[docs] def matsumoto_fidelity(rho: np.ndarray, sigma: np.ndarray) -> float | np.floating: r"""Compute the Matsumoto fidelity of two density matrices [@Matsumoto_2010_Reverse]. Calculate the Matsumoto fidelity between the two density matrices `rho` and `sigma`, defined by: \[ \mathrm{tr}(\rho\#\sigma), \] where \(\#\) denotes the matrix geometric mean, which for invertible states is \[ \rho\#\sigma = \rho^{1/2}\sqrt{\rho^{-1/2}\sigma\rho^{-1/2}}\rho^{1/2}. \] For singular states it is defined by the limit \[ \rho\#\sigma = \lim_{\epsilon\to0}(\rho+\epsilon\mathbb{I})\#(+\epsilon\mathbb{I}). \] The return is a value between \(0\) and \(1\), with \(0\) corresponding to matrices `rho` and `sigma` with orthogonal support, and \(1\) corresponding to the case `rho = sigma`. The Matsumoto fidelity is a lower bound for the fidelity. Examples: Consider the following Bell state \[ u = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \left( |00 \rangle + |11 \rangle \right) \in \mathcal{X}. \] The corresponding density matrix of \(u\) may be calculated by: \[ \rho = u u^* = \frac{1}{2} \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} \in \text{D}(\mathcal{X}). \] In the event where we calculate the Matsumoto fidelity between states that are identical, we should obtain the value of \(1\). This can be observed in `|toqito⟩` as follows. ```python exec="1" source="above" import numpy as np from toqito.state_metrics import matsumoto_fidelity rho = 1 / 2 * np.array( [[1, 0, 0, 1], [0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0, 1]] ) sigma = rho print(np.around(matsumoto_fidelity(rho, sigma), decimals=2)) ``` Raises: ValueError: If matrices are not of equal dimension.
