Sided product superoperator in the spherical tensor basis set. Returns superoperators corresponding to right or left multiplication of a density matrix by a user-specified operator.
Syntax
A=superop(spin_system,opspec,side)
Arguments
opspec - Spinach operator specification described in Sections 2.1
and 3.3 of the following paper:
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jmr.2010.11.008
side - 'left' or 'right' causes the function to return a product
superoperator corresponding to a product from that side;
'comm' or 'acomm' results in commutation and anticommuta-
tion superoperator respectively.
Outputs
A - a three-column array of row indices (first column),
column indices (second column) and values (third column).
Examples
See examples in the Spinach distribution relevant to this function.
Notes
This is a very general function to which direct calls are not usually required; use the friendlier operator.m function where possible.
The superoperator is returned in XYZ sparse format, which is different from Matlab's CSC sparse format.
