Invariant Vector Representation of a Qutrit in a Cascade Model

Abstract

The qutrit state density matrix is of order 3 and depends on eight parameters in the most general case. Visualization of this 8-D state space is practically impossible with commonly used 8-D vectors. Recently, a 3-D vector representation of the qutrit state space (also called invariant vector representation [IVR]) was proposed. In this report, we present the time evolution of the IVR vectors for the qutrit cascade or model to emphasize the advantages of the IVR.
