Quantum mechanics predicts the joint probability distribution of the outcomes of simultaneous measurements of commuting observables, but, in the state of the art, has lacked the operational definition of simultaneous measurements. The…

We study the filtering of the perspective of a regular operator map of several variables through a completely positive linear map. By this method we are able to extend known operator inequalities of two variables to several variables; with…

We show that a partition of the unity (or POVM) on a Hilbert space that is almost orthogonal is close to an orthogonal POVM in the same von Neumann algebra. This generalizes to infinite dimension previous results in matrix algebras by…

This work studies an explicit embedding of the set of probability measures into a Hilbert space, defined using optimal transport maps from a reference probability density. This embedding linearizes to some extent the 2-Wasserstein space,…

We characterize strong type and weak type inequalities with two weights for positive operators on filtered measure spaces. These estimates are probabilistic analogues of two-weight inequalities for positive operators associated to the…

We conduct a pair of quasirandom estimations of the separability probabilities with respect to ten measures on the 15-dimensional convex set of two-qubit states, using its Euler-angle parameterization. The measures include the…

We give a survey, known and new results on the beingness of fixed points of the maximal operator in the more general settings of metric measure space. In particular, we prove that the fixed points of the uncentered one must be the constant…

Various approaches of defining and determining work performed on a quantum system are compared. Any operational definition of work, however, must allow for two facts, first, that work characterizes a process rather than an instantaneous…

Every measurement determines a single value as its outcome, and yet quantum mechanics predicts it only probabilistically. The Kochen-Specker theorem and Bell's inequality are often considered to reject a realist view but favor a skeptical…

We extend the operator preconditioning framework [R. Hiptmair, Comput. Math. with Appl. 52 (2006), pp.~699--706] to Petrov-Galerkin methods while accounting for parameter-dependent perturbations of both variational forms and their…

We investigate a linear operator associated with a functional equation that arises from studying some class of invariant measures under multidimensional transformations. By examining its iterates, we derive an explicit solution formula for…

In this paper, we study {\it operator spaces\/} in the sense of the theory developed recently by Blecher-Paulsen [BP] and Effros-Ruan [ER1]. By an operator space, we mean a closed subspace $E\subset B(H)$, with $H$ Hilbert. We will be…

This paper deals with the possibility of transforming a weakly measurable function in a Hilbert space into a continuous frame by a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. A necessary condition is that the domain of…

We study strongly measurable random bounded operators on separable Hilbert spaces and analyze two simple iterations driven by independent random positive contractions. The first, a Kaczmarz-like iteration, converges in mean square and…

A geometric approach to formulate the uncertainty principle between quantum observables acting on an $N$-dimensional Hilbert space is proposed. We consider the fidelity between a density operator associated with a quantum system and a…

Transition Probability (fidelity) for pairs of density operators can be defined as "functor" in the hierarchy of "all" quantum systems and also within any quantum system. The introduction of "amplitudes" for density operators allows for a…
