By abstracting the multiplication rule for ℤ₂-graded quantum stochastic integrals, we construct a ℤ₂-graded version of the Itô Hopf algebra, based on the space of tensors over a ℤ₂-graded associative algebra. Grouplike elements of the corresponding algebra of formal power series are characterised.
A quantum version of Bochner's theorem characterising Fourier transforms of probability measures on locally compact Abelian groups gives a characterisation of the Fourier transforms of Wigner quasi-joint distributions of position and momentum. An analogous quantum Bochner theorem characterises quasi-joint distributions of components of spin. In both cases quantum states in which a true distribution exists are characterised by the intersection of two convex sets. This may be described explicitly...
