Abstract

A geometric characterization is given for invertible quantum measurement maps. Denote by S(H) the convex set of all states (i.e., trace I positive operators) on Hilbert space H with dim H S(H) satisfies phi ([rho(1), rho(2)]) subset of [phi(rho(1)), phi(rho(2))] for any rho(1), rho(2) is an element of S if and only if phi has one of the following forms rho bar right arrow M rho M*/tr(M rho M*) or rho bar right arrow M rho T M*/tr(M rho T M*), where M is an invertible bounded linear operator and rho(T) is the transpose of rho with respect to an arbitrarily fixed orthonormal basis.
