevertheless in its essentials forever fixed.”
—Hubert C. Heffner (1901–1985)
“The toddler’s wish to please ... is a powerful aid in helping the child to develop a social awareness and, eventually, a moral conscience. The child’s love for the parent is so strong that it causes him to change his behavior: to refrain from hitting and biting, to share toys with a peer, to become toilet trained. This wish for approval is the parent’s most reliable ally in the process of socializing the child.”
—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
