Abstract

In a previous paper [1] an Euler angle parametrization for SU(4) was given. Here we present the derivation of a generalized Euler angle parametrization for SU(N). The formula for the calculation of the Haar measure for SU(N) as well as its relation to Marinov's volume formula for SU(N) [2, 3] will also be derived. As an example of this parametrization's usefulness, the density matrix parametrization and invariant volume element for a qubit/qutrit, three qubit and two three-state systems, also known as two qutrit systems [4], will also be given.
