Examples of quantum braided groups

Hlavatý, Ladislav

Similarity:

Summary: The author gives the defining relations of a new type of bialgebras that generalize both the quantum groups and braided groups as well as the quantum supergroups. The relations of the algebras are determined by a pair of matrices ( R , Z ) that solve a system of Yang-Baxter-type equations. The matrix coproduct and counit are of standard matrix form, however, the multiplication in the tensor product of the algebra is defined by virtue of the braiding map given by the matrix Z . Besides...

Another formulation of the Wick’s theorem. Farewell, pairing?

Igor V. Beloussov (2015)

Special Matrices

Similarity:

The algebraic formulation of Wick’s theorem that allows one to present the vacuum or thermal averages of the chronological product of an arbitrary number of field operators as a determinant (permanent) of the matrix is proposed. Each element of the matrix is the average of the chronological product of only two operators. This formulation is extremely convenient for practical calculations in quantum field theory, statistical physics, and quantum chemistry by the standard packages of the...

Generalizations of Nekrasov matrices and applications

Ljiljana Cvetković, Vladimir Kostić, Maja Nedović (2015)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper we present a nonsingularity result which is a generalization of Nekrasov property by using two different permutations of the index set. The main motivation comes from the following observation: matrices that are Nekrasov matrices up to the same permutations of rows and columns, are nonsingular. But, testing all the permutations of the index set for the given matrix is too expensive. So, in some cases, our new nonsingularity criterion allows us to use the results already...

Contractible quantum Arens-Michael algebras

Nina V. Volosova (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We consider quantum analogues of locally convex spaces in terms of the non-coordinate approach. We introduce the notions of a quantum Arens-Michael algebra and a quantum polynormed module, and also quantum versions of projectivity and contractibility. We prove that a quantum Arens-Michael algebra is contractible if and only if it is completely isomorphic to a Cartesian product of full matrix C*-algebras. Similar results in the framework of traditional (non-quantum) approach are established,...

Natural quantum operational semantics with predicates

Marek Sawerwain, Roman Gielerak (2008)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

A general definition of a quantum predicate and quantum labelled transition systems for finite quantum computation systems is presented. The notion of a quantum predicate as a positive operator-valued measure is developed. The main results of this paper are a theorem about the existence of generalised predicates for quantum programs defined as completely positive maps and a theorem about the existence of a GSOS format for quantum labelled transition systems. The first theorem is a slight...
