Reshuffling Operations

The subroutines listed in this Section are designed for performing the operations of Table 1 on operators X, mapping a finite dimensional bipartite Hilbert space

Htot = HA HB =  CN CK

into itself

X  :  Htot →  Htot .

Table 1: Reshuffling Operations

Reorderings of a matrix X representing an operator which acts on a composed Hilbert space. The arrows denote the indices exchanged.



All the subroutines linked on this pages incorporate the definitions described in the book

Ingemar Bengtsson and Karol Zyczkowski
Geometry of Quantum States
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2006,

from which Table 1 is taken, and in the paper

Karol Zyczkowski and Ingemar Bengtsson
On duality between quantum maps and quantum states
Open Sys. Inf. Dyn. 11, 3-42 (2004).

In the latter reference the term “flip” is used in place of “swap”.
Some distinctions are in order:
  • X can either be REAL or CPLX;
  • in the input of the subroutine, X can either be expressed in the “product
        basis”
    of CN CK, namely |m,μ〉 := |m〉A ⊗ |μ〉B , or in the “overall basis”
        of CNK, namely |i〉tot .
According to the last of the points listed above, when X is given in the overall basis, it will be considered as a 2-dimensional NK x NK matrix whose matrix elements X(i,j) are given by

X(i,j) =  tot〈i| X |j〉tot .

Conversely, when X is given in the product basis, it will be considered as a 4-dimensional N x K x N x K matrix whose matrix elements X(m,μ,n,ν) are given by

X(m,μ,n,ν) =  〈m,μ| X |n,ν〉 .

Conversion between the 2 basis are possible by means of 4 subroutines, called R_NK_pro.f , C_NK_pro.f , R_pro_NK.f , C_pro_NK.f  and listed here below.
 
Subroutine ’s Name Precision Version Compatibility
R_NK_pro.f Single 1.0.0 Fortran 90
Uses:  None
Description: 

it take as input 2 INTEGER numbers N and K and a REAL matrix X, whose matrix elements are given in the product basis of CN CK; return as output the same matrix X, but now expressed in the overall basis of CNK.

 
Subroutine ’s Name Precision Version Compatibility
C_NK_pro.f Complex 1.0.0 Fortran 90
Uses:  None
Description: 

it take as input 2 INTEGER numbers N and K and a CPLX matrix X, whose matrix elements are given in the product basis of CN CK; return as output the same matrix X, but now expressed in the overall basis of CNK.

 
Subroutine ’s Name Precision Version Compatibility
R_pro_NK.f Single 1.0.0 Fortran 90
Uses:  None
Description: 

it take as input 2 INTEGER numbers N and K and a REAL matrix X, whose matrix elements are given in the overall basis of CNK; return as output the same matrix X, but now expressed in the product basis of CN CK.

 
Subroutine ’s Name Precision Version Compatibility
C_pro_NK.f Complex 1.0.0 Fortran 90
Uses:  None
Description: 

it take as input 2 INTEGER numbers N and K and a CPLX matrix X, whose matrix elements are given in the overall basis of CNK; return as output the same matrix X, but now expressed in the product basis of CN CK.


According to the fact that matrices X can either be expressed in both the two basis, and moreover can either be REAL or CPLX, we divided the following 32 subroutines in 4 families:

• REAL Matrices X given in the product basis [8]

This 8 subroutines act onto REAL matrices X as described in Table 1.
Inputs/Outputs are given in the product basis of CN CK.

• CPLX Matrices X given in the product basis [8]

This 8 subroutines act onto CPLX matrices X as described in Table 1.
Inputs/Outputs are given in the product basis of CN CK.

• REAL Matrices X given in the overall basis [8]

This 8 subroutines act onto REAL matrices X as described in Table 1.
Inputs/Outputs are given in the overall basis of CNK.

• CPLX Matrices X given in the overall basis [8]

This 8 subroutines act onto CPLX matrices X as described in Table 1.
Inputs/Outputs are given in the overall basis of CNK.
