Answer by DaftWullie for How to change the sign of a phase: sending...

This very much depends on whether you know the phase $\alpha$ (which I assume is not intended to be the same as the amplitude $\alpha$!).If you do not know the phase $\alpha$, then the operation that...

How to change the sign of a phase: sending...

Say I have a qubit in the state (ignoring normalization) $$|\phi\rangle = \alpha|0\rangle + e^{i\alpha}\beta|1\rangle.$$How can I invert the sign of its phase, thus making it $$\alpha|0\rangle +...
