class HarmonicBasis(watson_hamiltonian, basis, truncation_order=3)

Basis in which the Watson Hamiltonian is expressed.

This class uses the Hermite polynomials (eigenstates of the harmonic oscillator) as a modal basis for the expression of the Watson Hamiltonian or any bosonic operator.

Parâmetros

• watson_hamiltonian (WatsonHamiltonian) – A WatsonHamiltonian object which contains the hamiltonian information.

• basis (List[int]) – Is a list defining the number of modals per mode. E.g. for a 3 modes system with 4 modals per mode basis = [4, 4, 4].

• truncation_order (int) – where is the Hamiltonian expansion truncation (1 for having only 1-body terms, 2 for having on 1- and 2-body terms…)

Methods

__init__(watson_hamiltonian, basis[, …])	type watson_hamiltonian WatsonHamiltonian
convert([threshold])	This prepares an array object representing a bosonic hamiltonian expressed in the harmonic basis.

convert(threshold=1e-06)

This prepares an array object representing a bosonic hamiltonian expressed in the harmonic basis. This object can directly be given to the BosonicOperator class to be mapped to a qubit hamiltonian.

Parâmetros

threshold (float) – the matrix elements of value below this threshold are discarded

Tipo de retorno

List[List[Tuple[List[List[int]], float]]]

Retorna

List of modes for input to creation of a bosonic hamiltonian in the harmonic basis

Levanta

ValueError – If problem with order value from computed modes
