SubsystemOperator

class SubsystemOperator(matrix, subsystems, str_label=None)[source]

Bases: AbstractSubsystemOperator

A concrete operator specified in terms of a matrix.

Initialize.

Parameters:
  • matrix – The matrix of the operator.

  • subsystems – The ordered subsystems representing the tensor factor system the matrix is specified on.

Methods

base_matrix()[source]

Return the matrix defined on the internal subsystems.

matrix(ordered_subsystems=None)

Build the matrix for the operator relative to the ordered subsystems.

remove_subsystems(subsystems)

Return operator with subsystems removed.

Components of operators with support on removed subsystems will be set to 0.

Return type:

AbstractSubsystemOperator

restrict_subsystems(subsystems)

Reduce the operator to the list of subsystems.

Components of operators with support on removed subsystems will be set to 0.

Return type:

AbstractSubsystemOperator

Attributes

subsystems

Get the subsystems the operator acts on.
