alpha(errorgen, tableau, desired_bitstring)#

First-order error generator sensitivity function for probability.

Parameters:
  • errorgen (LocalStimElementaryErrorgenLabel or LocalElementaryErrorgenLabel) – Error generator label for which to calculate sensitivity.

  • tableau (stim.Tableau) – Stim Tableau corresponding to the stabilizer state to calculate the sensitivity for.

  • desired_bitstring (str) – Bit string to calculate the sensitivity for.

Returns:

sensitivity – Linear sensitivity of the probability of the desired bitstring to the specified elementary error generator for the given stabilizer state.

Return type:

float
