Recent years have seen significant advances in the study of symmetric
informationally complete (SIC) quantum measurements, also known as maximal sets
of complex equiangular lines. Previously, the published record contained
solutions up to dimension 67, and was with high confidence complete up through
dimension 50. Computer calculations have now furnished solutions in all
dimensions up to 151, and in several cases beyond that, as large as dimension
844. These new solutions exhibit an additional type of symmetry beyond the
basic definition of a SIC, and so verify a conjecture of Zauner in many new
cases. The solutions in dimensions 68 through 121 were obtained by Andrew
Scott, and his catalogue of distinct solutions is, with high confidence,
complete up to dimension 90. Additional results in dimensions 122 through 151
were calculated by the authors using Scott's code. We recap the history of the
problem, outline how the numerical searches were done, and pose some
conjectures on how the search technique could be improved. In order to
facilitate communication across disciplinary boundaries, we also present a
comprehensive bibliography of SIC research.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figure, many references; v3: updating bibliography,
