Abstract:
Visual representation is essential to share ideas, interpret previous achievements or formulate new algorithms quickly and intuitively. Fractal representations of multi-qubit systems can visualize individual qubits even in case of entanglement. The proposed representation can be used to easily determine measurement probabilities. Connections with density matrices for pure and mixed states are also discussed. Finally, we visualize the effects of several single-qubit gates and controlled gates.
