Quantizations and symbolic calculus over the p -adic numbers

Shai Haran (1993)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We develop the basic theory of the Weyl symbolic calculus of pseudodifferential operators over the p -adic numbers. We apply this theory to the study of elliptic operators over the p -adic numbers and determine their asymptotic spectral behavior.

Quantum Bochner theorems and incompatible observables

Robin L. Hudson (2010)

Kybernetika

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...

Quantum detailed balance conditions with time reversal: the finite-dimensional case

Franco Fagnola, Veronica Umanità (2011)

Banach Center Publications

We classify generators of quantum Markov semigroups on (h), with h finite-dimensional and with a faithful normal invariant state ρ satisfying the standard quantum detailed balance condition with an anti-unitary time reversal θ commuting with ρ, namely t r ( ρ 1 / 2 x ρ t 1 / 2 ( y ) ) = t r ( ρ 1 / 2 θ y * θ ρ t 1 / 2 ( θ x * θ ) ) for all x,y ∈ and t ≥ 0. Our results also show that it is possible to find a standard form for the operators in the Lindblad representation of the generators extending the standard form of generators of quantum Markov semigroups satisfying the usual...

Quantum Itô algebra and quantum martingale

Viacheslav Belavkin, Un Cig Ji (2007)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper, we study a representation of the quantum Itô algebra in Fock space and then by using a noncommutative Radon-Nikodym type theorem we study the density operators of output states as quantum martingales, where the output states are absolutely continuous with respect to an input (vacuum) state. Then by applying quantum martingale representation we prove that the density operators of regular, absolutely continuous output states belong to the commutant of the ⋆-algebra parameterizing the...

Quantum mechanics and nonabelian theta functions for the gauge group SU(2)

Răzvan Gelca, Alejandro Uribe (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We propose a direction of study of nonabelian theta functions by establishing an analogy between the Weyl quantization of a one-dimensional particle and the metaplectic representation on the one hand, and the quantization of the moduli space of flat connections on a surface and the representation of the mapping class group on the space of nonabelian theta functions on the other. We exemplify this with the cases of classical theta functions and of the nonabelian theta functions for the gauge group...

Quantum random walk revisited

Kalyan B. Sinha (2006)

Banach Center Publications

In the framework of the symmetric Fock space over L²(ℝ₊), the details of the approximation of the four fundamental quantum stochastic increments by the four appropriate spin-matrices are studied. Then this result is used to prove the strong convergence of a quantum random walk as a map from an initial algebra 𝓐 into 𝓐 ⊗ ℬ (Fock(L²(ℝ₊))) to a *-homomorphic quantum stochastic flow.

Quantum stochastic calculus on full Fock space

Michael Skeide (1998)

Banach Center Publications

We present a new version of integration of time-adapted processes with respect to creation, annihilation and conservation processes on the full Fock space. Among the new features, in the first place, there is a new formulation of adaptedness which is both simpler and more general than the known ones. The new adaptedness allows for processes which are not restricted to be elements of some norm closure of the ∗-algebra which is generated by the basic creation processes.

Quantum stochastic convolution cocycles -algebraic and C*-algebraic

J. Martin Lindsay, Adam G. Skalski (2006)

Banach Center Publications

We summarise recent results concerning quantum stochastic convolution cocycles in two contexts-purely algebraic and C*-algebraic. In each case the class of cocycles arising as the solution of a quantum stochastic differential equation is characterised and the form taken by the stochastic generator of a *-homomorphic cocycle is described. Throughout the paper a common viewpoint on the algebraic and C*-algebraic situations is emphasised; the final section treats the unifying example of convolution...

Quantum stochastic processes arising from the strong resolvent limits of the Schrödinger evolution in Fock space

Alexander Chebotarev, Dmitry Victorov (1998)

Banach Center Publications

By using F. A. Berezin's canonical transformation method [5], we derive a nonadapted quantum stochastic differential equation (QSDE) as an equation for the strong limit of the family of unitary groups satisfying the Schrödinger equation with singularly degenerating Hamiltonians in Fock space. Stochastic differentials of QSDE generate a nonadapted associative Ito multiplication table, and the coefficients of these differentials satisfy the formal unitarity conditions of the Hudson-Parthasarathy type...
