Describing orbit space of global unitary actions for mixed qudit states

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

The unitary U(d) \mathrm{U}(d)-equivalence relation between elements of the space P+ \mathfrak{P}_+\, of mixed states of dd-dimensional quantum system defines the orbit space P+/U(d)  \mathfrak{P}_+/ \mathrm{U}(d)\, and provides its description in terms the ring R[P+]U(d) \mathbb{R}[\mathfrak{P}_+]^{\mathrm{U}(d)}\, of U(d)\mathrm{U}(d)-invariant polynomials. We prove that the semi-algebraic structure of P+/U(d)  \mathfrak{P}_+/ \mathrm{U}(d)\, is determined completely by two basic properties of density matrices, their semi-positivity and Hermicity. Particularly, it is shown that the Processi-Schwarz inequalities in elements of integrity basis for R[P+]U(d) \mathbb{R}[\mathfrak{P}_+]^{\mathrm{U}(d)}\, defining the orbit space, are identically satisfied for all elements of P+\mathfrak{P}_+.
