Embeddings of spaces of quregisters into special linear groups

We study embeddings of the unit sphere of complex Hilbert spaces of dimension a power $2^n$ into the corresponding groups of non-singular linear transformations. For the case of $n=1$, the sphere $S_2$ of qubits is identified with $\mbox{SU}(2)$ and the algebraic structure of this last group is carried into $S_2$. Hence it is natural to analyse whether is it possible, for $n\geq 2$, to carry the structure of the symmetry group $\mbox{SU}(2^n)$ into the unit sphere $S_{2^n}$. For $n=2$ the embeddings of $S_{2^2}$ into $\mbox{GL}(2^2)$, obtained as tensor products of the above embedding, fails to determine a bijection between $S_{2^2}$ and $\mbox{SU}(2^2)$, but they determine entanglement measures consistent with von Neumann entropy.

Quregisters, symmetry groups and Clifford algebras

The Clifford algebra over the three-dimensional real linear space includes its linear structure and its exterior algebra, the subspaces spanned by multivectors of the same degree determine a gradation of the Clifford algebra. Through these geometric notions, natural one-to-one and two-to-one homomorphisms from $\mbox{SO}(3)$ into $\mbox{SU}(2)$ are built conventionally, and the set of qubits, is identified with a subgroup of $\mbox{SU}(2)$. These constructions are suitable to be extended to corresponding tensor powers. The notions of qubits, quregisters and qugates are translated into the language of symmetry groups. The corresponding elements to entangled states in the tensor product of Hilber spaces. realise a notion of entanglement in the tensor product of symmetry groups.
