Interference of Quantum Channels

Abstract

We show how interferometry can be used to characterise certain aspects of general quantum processes, in particular, the coherence of completely positive maps. We derive a measure of coherent fidelity, maximum interference visibility and the closest unitary operator to a given physical process under this measure.
