Phys. Rev. A 71, 062323 (2005) [7 pages]Local unitary versus local Clifford equivalence of stabilizer states
Maarten Van den Nest, Jeroen Dehaene, and Bart De Moor Received 22 November 2004; published 20 June 2005 We study the relation between local unitary (LU) equivalence and local Clifford (LC) equivalence of stabilizer states. We introduce a large subclass of stabilizer states, such that every two LU equivalent states in this class are necessarily LC equivalent. Together with earlier results, this shows that LC, LU, and stochastic local operation with classical communication equivalence are the same notions for this class of stabilizer states. Moreover, recognizing whether two given stabilizer states in the present subclass are locally equivalent only requires a polynomial number of operations in the number of qubits. ©2005 The American Physical Society
