A unified conceptual foundation of classical and quantum physics is given, free of undefined terms. Ensembles are defined by extending the `probability via expectation' approach of Whittle to noncommuting quantities. This approach carries…
We propose new quantum algorithms for estimating spectral sums of positive semi-definite (PSD) matrices. The spectral sum of an PSD matrix $A$, for a function $f$, is defined as $ \text{Tr}[f(A)] = \sum_j f(\lambda_j)$, where $\lambda_j$…

We introduce the notion of order-preserving multi-homogeneous mapping which allows to study Perron-Frobenius type theorems and nonnegative tensors in unified fashion. We prove a weak and strong Perron-Frobenius theorem for these maps and…
The spectral gap of local random quantum circuits is a fundamental property that determines how close the moments of the circuit's unitaries match those of a Haar random distribution. When studying spectral gaps, it is common to bound these…
We introduce and systematically develop the theory of \emph{quantum doubly stochastic operators}, i.e. positive, trace-preserving maps on non-commutative $L_p$-spaces associated to semifinite von Neumann algebras. After establishing basic…
We consider the quantum site percolation model on graphs with an amenable group action. It consists of a random family of Hamiltonians. Basic spectral properties of these operators are derived: non-randomness of the spectrum and its…

The phenomenology for the deep spatial geometry of loop quantum gravity is discussed. In the context of a simple model of an atom of space, it is shown how purely combinatorial structures can affect observations. The angle operator is used…
