Zauner–Appleby conjecture on Weyl–Heisenberg SIC fiducials
Zauner–Appleby conjecture on Weyl–Heisenberg SIC fiducials
Let be the Zauner unitary associated with the Zauner symplectic matrix
A Weyl–Heisenberg SIC fiducial is a fiducial vector generating a symmetric informationally complete measurement under Weyl–Heisenberg translations. Zauner–Appleby conjecture. In every -dimensional Hilbert space, there exists a Weyl–Heisenberg SIC fiducial that is an eigenvector in the largest eigenspace of . This symmetry prediction is supported by all dimensions in which exhaustive searches have been performed, but remains open in general.
