Radon Transform in Finite Dimensional Hilbert Space

Novel analysis of finite dimensional Hilbert space is outlined. The approach bypasses general, inherent, difficulties present in handling angular variables in finite dimensional problems: The finite dimensional, d, Hilbert space operators are underpinned with finite geometry which provide intuitive perspective to the physical operators. The analysis emphasizes a central role for projectors of mutual unbiased bases (MUB) states, extending thereby their use in finite dimensional quantum mechanics studies. Interrelation among the Hilbert space operators revealed via their (finite) dual affine plane geometry (DAPG) underpinning are displayed and utilized in formulating the finite dimensional ubiquitous Radon transformation and its inverse illustrating phase space-like physics encoded in lines and points of the geometry. The finite geometry required for our study is outlined.
