Given an irreducible representation of a group G, we show that all the covariant positive operator valued measures based on G/Z, where Z is a central subgroup, are described by trace class, trace one positive operators.
It is well known that, in the description of quantum observables, positive operator valued measures (POVMs) generalize projection valued measures (PVMs) and they also turn out be more optimal in many tasks. We show that a commutative POVM…
We present a correspondence between positive operator valued measures (POVMs) and sets of generalized coherent states. Positive operator valued measures describe quantum observables and, similarly to quantum states, also quantum observables…
We study the quantum ($C^*$) convexity structure of normalized positive operator valued measures (POVMs) on measurable spaces. In particular, it is seen that unlike extreme points under classical convexity, $C^*$-extreme points of…
We consider the convex set of ( unital ) positive ( completely ) maps from a $C^*$ algebra $\cla$ to a von-Neumann sub-algebra $\clm$ of $\clb(\clh)$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\clh$ and study its extreme…
The study of $G$-equivariant operators is of great interest to explain and understand the architecture of neural networks. In this paper we show that each linear $G$-equivariant operator can be produced by a suitable permutant measure,…
We study positive operator-valued measures generated by orbits of projective unitary representations of locally compact Abelian groups. It is shown that integration over such a measure defines a family of contractions being multiples of…
We study the positive-operator-valued measures on the projective real line covariant with respect to the projective group, assuming that the energy is a positive operator. This problem is similar to the more complicated problem of finding…
In this paper we consider the unbounded local completely positive and local completely contractive maps on maximal tensor product of unital locally C*-algebras and discuss on extremal points of certain convex subsets in the set of such…
We study positive kernels on $X\times X$, where $X$ is a set equipped with an action of a group, and taking values in the set of $\mathcal A$-sesquilinear forms on a (not necessarily Hilbert) module over a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$. These…
In this work, we study a sub-collection of unital completely positive maps from a unital $C^\ast$-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ to $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ in the setting…
It is shown that the characterization of covariant positive operator measures on nonunimodular locally compact groups can be obtained by using vector measure theoretic methods, without an application of Mackey's imprimitivity theorem.
The classical Choquet theorem establishes a barycentric decomposition for elements in a compact convex subset of a locally convex topological vector space. This decomposition is achieved through a probability measure that is supported on…
We define a number of natural (from geometric and combinatorial points of view) deformation spaces of valuations on finite graphs, and study functions over these deformation spaces. These functions include both direct metric invariants…
