<Function id="qiskit.visualization.plot_state_city" isDedicatedPage={true} github="https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit/tree/stable/1.2/qiskit/visualization/state_visualization.py#L360-L608" signature="qiskit.visualization.plot_state_city(state, title='', figsize=None, color=None, alpha=1, ax_real=None, ax_imag=None, *, filename=None)">
|
||
Plot the cityscape of quantum state.
|
||
|
||
Plot two 3d bar graphs (two dimensional) of the real and imaginary part of the density matrix rho.
|
||
|
||
**Parameters**
|
||
|
||
* **state** ([*Statevector*](qiskit.quantum_info.Statevector "qiskit.quantum_info.Statevector") *or*[*DensityMatrix*](qiskit.quantum_info.DensityMatrix "qiskit.quantum_info.DensityMatrix") *or ndarray*) – an N-qubit quantum state.
|
||
* **title** ([*str*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#str "(in Python v3.13)")) – a string that represents the plot title
|
||
* **figsize** ([*tuple*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#tuple "(in Python v3.13)")) – Figure size in inches.
|
||
* **color** ([*list*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#list "(in Python v3.13)")) – A list of len=2 giving colors for real and imaginary components of matrix elements.
|
||
* **alpha** ([*float*](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#float "(in Python v3.13)")) – Transparency value for bars
|
||
* **ax\_real** ([*matplotlib.axes.Axes*](https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.axes.Axes.html#matplotlib.axes.Axes "(in Matplotlib v3.9.2)")) – An optional Axes object to be used for the visualization output. If none is specified a new matplotlib Figure will be created and used. If this is specified without an ax\_imag only the real component plot will be generated. Additionally, if specified there will be no returned Figure since it is redundant.
|
||
* **ax\_imag** ([*matplotlib.axes.Axes*](https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.axes.Axes.html#matplotlib.axes.Axes "(in Matplotlib v3.9.2)")) – An optional Axes object to be used for the visualization output. If none is specified a new matplotlib Figure will be created and used. If this is specified without an ax\_real only the imaginary component plot will be generated. Additionally, if specified there will be no returned Figure since it is redundant.
|
||
|
||
**Returns**
|
||
|
||
The matplotlib.Figure of the visualization if the `ax_real` and `ax_imag` kwargs are not set
|
||
|
||
**Return type**
|
||
|
||
[`matplotlib.figure.Figure`](https://matplotlib.org/stable/api/_as_gen/matplotlib.figure.Figure.html#matplotlib.figure.Figure "(in Matplotlib v3.9.2)")
|
||
|
||
**Raises**
|
||
|
||
* [**MissingOptionalLibraryError**](exceptions#qiskit.exceptions.MissingOptionalLibraryError "qiskit.exceptions.MissingOptionalLibraryError") – Requires matplotlib.
|
||
* [**ValueError**](https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#ValueError "(in Python v3.13)") – When ‘color’ is not a list of len=2.
|
||
* [**VisualizationError**](visualization#qiskit.visualization.VisualizationError "qiskit.visualization.VisualizationError") – if input is not a valid N-qubit state.
|
||
|
||
**Examples**
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
# You can choose different colors for the real and imaginary parts of the density matrix.
|
||
|
||
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
|
||
from qiskit.quantum_info import DensityMatrix
|
||
from qiskit.visualization import plot_state_city
|
||
|
||
qc = QuantumCircuit(2)
|
||
qc.h(0)
|
||
qc.cx(0, 1)
|
||
|
||
state = DensityMatrix(qc)
|
||
plot_state_city(state, color=['midnightblue', 'crimson'], title="New State City")
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
# You can make the bars more transparent to better see the ones that are behind
|
||
# if they overlap.
|
||
|
||
import numpy as np
|
||
from qiskit.quantum_info import Statevector
|
||
from qiskit.visualization import plot_state_city
|
||
from qiskit import QuantumCircuit
|
||
|
||
qc = QuantumCircuit(2)
|
||
qc.h(0)
|
||
qc.cx(0, 1)
|
||
|
||
|
||
qc = QuantumCircuit(2)
|
||
qc.h([0, 1])
|
||
qc.cz(0,1)
|
||
qc.ry(np.pi/3, 0)
|
||
qc.rx(np.pi/5, 1)
|
||
|
||
state = Statevector(qc)
|
||
plot_state_city(state, alpha=0.6)
|
