Quantum tomography for continuous variables is based on the symplectic transformation group acting in the phase space. A particular case of symplectic tomography is optical tomography related to the action of a special orthogonal group. In the tomographic description of spin states, the connection between special unitary and special orthogonal groups is used. We analyze the representation for spin tomography using the Cayley-Klein parameters and discuss an analog of symplectic tomography for discrete variables. We propose a representation for tomograms of discrete variables through quaternions and employ the qubit-state tomogram to illustrate the method elaborated.

We consider the task of performing quantum state tomography on a $d$-state spin qudit, using only measurements of spin projection onto different quantization axes. By an exact mapping onto the classical problem of signal recovery on the sphere, we pr ove that full reconstruction of arbitrary qudit states requires a minimal number of measurement axes, $r_d^{mathrm{min}}$, that is bounded by $2d-1le r_d^{mathrm{min}}le d^2$. We conjecture that $r_d^{mathrm{min}}=2d-1$, which we verify numerically for all $dle200$. We then provide algorithms with $O(rd^3)$ serial runtime, parallelizable down to $O(rd^2)$, for (i) computing a priori upper bounds on the expected error with which spin projection measurements along $r$ given axes can reconstruct an unknown qudit state, and (ii) estimating a posteriori the statistical error in a reconstructed state. Our algorithms motivate a simple randomized tomography protocol, for which we find that using more measurement axes can yield substantial benefits that plateau after $rapprox3d$.
We propose a generalization of the Bloch sphere representation for arbitrary spin states. It provides a compact and elegant representation of spin density matrices in terms of tensors that share the most important properties of Bloch vectors. Our rep resentation, based on covariant matrices introduced by Weinberg in the context of quantum field theory, allows for a simple parametrization of coherent spin states, and a straightforward transformation of density matrices under local unitary and partial tracing operations. It enables us to provide a criterion for anticoherence, relevant in a broader context such as quantum polarization of light.
We present a novel method for quantum tomography of multi-qubit states. We apply the method to spin-multi-photon states, which we produce by periodic excitation of a semiconductor quantum-dot- confined spin every 1/4 of its coherent precession period . These timed excitations lead to the deterministic generation of strings of entangled photons in a cluster state. We show that our method can be used for characterizing the periodic process map, which produces the photonic cluster. From the measured process map, we quantify the robustness of the entanglement in the cluster. The 3-fold enhanced generation rate over previous demonstrations reduces the spin decoherence between the pulses and thereby increases the entanglement.
Semiconductor quantum dots are probably the preferred choice for interfacing anchored, matter spin qubits and flying photonic qubits. While full tomography of a flying qubit or light polarization is in general straightforward, matter spin tomography is a challenging and resource-consuming task. Here we present a novel all-optical method for conducting full tomography of quantum-dot-confined spins. Our method is applicable for electronic spin configurations such as the conduction-band electron, the valence-band hole, and for electron-hole pairs such as the bright and the dark exciton. We excite the spin qubit using short resonantly tuned, polarized optical pulse, which coherently converts the qubit to an excited qubit that decays by emitting a polarized single-photon. We perform the tomography by using two different orthogonal, linearly polarized excitations, followed by time-resolved measurements of the degree of circular polarization of the emitted light from the decaying excited qubit. We demonstrate our method on the dark exciton spin state with fidelity of 0.94, mainly limited by the accuracy of our polarization analyzers.
Interacting spin networks are fundamental to quantum computing. Data-based tomography of time-independent spin networks has been achieved, but an open challenge is to ascertain the structures of time-dependent spin networks using time series measurem ents taken locally from a small subset of the spins. Physically, the dynamical evolution of a spin network under time-dependent driving or perturbation is described by the Heisenberg equation of motion. Motivated by this basic fact, we articulate a physics-enhanced machine learning framework whose core is Heisenberg neural networks. In particular, we develop a deep learning algorithm according to some physics motivated loss function based on the Heisenberg equation, which forces the neural network to follow the quantum evolution of the spin variables. We demonstrate that, from local measurements, not only the local Hamiltonian can be recovered but the Hamiltonian reflecting the interacting structure of the whole system can also be faithfully reconstructed. We test our Heisenberg neural machine on spin networks of a variety of structures. In the extreme case where measurements are taken from only one spin, the achieved tomography fidelity values can reach about 90%. The developed machine learning framework is applicable to any time-dependent systems whose quantum dynamical evolution is governed by the Heisenberg equation of motion.
