Isometries of the qubit state space with respect to quantum Wasserstein distances

Abstract

In this paper we study isometries of quantum Wasserstein distances and divergences on the quantum bit state space. We describe isometries with respect to the symmetric quantum Wasserstein divergence $d_{sym}$, the divergence induced by all of the Pauli matrices. We also give a complete characterization of isometries with respect to $D_z$, the quantum Wasserstein distance corresponding to the single Pauli matrix ${\sigma }_z$.
