A problem of completing a linear map on C*-algebras to a completely positive map is analyzed. It is shown that whenever such a completion is feasible there exists a unique minimal completion. This theorem is used to show that under some…

In this work, we derive a quantum information theoretic quantity similar to the Leggett-Garg inequality, which can be defined in terms of neutrino transition probabilities. For the case of $\nu_\mu \to \nu_e/\bar{\nu}_\mu\to\bar{\nu}_e$…

In this note, we show that if $N$ is an odd perfect number and $q^{\alpha}$ is some prime power exactly dividing it, then $\sigma(N/q^{\alpha})/q^{\alpha}>5$. In general, we also show that if $\sigma(N/q^{\alpha})/q^{\alpha}<K$, where $K$…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital semisimple commutative Banach algebras and $T$ a map from the invertible group $A^{-1}$ onto $B^{-1}$. Linearity and multiplicativity of the map are not assumed. We consider the hypotheses on $T$: (1) $\sigma…

Let $A,B\in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ be such that $0<b_{1}I \leq A \leq a_{1}I$ and $0<b_{2}I \leq B \leq a_{2}I$ for some scalars $0<b_{i}< a_{i},\;\; i=1,2$ and $\Phi:\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})\rightarrow\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{K})$ be a…

We consider the Euler-Lagrange equation of Sobolev trace inequality and prove several classification results. Exploiting the moving sphere method, it has been shown, when $p=2$, positive solutions of Euler-Lagrange equation of Sobolev trace…

Recently it was shown that if a given state fulfils the reduction criterion it must also satisfy the known entropic inequalities. Now the questions arises whether on the assumption that stronger criteria based on positive but not completely…

Working with the simple types over a base type of natural numbers (including product types), we consider the question of when a type $\sigma$ is encodable as a definable retract of $\tau$: that is, when there are $\lambda$-terms…

The trace norm of a matrix is the sum of its singular values. This paper presents results on the minimum trace norm $\psi_{n}\left( m\right) $ of $\left( 0,1\right) $-matrices of size $n\times n$ with exactly $m$ ones. It is shown that: (1)…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a positive compact operator $T$ for the existence of a singular trace (i.e. a trace vanishing on the finite rank operators) which takes a finite non-zero value on $T$. This generalizes…

The relation $Tr \gamma_{5}= 0$ implies the contribution to the trace from unphysical (would-be) species doublers in lattice gauge theory. This statement is also true for the Pauli-Villars regularization in continuum theory. If one insists…

In this paper we deal with a class of inequalities which interpolate the Kato's inequality and the Hardy's inequality in the half space. Starting from the classical Hardy's inequality in the half space $\rnpiu =\R^{n-1}\times(0,\infty)$, we…

In this paper we show that for a non-negative operator monotone function $f$ on $[0, \infty)$ such that $f(0)= 0$ and for any positive semidefinite matrices $A$ and $B$, $$ Tr((A-B)(f(A)-f(B))) \le Tr(|A-B|f(|A-B|)). $$ When the function…

Equivalence between Positive Partial Transpose (PPT) entanglement and bound entanglement is a long-standing open problem in quantum information theory. So far limited progress has been made, even on the seemingly simple case of Werner…

Completely positive trace-preserving maps $S$, also known as quantum channels, arise in quantum physics as a description of how the density operator $\rho$ of a system changes in a given time interval, allowing not only for unitary…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite index subgroup of the mapping class group $MCG(\Sigma)$ of a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$, possibly with punctures. We give a precise condition (in terms of the Nielsen-Thurston decomposition) when an element…

It is known that every complex trace-zero matrix is the sum of four square-zero matrices, but not necessarily of three such matrices. In this note, we prove that for every trace-zero matrix $A$ over an arbitrary field, there is a…

We shall prove the following Stinespring-type theorem: there exists a triple $(\pi,\mathcal{H},\mathbf{V})$ associated with an unital completely positive map $\Phi:\mathfrak{A}\rightarrow \mathfrak{A}$ on C* algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ with…

In this Thesis, several results in quantum information theory are collected, most of which use entropy as the main mathematical tool. *While a direct generalization of the Shannon entropy to density matrices, the von Neumann entropy behaves…
