Let ${\mathfrak H}_A$, ${\mathfrak H}_B$, and ${\mathfrak H}$ be Hilbert spaces. Let $A$ be a linear relation from ${\mathfrak H}$ to ${\mathfrak H}_A$ and let $B$ be a linear relation from ${\mathfrak H}$ to ${\mathfrak H}_B$. If there…
It is proposed to give up the description of physical states in terms of ensembles of state vectors with various probabilities, relying instead solely on the density matrix as the description of reality. With this definition of a physical…
For $\alpha,z>0$ with $\alpha\ne1$, motivated by comparison between different kinds of R\'enyi divergences in quantum information, we consider log-majorization between the matrix functions \begin{align*}…
We consider the following decision problem DMAX#SAT, and generalizations thereof: given a quantifier-free propositional formula $F(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y})$, where $\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y}$ are tuples of variables, and a bound $B$, determine if…
We establish a sharp quantum advantage in determining the parity (even/odd) of an unknown permutation applied to any number $n \ge 3$ of particles. Classically, this is impossible with fewer than $n$ labels, being that the success is…
We derive a quantum extension of the thermodynamic uncertainty relation where dynamical fluctuations are quantified by the Terletsky-Margenau-Hill quasiprobability, a quantum generalization of the classical joint probability. The obtained…
Topos quantum theory provides representations of quantum states as direct generalizations of the probability distribution, namely probability valuation. In this article, we consider extensions of a known bijective correspondence between…
In the Bayesian approach to probability theory, probability quantifies a degree of belief for a single trial, without any a priori connection to limiting frequencies. In this paper we show that, despite being prescribed by a fundamental…
This paper studies decision making for Walley's partially consonant belief functions (pcb). In a pcb, the set of foci are partitioned. Within each partition, the foci are nested. The pcb class includes probability functions and possibility…
Definitions and notations with historical references are given for some numerical coefficients commonly used to quantify relations among collections of objects for the purpose of expressing approximate knowledge and probabilistic reasoning.
The concept of a superposition is a revolutionary novelty introduced by Quantum Mechanics. If a system may be in any one of two pure states x and y, we must consider that it may also be in any one of many superpositions of x and y. An…
Quantile matching is a strictly monotone transformation that sends the observed response values $\{y_1, . . . , y_n\}$ to the quantiles of a given target distribution. A likelihood based criterion is developed for comparing one target…
It is shown that a wide range of probabilities and limiting probabilities in finite classical groups have integral coefficients when expanded as a power series in 1/q. Moreover it is proved that the coefficients of the limiting…
A finite dimensional quantum system for which the quantum chaos conjecture applies has eigenstates, which show the same statistical properties than the column vectors of random orthogonal or unitary matrices. Here, we consider the different…
Complementarity and entanglement are fundamental features of Quantum Mechanics that were recently related in triality equalities that involve quantum coherence, the wave aspect of a qubit, and quantum predictability and quantum…
In this paper, the following scenario is considered: there are two qubits possessed by two parties at different locations. Qubits have been prepared in one of a maximum of four, mutually-orthogonal, entangled states and the parties wish to…
We generalize the classical probability frame by adopting a wider family of random variables that includes nondeterministic ones. The frame that emerges is known to host a ''classical'' extension of quantum mechanics. We discuss the notion…
We prove the open question posed by Zhuang and Hu in Remark 3.1. More generally, we consider symmetric joint probability mass functions and joint densities whose associated quadratic form is non-negative. In this class, for every \(r>0\),…
In spite of enormous theoretical and experimental progresses in quantum uncertainty relations, the experimental investigation of most current, and universal formalism of uncertainty relations, namely majorization uncertainty relations…
We consider positive, integral-preserving linear operators acting on $L^1$ space, known as stochastic operators or Markov operators. We show that, on finite-dimensional spaces, any stochastic operator can be approximated by a sequence of…
