How to give aplot title while plotting a Bloch sphere using QuTiP
I am plotting a Bloch sphere figure using QuTiP. I want to give it a title. How can I do this? I searched on Google but could not find an answer.

QuTiP allows for two different versions,Bloch
orBloch3d
. You would benefit from showing a minimal example code where you are unable to give your sphere a title, to avoid ambiguities and allow someone to give a definitive answer.

You will need to render the Bloch sphere to an axes in a 3D figure in matploltib.
Below is an example of how to do this:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import quitp
# needs Axes3D object to activate the '3d' projection
from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(5, 5), subplot_kw=dict(projection='3d'))
ax.axis('square') # to get a nice circular plot
b1 = qutip.Bloch(fig=fig, axes=ax)
b1.add_states(qutip.sigmax()/2)
b1.zlabel = ['z', '']
b1.render(fig=fig, axes=ax) # render to the correct subplot
# set title for the axis
ax.set_title('TITLE goes here', y=1.1, fontsize=20)
# You can anything else you want to the axis as well!
ax.annotate('TEXT', xy=(0.1, 0.9), xytext=(0.1, 0.7), xycoords='axes fraction',
fontsize=15, color='r', ha='center',)
plt.show()
Here is the output:
Ideally, once we set the fig
and ax
in the call to Bloch
, it should have automatically plotted to the correct axes, but the render
function is set by default to fig=None, axis=None
. This is a possibly a small bug.

b1 = qutip.Bloch(fig=fig, axes=ax)
b1.add_states(qutip.sigmax()/2)
b1.zlabel = ['z', '']
b1.render(fig=fig, axes=ax) # render to the correct subplot
# set title for the axis
ax.set_title('TITLE goes here', y=1.1, fontsize=20)
# You can anything else you want to the axis as well!
ax.annotate('TEXT', xy=(0.1, 0.9), xytext=(0.1, 0.7), xycoords='axes fraction',
fontsize=15, color='r', ha='center',)
plt.show()
Here is the output:
