| contents | The incompatibility of measurements is the key feature of quantum theory that distinguishes it from the classical description of nature. Here, we consider groups of d-outcome quantum observables with prime d represented by non-Hermitian unitary operators whose eigenvalues are d'th roots of unity. We additionally assume that these observables mutually commute up to a scalar factor being one of the d'th roots of unity. By representing commutation relations of these observables via a frustration graph, we show that for such a group, there exists a single unitary transforming them into a tensor product of generalized Pauli matrices and some ancillary mutually commuting operators. Building on this result, we derive upper bounds on the sum of the squares of the absolute values and the sum of the expected values of the observables forming a group. We finally utilize these bounds to compute the generalized geometric measure of entanglement for qudit stabilizer subspaces. |
