Antilinear superoperator, quantum geometric invariance, and antilinear symmetry for higher-dimensional quantum systems

We present a systematic investigation of antilinear superoperators and their applications in studying open quantum systems, particularly focusing on quantum geometric invariance, entanglement distribution, and symmetry. We study several classes of antilinear superoperators, including antilinear quantum channels, antilinearly unital superoperators, antiunitary superoperators, and generalized \(\Theta \) $\mathrm{\Theta }$ -conjugation. Using the Bloch representation, we present a systematic investigation of quantum geometric transformations in higher-dimensional quantum systems. By choosing different generalized \(\Theta \) $\mathrm{\Theta }$ -conjugations, we obtain various metrics for the space of Bloch space-time vectors, including the Euclidean and Minkowskian metrics. Utilizing these geometric structures, we then investigate the entanglement distribution over a multipartite system constrained by quantum geometric invariance. The strong and weak antilinear superoperator symmetries of the open quantum system are also discussed. Additionally, Kramers’ degeneracy and conserved quantities are examined in detail.
