Problem

(a) Apply the determinant test c00c11−c01c10c_{00}c_{11}-c_{01}c_{10} to each of the following states, and factorise each one that turns out to be a product state: (i) (∣00⟩+i∣01⟩+i∣10⟩−∣11⟩)/2\big(|00\rangle+i|01\rangle+i|10\rangle-|11\rangle\big)/2; (ii) (∣00⟩+∣01⟩+∣10⟩)/3\big(|00\rangle+|01\rangle+|10\rangle\big)/\sqrt3; (iii) (3∣00⟩+∣01⟩+3∣10⟩+∣11⟩)/(22)\big(\sqrt3|00\rangle+|01\rangle+\sqrt3|10\rangle+|11\rangle\big)/(2\sqrt2). (b) Show, using 4×44\times4 matrices, that CNOT (H⊗I)∣11⟩=∣Ψ−⟩\mathrm{CNOT}\,(H\otimes I)|11\rangle=|\Psi^-\rangle.
