Projection de l'opérateur de Pauli de référence

Action de la corde de Pauli sur un état fondamental de calcul

L'action d'une corde de Pauli sur un état de base de calcul est assez triviale; elle correspond en effet à un seul et même état de base de calcul. C'est une conséquence directe de la structure des matrices de Pauli, qui ne comportent qu'un seul élément non nul dans chacune de leurs lignes. Par conséquent, leur action sur un qubit est la suivante :


σx0=1\sigma_x |0 \rangle = |1 \rangle σx1=0\sigma_x |1 \rangle = |0 \rangle
σy0=i1\sigma_y |0 \rangle = i|1 \rangle σy1=i0\sigma_y |1 \rangle = -i|0 \rangle
σz0=0\sigma_z |0 \rangle = |0 \rangle σz1=1\sigma_z |1 \rangle = -|1 \rangle
I0=0I |0 \rangle = |0 \rangle I1=1I |1 \rangle = |1 \rangle

Chaque bit de la chaîne binaire définissant la base de calcul sera identifié par x{0,1}x \in \{0, 1 \}. Afin de rendre la mise en œuvre aussi légère que possible, nous représenterons ces chaînes binaires à l'aide bool des variables suivantes : 0False0\rightarrow \textrm{False} et 1True1\rightarrow \textrm{True}.

Pour représenter l'action de chaque opérateur de Pauli sur un état de base de calcul, nous lui attribuerons trois variables : diag, sign, imag.

  • diag indique si l'opérateur est diagonal :

    • diag(I)=True\textrm{diag}(I) = \textrm{True}
    • diag(σx)=False\textrm{diag}(\sigma_x) = \textrm{False}
    • diag(σy)=False\textrm{diag}(\sigma_y) = \textrm{False}
    • diag(σz)=True\textrm{diag}(\sigma_z) = \textrm{True}
  • sign Détermine s'il y a un changement de signe dans l'élément de matrice associé à 0 ou à 1 :

    • sign(I)=False\textrm{sign}(I) = \textrm{False}
    • sign(σx)=False\textrm{sign}(\sigma_x) = \textrm{False}
    • sign(σy)=True\textrm{sign}(\sigma_y) = \textrm{True}
    • sign(σz)=True\textrm{sign}(\sigma_z) = \textrm{True}
  • imag Indique si l'élément de matrice comporte une composante complexe :

    • imag(I)=False\textrm{imag}(I) = \textrm{False}
    • imag(σx)=False\textrm{imag}(\sigma_x) = \textrm{False}
    • imag(σy)=True\textrm{imag}(\sigma_y) = \textrm{True}
    • imag(σz)=False\textrm{imag}(\sigma_z) = \textrm{False}

Nous désignons un opérateur de Pauli arbitraire par σ{I,σx,σyσz}\sigma \in \{ I, \sigma_x, \sigma_y \sigma_z\}. L'action de l'opérateur de Pauli sur un état de base de calcul peut alors être représentée par l'opération logique suivante :

σx=x==diag(σ)(1)x and sign(σ)(i)imag(σ).\sigma |x \rangle = |x == \textrm{diag}(\sigma) \rangle (-1)^{x\textrm{ and sign}(\sigma)} (i)^{\textrm{imag}(\sigma)}.

Ce résultat se généralise sans difficulté à un nombre arbitraire de qubits.

Vérifions que cela fonctionne :

def connected_element_and_amplitude_bool(
    x: bool, diag: bool, sign: bool, imag: bool
) -> tuple[bool, complex]:
    """
    Finds the connected element to computational basis state |x> under
    the action of the Pauli operator represented by (diag, sign, imag).

    Args:
        x: Value of the bit, either True or False.
        diag: Whether the Pauli operator is diagonal (I, Z)
        sigma: Whether the Pauli operator's rows differ in sign (Y, Z)
        imag: Whether the Pauli operator is purely imaginary (Y)

    Returns:
        A length-2 tuple:
            - The connected element to x, either False or True
            - The matrix element
    """
    return x == diag, (-1) ** (x and sign) * (1j) ** (imag)


sigma_indices = [0, 1, 2, 3]
sigma_string = ["I", "SX", "SZ", "SY"]
sigma_diag = [True, False, True, False]
sigma_sign = [False, False, True, True]
sigma_imag = [False, False, False, True]
qubit_values = [False, True]

for xi in sigma_indices:
    print("-------------------")
    print(sigma_string[xi])
    for x in qubit_values:
        x_p, matrix_element = connected_element_and_amplitude_bool(
            x, sigma_diag[xi], sigma_sign[xi], sigma_imag[xi]
        )
        print(
            "|"
            + str(x)
            + "> -->  |"

            + ">    ME:"
            + str(matrix_element)
        )

Output:

Nous générons un grand nombre de chaînes de bits (50 millions) pour un système de 40 qubits :

import numpy as np
from qiskit_addon_sqd.qubit import sort_and_remove_duplicates

rand_seed = 22
np.random.seed(rand_seed)

# Generate some random bitstrings for testing


def random_bitstrings(n_samples, n_qubits):
    return (
        np.round(np.random.rand(n_samples, n_qubits))
        .astype("int")
        .astype("bool")
    )


n_qubits = 40
bts_matrix = random_bitstrings(50_000_000, n_qubits)

# We need to sort the bitstrings and only keep the unique ones
# NOTE: It is essential for the projection code to have the bitstrings sorted!
bts_matrix = sort_and_remove_duplicates(bts_matrix).astype("bool")

# Final subspace dimension after getting rid of duplicated bitstrings
d = bts_matrix.shape[0]

print("Total number of unique bitstrings: " + str(d))

Output:

Total number of unique bitstrings: 49998839
