Properties of QBist State Spaces (2009)

Appleby, D. M., Ericsson, Asa, Fuchs, Christopher A.

Every quantum state can be represented as a probability distribution over the outcomes of an informationally complete measurement. But not all probability distributions correspond to quantum states....

Effects of the $g$-factor in semi-classical kinetic plasma theory (2008)

Brodin, Gert, Marklund, Mattias, Zamanian, Jens, Ericsson, Asa, Mana, Piero L.

A kinetic theory for spin plasmas is put forward, generalizing those of previous authors. In the model, the ordinary phase space is extended to include the spin degrees of freedom. Together with...

Mubs and Hadamards of Order Six (2006)

Bengtsson, Ingemar, Bruzda, Wojciech, Ericsson, Asa, Larsson, Jan-Ake, Tadej, Wojciech, Zyczkowski, Karol

We report on a search for mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) in 6 dimensions. We find only triplets of MUBs, and thus do not come close to the theoretical upper bound 7. However, we point out that the...

Geodesics and the best measurement for distinguishing quantum states (2005)

Ericsson, Asa

From statistical distinguishability of probability distributions, one can define distinguishability of quantum states. A corresponding measurement to perform, optimal in a definite sense, for...

Mutually Unbiased Bases and The Complementarity Polytope (2004)

Bengtsson, Ingemar, Ericsson, Asa

A complete set of N+1 mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) forms a convex polytope in the N^2-1 dimensional space of NxN Hermitian matrices of unit trace. As a geometrical object such a polytope exists for...

Birkhoff's polytope and unistochastic matrices, N=3 and N=4 (2004)

Bengtsson, Ingemar, Ericsson, Asa, Kus, Marek, Tadej, Wojciech, Zyczkowski, Karol

The set of bistochastic or doubly stochastic N by N matrices form a convex set called Birkhoff's polytope, that we describe in some detail. Our problem is to characterize the set of unistochastic...

How to mix a density matrix (2002)

Bengtsson, Ingemar, Ericsson, Asa

A given density matrix may be represented in many ways as a mixture of pure states. We show how any density matrix may be realized as a uniform ensemble. It has been conjectured that one may realize...

Supervisors Mats Dahllof, Uppsala University (2001)

Asa Ericsson, Dobedo Ab

This thesis deals with the development of an Internet chat word predictor. A word predictor guesses what word a user is typing, based on previously written words and pre x letters of the current...

Cost Effectiveness of Budesonide/Formoterol in a Single Inhaler for COPD Compared with Each Monocomponent Used Alone

Claes-Goran Lofdahl, Asa Ericsson, Klas Svensson, Emma Andreasson

Objective: To compare the healthcare costs and effects of budesonide/formoterol in a single inhaler with those of budesonide and formoterol monotherapies, and placebo, in a multinational study in...
