摘要: In the stabilizer formalism of quantum theory, stabilizer states serves as classical objects, and non-stabilizer states (magic states) are resource for genuine quantum computation. In the paradigm of quantum measurement, symmetric informationally complete positive operator valued measures (SICs) play a prominent role due to their structural symmetry and remarkable features. However, their existence in all dimensions, although strongly supported by a plethora of theoretical and numerical evidences, remains an elusive open problem (Zauner's conjecture). A standard method for constructing SICs is via the orbit of Heisenberg-Weyl group on a fiducial state. A natural question arises as the relation between stabilizer states and fiducial states. In this talk, we connect them by showing that they are on two extremes with respect to the p-norm of characteristic functions of quantum states. This not only reveals a simple path from stabilizer states to SIC fiducial states which shows in a quantitative fashion that they are as far away as possible from each other, but also provides a simple reformulation of Zauner's conjecture. A convenient criterion for non-stabilizerness and some open problems are also presented.
