In this paper we introduce the study of quantum boolean functions, which are unitary operators f whose square is the identity: f^2 = I. We describe several generalisations of well-known results in the theory of boolean functions, including…

We consider canonically conjugated generalized space and linear momentum operators $\hat{x}_q$ and $ \hat{p}_q$ in quantum mechanics, associated to a generalized translation operator which produces infinitesimal deformed displacements…

We construct the so-called quasiregular representations of the group $B_0^{\mathbb N}({\mathbb F}_p)$ of infinite upper triangular matrices with coefficients in a finite field and give the criteria of theirs irreducibility in terms of the…

In 1942 I. J. Schoenberg proved that a function is positive definite in the unit sphere if and only if this function is a positive linear combination of the Gegenbauer polynomials. In this paper we extend Schoenberg's theorem for…

Quantum Measure Theory (QMT) is a generalization of quantum theory where physical predictions are computed from a matrix known as \emph{decoherence functional} (DF). Previous works have noted that, in its original formulation, QMT exhibits…

Let $D,X \in B(H)$ be bounded operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$. If the commutator $[D,X] = DX-XD$ lies within $\varepsilon$ in operator norm of the identity operator $1_{B(H)}$, then it was observed by Popa that one…

We show that commutators of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms may have arbitrarily large Hofer norm. The proposed technique is applicable to positive genus surfaces and their products. This gives partial answer to a question by McDuff and…

In this paper, we study the exact multiplicity and bifurcation curves of positive solutions for the semipositone problem defined on the interval from minus one to one, with zero boundary conditions at both ends. The function f is twice…

We consider Aichinger's equation $$f(x_1+\cdots+x_{m+1})=\sum_{i=1}^{m+1}g_i(x_1,x_2,\cdots, \widehat{x_i},\cdots, x_{m+1})$$ for functions defined on commutative semigroups which take values on commutative groups. The solutions of this…

Rochberg's coboundary theorem provides conditions under which the equation $(I-T)y = x$ is solvable in $y$. Here $T$ is a unilateral shift on Hilbert space, $I$ is the identity operator and $x$ is a given vector. The conditions are…

Kiukas, Lahti and Ylinen asked the following general question. When is a positive operator measure projection valued? A version of this question formulated in terms of operator moments was posed in a recent paper of the present authors. Let…
