Non-Archimedean Zauner conjecture

At least 3 years old · documented by

Let K\mathbb{K} be a non-Archimedean field satisfying Equation (FU). For each d∈Nd\in\mathbb{N}, consider vectors τ1,…,τd2∈Kd\tau_1,\dots,\tau_{d^2}\in\mathbb{K}^d and the operator

Sτ:Kd∋x↦∑j=1d2⟨x,τj⟩τj∈Kd.S_\tau:\mathbb{K}^d\ni x\mapsto\sum_{j=1}^{d^2}\langle x,\tau_j\rangle\tau_j\in\mathbb{K}^d.

Non-Archimedean Zauner conjecture. For every d∈Nd\in\mathbb{N}, there exist such vectors satisfying ⟨τj,τj⟩=1\langle\tau_j,\tau_j\rangle=1 for all 1≤j≤d21\leq j\leq d^2, with SτS_\tau diagonalizable, and

∣⟨τj,τk⟩∣2=∣n∣,∀ 1≤j,k≤d2, j≠k.|\langle\tau_j,\tau_k\rangle|^2=|n|,\qquad\forall\,1\leq j,k\leq d^2,\ j\neq k.

This is presented as the non-Archimedean analogue of the Zauner conjecture for equiangular configurations in Hilbert spaces and related settings. The preceding question asks more generally for which pairs (d,n)(d,n) configurations satisfying the non-Archimedean Welch-bound conditions exist; the conjecture specializes to n=d2n=d^2.
