pygsti.vec_to_stdmx

pygsti.vec_to_stdmx(v, basis)

Convert a vector in the given basis to a matrix in the standard basis.

A convenience function for calling [pp,gm,std]vec_to_stdmx(v) based on the value of basis.

Parameters:
  • v (numpy array) – The vector
  • basis ({“std”, “gm”, “pp”}) – The abbreviation for the basis used to interpret v (“gm” = Gell-Mann, “pp” = Pauli-product, “std” = matrix unit, or standard).
