&amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;MaximumOutputFidelity&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt; is a [[List of functions|function]] that computes the maximum output fidelity between two quantum channels $\Phi$ and $\Psi$, defined as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;F_{max}(\Phi,\Psi) := \max_{\rho,\sigma}\big\{F(\Phi(\rho),\Psi(\sigma)) : \rho,\sigma \text{ are density matrices}\big\},&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
where $F(\cdot,\cdot)$ is the usual [[fidelity]] between quantum states.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Syntax==&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;MOF = MaximumOutputFidelity(PHI,PSI)&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;MOF = MaximumOutputFidelity(PHI,PSI,DIM_PHI)&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;MOF = MaximumOutputFidelity(PHI,PSI,DIM_PHI,DIM_PSI)&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Argument descriptions==&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PHI,PSI&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;: Quantum channels, represented as either Choi matrices or cells of Kraus operators.&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;DIM_PHI,DIM_PSI&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt; (optional): 1-by-2 vectors containing the input and output dimensions of &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PHI&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PSI&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt;, respectively. These arguments must be provided if and only if &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PHI&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;tt&amp;gt;PSI&amp;lt;/tt&amp;gt; are provided as Choi matrices and they have unequal input and output dimensions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Examples==&lt;br /&gt;
The following code computes the minimum output fidelity of a random qutrit channel $\Psi$ with the identity channel:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;syntaxhighlight&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&amp;gt; d = 3;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Phi = {eye(d)};&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Psi = RandomSuperoperator(d);&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;gt;&amp;gt; MaximumOutputFidelity(Phi,Psi)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ans =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
    0.7638&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/syntaxhighlight&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
