Quantum Physics - Abstract
The quantum measurement procedure based on the Lorentz transformation formalism and weak perturbation of the system is considered. In the simple case of a single-qubit it turns out that one can perform 4-dimension pseudo-rotation along with ordinary 3-dimension rotations on the Bloch sphere. These pseudo-rotations are similar to the Lorentz transformation in special relativity theory. The extension of the Lorentz transformation for many-qubit systems is also considered. The quantum measurement protocols based on the Lorentz transformation are proposed. It has been shown that these protocols cease to form the decomposition of unity and could be superefficient providing the fidelity higher than any POVM-measurement protocol. However, one can perform the complement of the Lorentz protocol to POVM-protocol by an additional measurement operator. If the initial mixed state is close to the pure one this operator corresponds to weak perturbation of the state while the original Lorentz protocol sets the strong perturbations. As the result, the feedback provides an effective control of a quantum system introducing weak perturbations to the quantum state. The results of this research are essential for the development of methods for the control of quantum information technologies., Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures
