예제

Consider a 2-qubit product state \(|\psi\rangle=|+\rangle\otimes|0\rangle\).

from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector

psi = Statevector.from_label('+0')

# Probabilities for measuring both qubits
probs = psi.probabilities()
print('probs: {}'.format(probs))

# Probabilities for measuring only qubit-0
probs_qubit_0 = psi.probabilities([0])
print('Qubit-0 probs: {}'.format(probs_qubit_0))

# Probabilities for measuring only qubit-1
probs_qubit_1 = psi.probabilities([1])
print('Qubit-1 probs: {}'.format(probs_qubit_1))

probs: [0.5 0.  0.5 0. ]
Qubit-0 probs: [1. 0.]
Qubit-1 probs: [0.5 0.5]

We can also permute the order of qubits in the qargs list to change the qubit position in the probabilities output

from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector

psi = Statevector.from_label('+0')

# Probabilities for measuring both qubits
probs = psi.probabilities([0, 1])
print('probs: {}'.format(probs))

# Probabilities for measuring both qubits
# but swapping qubits 0 and 1 in output
probs_swapped = psi.probabilities([1, 0])
print('Swapped probs: {}'.format(probs_swapped))

probs: [0.5 0.  0.5 0. ]
Swapped probs: [0.5 0.5 0.  0. ]

probabilities_dict(qargs=None, decimals=None)

Return the subsystem measurement probability dictionary.

Measurement probabilities are with respect to measurement in the computation (diagonal) basis.

This dictionary representation uses a Ket-like notation where the dictionary keys are qudit strings for the subsystem basis vectors. If any subsystem has a dimension greater than 10 comma delimiters are inserted between integers so that subsystems can be distinguished.

매개변수

• qargs (None or list) – subsystems to return probabilities for, if None return for all subsystems (Default: None).

• decimals (None or int) – the number of decimal places to round values. If None no rounding is done (Default: None).

Additional Information:

If all subsystems are reset this will return the ground state on all subsystems. If only a some subsystems are reset this function will perform a measurement on those subsystems and evolve the subsystems so that the collapsed post-measurement states are rotated to the 0-state. The RNG seed for this sampling can be set using the seed() method.

The relative tolerance parameter for float comparisons.

sample_counts(shots, qargs=None)

Additional Information:

This function samples measurement outcomes using the measure probabilities() for the current state and qargs. It does not actually implement the measurement so the current state is not modified.

The seed for random number generator used for sampling can be set to a fixed value by using the stats seed() method.

매개변수

예제

from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector

psi = Statevector.from_label('-0')
print(psi.to_dict())

{'00': (0.7071067811865475+0j), '10': (-0.7071067811865475+0j)}

For non-qubit subsystems the integer range can go from 0 to 9. For example in a qutrit system

import numpy as np
from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector

vec = np.zeros(9)
vec[0] = 1 / np.sqrt(2)
vec[-1] = 1 / np.sqrt(2)
psi = Statevector(vec, dims=(3, 3))
print(psi.to_dict())

{'00': (0.7071067811865475+0j), '22': (0.7071067811865475+0j)}

For large subsystem dimensions delimeters are required. The following example is for a 20-dimensional system consisting of a qubit and 10-dimensional qudit.

import numpy as np
from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector

vec = np.zeros(2 * 10)
vec[0] = 1 / np.sqrt(2)
vec[-1] = 1 / np.sqrt(2)
psi = Statevector(vec, dims=(2, 10))
print(psi.to_dict())
