Description

This minor release adds a function to calculate the quantum relative entropy, fixes a corner case in handling time-dependent Hamiltonians in mesolve and adds back support for a wider range of matplotlib versions when plotting or animating Bloch spheres.

It also adds a section in the README listing the papers which should be referenced while citing QuTiP.

Improvements
  • Added a "Citing QuTiP" section to the README, containing a link to the QuTiP papers. (#1554)
  • Added entropy_relative which returns the quantum relative entropy between two density matrices. (#1553)
Bug Fixes
  • Fixed Bloch sphere distortion when using Matplotlib >= 3.3.0. (#1496)
  • Removed use of integer-like floats in math.factorial since it is deprecated as of Python 3.9. (#1550)
  • Simplified call to ffmpeg used in the the Bloch sphere animation tutorial to work with recent versions of ffmpeg. (#1557)
  • Removed blitting in Bloch sphere FuncAnimation example. (#1558)
  • Added a version checking condition to handle specific functionalities depending on the matplotlib version. (#1556)
  • Fixed mesolve handling of time-dependent Hamiltonian with a custom tlist and c_ops. (#1561)
Developer Changes
  • Read documentation version and release from the VERSION file.
