PauliTable.tensor¶

PauliTable.tensor(other)[source]¶

Return the tensor output product of two tables.

This returns the combination of the tensor product of all Paulis in the current table with all Pauli’s in the other table, with the other tables qubits being the least-significant in the returned table. This is the opposite tensor order to expand().

Example

from qiskit.quantum_info.operators import PauliTable

current = PauliTable.from_labels(['I', 'X'])
other =  PauliTable.from_labels(['Y', 'Z'])
print(current.tensor(other))

PauliTable: ['IY', 'IZ', 'XY', 'XZ']

Parameters: other (PauliTable) – another PauliTable.
Returns: the tensor outer product table.
Return type: PauliTable
Raises: QiskitError – if other cannot be converted to a PauliTable.
