We consider the problem of distributed state estimation of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system by a network of sensors. We develop a distributed observer that guarantees asymptotic reconstruction of the state for the most general class of…
A time-invariant, linear, distributed observer is described for estimating the state of an $m>0$ channel, $n$-dimensional continuous-time linear system of the form $ \dot{x} = Ax,\ y_i = C_i x,\ i \in \{1,2,\cdots, m\}$. The state $x$ is…
In our previous works, we have proposed a quantum description of relativistic orientable objects by a scalar field on the Poincar\'{e} group. This description is, in a sense, a generalization of ideas used by Wigner, Casimir and Eckart back…
We treat the events determined by a quantum physical state in a noncommutative space-time, generalizing the analogous treatment in the usual Minkowski space-time based on positive-operator-valued measures (POVMs). We consider in detail the…
This paper investigates the observability of one of the most commonly used equivalent circuit models (ECMs) for lithium-ion batteries and presents a method to estimate the state of charge (SOC) in the presence of sensor biases, highlighting…
We study non-autonomous observation systems \begin{align*} \dot{x}(t) = A(t) x(t),\quad y(t) = C(t) x(t),\quad x(0) = x_0\in X, \end{align*} where $(A(t))$ is a strongly measurable family of closed operators on a Banach space $X$ and…
We show that the Reeh-Schlieder property w.r.t. the KMS-vector is a direct consequence of locality, additivity and the relativistic KMS-condition. The latter characterises the thermal equilibrium states of a relativistic quantum field…
The problem of state estimation for a system of coupled hyperbolic PDEs and ODEs with Lipschitz nonlinearities with boundary measurements is considered. An infinite dimensional observer with a linear boundary injection term is used to solve…
Static observers in curved spacetimes may interpret their proper acceleration as the opposite of a local gravitational field (in the Newtonian sense). Based on this interpretation and motivated by the equivalence principle, we are led to…
The existence of local thermal equilibrium (LTE) states for quantum field theory in the sense of Buchholz, Ojima and Roos is discussed in a model-independent setting. It is shown that for spaces of finitely many independent thermal…
The determination of the quantum state of a single system by protective observation is used to justify operationally a formulation of quantum theory on the quantum state space (projective Hilbert space) $\cal P$. Protective observation is…
Relative entropy serves as a fundamental measure of state distinguishability in both quantum information theory and relativistic quantum field theory. Despite its conceptual importance, however, explicit computations of relative entropy…
Passive states are defined as those states that do not allow for work extraction in a cyclic (unitary) process. Within the set of passive states, thermal states are the most stable ones: they maximize the entropy for a given energy, and…
Characteristics of observers in relativity theory are critically examined. For field measurements in Minkowski spacetime, the Bohr-Rosenfeld principle implies that the connection between actual (i.e., noninertial) and inertial observers…
An uniformly accelerated observer can build his proper system of coordinates in a delimited sector of the flat Minkowski spacetime. The properties of the position and time coordinate lines for such an observer are studied and compared with…
We give a simple and intuitive proof that the only states which are completely passive, i.e. those states from which work cannot be extracted even with infinitely many copies, are Gibbs states at positive temperatures. The proof makes use…
The analysis of the time evolution of unstable states which are linear superposition of other, observable, states can, in principle, be carried out in two distinct, non-equivalent ways. One of the methods, usually employed for the neutral…
A new condition, called "Local KMS Condition", characterizing states of a quantum field to which one can ascribe, at a given spacetime point, a temperature, is introduced in this article. It will be shown that the Local KMS Condition (LKMS…
Under the principle that quantum mechanical observables are invariant under relevant symmetry transformations, we explore how the usual, non-invariant quantities may capture measurement statistics. Using a relativisation mapping, viewed as…
Nonlinear observer design for systems whose state space evolves on Lie groups is considered. The proposed method is similar to previously developed nonlinear observers in that it involves propagating the state estimate using a process model…
