The maps of matrices and portrait maps of density operators of composite and noncomposite systems

الأصل · EN

We obtain a new inequality for arbitrary Hermitian matrices. We describe particular linear maps called the matrix portrait of arbitrary NxN matrices. The maps are obtained as analogs of partial tracing of density matrices of multipartite qudit systems. The structure of the maps is inspired by "portrait" map of the probability vectors corresponding to the action on the vectors by stochastic matrices containing either unity or zero matrix elements. We obtain new entropic inequalities for arbitrary qudit states including a single qudit and an discuss entangled single qudit state. We consider in detail the examples of N=3 and 4. Also we point out a possible use of entangled states of systems without subsystems (e.g., a single qudit) as a resource for quantum computations.
