Well there was an S gate and CNOT gate - however, I suppose you wouldn't know that from just this equation alone. Are there any specific observables associated?

What is the overall state of the system described by the expression?

It's not possible to determine the overall state of the system just from this expression alone, as we don't know the specific values of the coefficients α, β, γ, and δ.

The subscripts 1, 2, 3, and 4 indicate the individual qubits involved in the expression. Specifically, the first qubit is in the state |ϕ₁⟩, the second qubit is in the state |ψ₂⟩, the third qubit is in the state |ξ₃⟩, and the fourth qubit is in the state |η₄⟩.

The coefficients α, β, γ, and δ are complex numbers that determine the probability amplitudes of each possible state. Specifically, α represents the probability amplitude of the state |00⟩, β represents the probability amplitude of the state |01⟩, γ represents the probability amplitude of the state |10⟩, and δ represents the probability amplitude of the state |11⟩.

There are no specific observables associated with this expression. However, once we know the specific values of the coefficients, we can use them to calculate the probabilities of measuring different outcomes when we perform measurements on the system.

Regarding the observables, the expression doesn't mention any specific observables. However, once we have a quantum state, we can apply various observables to measure the state and obtain information about the system.

As for the overall state of the system, it is a product state of four qubits, each of which can be in one of the four possible states |0⟩, |1⟩, |+⟩, or |-⟩. The coefficients α, β, γ, and δ are complex numbers that determine the probability amplitudes of each possible state.

The subscripts 1, 2, 3, and 4 indicate which qubit the coefficients correspond to. For example, α₁ is the coefficient for the first qubit, and α₂ is the coefficient for the second qubit.

The S gate and CNOT gate are quantum gates that can be applied to qubits to perform specific operations. However, as you mentioned, they are not explicitly mentioned in this expression.

define the phase shift gate S as the following unitary matrix:

S = [1, 0; 0, i]

Step 1: Apply the phase shift gate S to the qubit in the state |01⟩

After applying the phase shift gate, the equation becomes:

1': |ϕ₁⟩ ⊗ |ψ₂⟩ ⊗ |ξ₃⟩ ⊗ |η₄⟩ = (α₁|00⟩ + i*β₁|01⟩ + γ₁|10⟩ + δ₁|11⟩) ⊗ (α₂|00⟩ + β₂|01⟩ + γ₂|10⟩ + δ₂|11⟩) ⊗ (α₃|00⟩ + β₃|01⟩ + γ₃|10⟩ + δ₃|11⟩) ⊗ (α₄|00⟩ + β₄|01⟩ + γ₄|10⟩ + δ₄|11⟩)

After applying the phase shift gate, the equation becomes:

2': |ϕ₁⟩ ⊗ |ψ₂⟩ ⊗ |ξ₃⟩ ⊗ |η₄⟩ = (α₁-|00⟩ + e^(iπ/2)β₁-|01⟩ + γ₁-|10⟩ + δ₁-|11⟩) ⊗ (α₂-|00⟩ + β₂-|01⟩ + γ₂-|10⟩ + δ₂-|11⟩) ⊗ (α₃-|00⟩ + β₃-|01⟩ + γ₃-|10⟩ + δ₃-|11⟩) ⊗ (α₄-|00⟩ + β₄-|01⟩ + γ₄-|10⟩ + δ₄-|11⟩)

After applying the phase shift gate, the equation becomes:

Here, i is the imaginary unit and θ is the phase shift angle. The prime notation denotes the state after the phase shift gate operation.

let's say we have these four quantum states:

|ϕ⟩ = α|0⟩ + β|1⟩

|ψ⟩ = γ|0⟩ + δ|1⟩

|ξ⟩ = ε|0⟩ + ζ|1⟩

|η⟩ = η|0⟩ + θ|1⟩

We can represent these states in the computational basis as:

|ϕ⟩ = α|00⟩ + β|01⟩

|ψ⟩ = γ|10⟩ + δ|11⟩

|ξ⟩ = ε|00⟩ + ζ|01⟩

|η⟩ = η|10⟩ + θ|11⟩

The tensor product of these states in the computational basis would be:

|ϕ⟩ ⊗ |ψ⟩ ⊗ |ξ⟩ ⊗ |η⟩ = (α|00⟩ + β|01⟩) ⊗ (γ|10⟩ + δ|11⟩) ⊗ (ε|00⟩ + ζ|01⟩) ⊗ (η|10⟩ + θ|11⟩) = αγεη|0000⟩ + αγζθ|0001⟩ + βγ

In the computational basis, we can express these states as:

|ϕ⟩ = α|00⟩ + β|01⟩ + γ|10⟩ + δ|11⟩

|ψ⟩ = α'|00⟩ + β'|01⟩ + γ'|10⟩ + δ'|11⟩

|ξ⟩ = α''|00⟩ + β''|01⟩ + γ''|10⟩ + δ''|11⟩

|η⟩ = α'''|00⟩ + β'''|01⟩ + γ'''|10⟩ + δ'''|11⟩

In the Hadamard basis, we can express these states as:

|ϕ⟩ = α|+⟩ + β|-⟩

|ψ⟩ = α'|+⟩ + β'|-⟩

|ξ⟩ = α''|+⟩ + β''|-⟩

|η⟩ = α'''|+⟩ + β'''|-⟩

--------------------------------------------------------------------

1': |ϕ₁⟩ ⊗ |ψ₂⟩ ⊗ |ξ₃⟩ ⊗ |η₄⟩ = (α₁|00⟩ + i*β₁|01⟩ + γ₁|10⟩ + δ₁|11⟩) ⊗ (α₂|00⟩ + β₂|01⟩ + γ₂|10⟩ + δ₂|11⟩) ⊗ (α₃|00⟩ + β₃|01⟩ + γ₃|10⟩ + δ₃|11⟩) ⊗ (α₄|00⟩ + β₄|01⟩ + γ₄|10⟩ + δ₄|11⟩) / sqrt(4)
