Quantum tomography of three-qubit generalized Werner states

Abstract

In this article, we introduce a numerical framework for quantum tomography and entanglement quantification of three-qubit generalized Werner states. The scheme involves the single-qubit SIC-POVM, which is then generalized to perform three-qubit measurements. We introduce random errors into the scheme by imposing the Poisson noise on the measured photon counts. The precision of state estimation is quantified and presented on graphs. As a special case, we compare the efficiency of the framework for the pure three-qubit generalized Werner state and the W state. The reconstructed states are presented graphically and discussed.
