Abstract

En 中文
We introduce the scalar average similarity of an ensemble of randomly polarized states. This global measure is based on the complex degree of mutual polarization between any pair of vector fields in the ensemble. We show that, in the case of fully correlated and globally unpolarized fields, the variation of this parameter is bounded, and its value can effectively discriminate between different configurations of pure states.
