Zapatrin in the quant-ph/0010104 show possibility to express general state of $l$-qubits quantum register as sum at most $2^l-l$ product states. In the comment is suggested more simple construction with possibility of generalization for decomposition of tensor product of Hilbert spaces with arbitrary dimension $n$ (here simplicial complexes used in the article mentioned above would not be applied directly). In this case it is decomposition with $n^l-(n^2-n)l/2$ product states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2000-11-09T22:25:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "pure states", "decomposition", "product states", "qubits quantum register", "express general state" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 1, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000quant.ph.11017V" } } }
