This paper shows that alternative representations can provide better insights when dealing with design and assessment questions. More explicitly, system isomorphisms have been established that unify the density matrix approach to QRC with the representation in the space of observables using Bloch vectors associated with Gell-Mann bases. It has been shown that these vector representations yield state-affine systems (SAS) previously introduced in the classical reservoir computing literature and for which numerous theoretical results have been established. This connection has been used to show that various statements in relation to the fading memory (FMP) and the echo state (ESP) properties are independent of the representation, and also to shed some light on fundamental questions in QRC theory in finite dimensions. In particular, a necessary and sufficient condition for the ESP and FMP to hold has been formulated, and contractive quantum channels that have exclusively trivial semi-infinite solutions have been characterized in terms of the existence of input-independent fixed points.</p> <p><a href="https://uibuniversitat.zoom.us/j/99411240356"; style="word-wrap: break-word;" target="_blank">https://uibuniversitat.zoom.us/j/99411240356</a></p>; Url event:https://ifisc.uib-csic.es/en/events/seminars/quantum-reservoir-computing-in-...
