General Basis State Transformations

Learn the mathematical formulation of changing one general basis system into another and how that impacts the measurement results of the quantum states.

So far, we have used rather specific basis states. Let’s now write out a more general relationship. Suppose that Alice wants to use a basis labeled AA, and I want to use one labeled BB. The basis states are A0|A_0⟩ and A1|A_1⟩ for basis AA and B0|B_0⟩ and B1|B_1⟩ for basis BB.
