class Stinespring(data, input_dims=None, output_dims=None)

Stinespring representation of a quantum channel.

The Stinespring representation of a quantum channel \(\mathcal{E}\) is a rectangular matrix \(A\) such that the evolution of a DensityMatrix \(\rho\) is given by

\[\mathcal{E}(ρ) = \mbox{Tr}_2\left[A ρ A^\dagger\right]\]

where \(\mbox{Tr}_2\) is the partial_trace() over subsystem 2.

A general operator map \(\mathcal{G}\) can also be written using the generalized Stinespring representation which is given by two matrices \(A\), \(B\) such that

\[\mathcal{G}(ρ) = \mbox{Tr}_2\left[A ρ B^\dagger\right]\]

See reference [1] for further details.

Initialize a quantum channel Stinespring operator.

매개변수

• (QuantumCircuit or (data) – Instruction or BaseOperator or matrix): data to initialize superoperator.

• input_dims (tuple) – the input subsystem dimensions. [Default: None]

• output_dims (tuple) – the output subsystem dimensions. [Default: None]

예외

QiskitError – if input data cannot be initialized as a a list of Kraus matrices.

Additional Information:

If the input or output dimensions are None, they will be automatically determined from the input data. This can fail for the Stinespring operator if the output dimension cannot be automatically determined.
