We performed an experimental test of the Kochen-Specker theorem based on an inequality derived from the Peres-Mermin proof, using spin-path (momentum) entanglement in a single neutron system. Following the strategy proposed by Cabello et…
We formulate the Asymptotic Expansion Conjecture for the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev quantum invariants of closed oriented three manifolds. For finite order mapping tori, we study these quantum invariants via the geometric gauge theory…
We study the relationship between POV-measures in quantum theory and asymptotic morphisms in the operator algebra E-theory of Connes-Higson. This is done by introducing the theory of "asymptotic" PV-measures and their integral…
We study, from a combinatorial viewpoint, the quantized coordinate ring of mxn matrices over an infinite field K (also called quantum matrices) and its torus-invariant prime ideals. The first part of this paper shows that this algebra,…
We investigate operator algebraic origins of the classical Koopman-von Neumann wave function $\psi_{KvN}$ as well as the quantum mechanical one $\psi_{QM}$. We introduce a formalism of Operator Mechanics (OM) based on a noncommutative…
A brief synopsis of recent conceptions and results, the current status and future outlook of our research program of applying sheaf and topos-theoretic ideas to quantum gravity and quantum logic is presented.
The current form of quantum mechanics is very successful and is almost certainly correct. It is remarkable, however, that the entire structure-from the mass, spin and charge labels on particlelike states to antisymmetry to broken internal…
A simple mapping procedure is presented by which classical orbits and path integrals for the motion of a point particle in flat space can be transformed directly into those in curved space with torsion. Our procedure evolved from…
The quantum mechanics of an N=1 supersymmetric dynamical system constrained to a hypersurface embedded in the higher dimensional Euclidean space is investigated by using the projection-operator method (POM) of constrained systems. It is…
The motion of a quantum particle constrained to a two-dimensional non-compact Riemannian manifold with non-trivial metric can be described by a flat-space Schroedinger-type equation at the cost of introducing local mass and metric and…
We derive a quantum version of the classical-optics Wiener-Khintchine theorem within the framework of detection of phase-space displacements with a suitably designed quantum ruler. A phase-pace based quantum mutual coherence function is…
We reconsider quantum mechanical systems based on the classical action being the period of a one form over a cycle and elucidate three main points. First we show that the prepotenial V is no longer completely arbitrary but obeys a…
We use the mathematical language of sheaf theory to give a unified treatment of non-locality and contextuality, in a setting which generalizes the familiar probability tables used in non-locality theory to arbitrary measurement covers; this…
The general formalism of quantum mechanics for the description of statistical experiments is briefly reviewed, introducing in particular position and momentum observables as POVM characterized by their covariance properties with respect to…
What makes two computational systems equivalent? Topos theory answers with classifying toposes: a system's semantic content is encoded in the geometric theory it classifies, and two presentations are equivalent when their classifying…
In this paper, we extend the standard formalism of quantum mechanics to a quantum theory for a total system including one internal measuring apparatus. The internality of the measuring apparatus implies that different decomposition of a…
This paper fires the opening salvo in the systematic construction of the lattice-continuum correspondence, a precise dictionary that describes the emergence of continuum quantum theories from finite, nonperturbatively defined models…
Using ideas from Jones, lattice gauge theory and loop quantum gravity, we construct 1+1-dimensional gauge theories on a spacetime cylinder. Given a separable compact group $G$, we construct localized time-zero fields on the spatial torus as…
Relativistic theory of the Cox's scalar not point-like particle with intrinsic structure is developed on the background of arbitrary curved space-time. It is shown that in the most general form, the extended Proca-like tensor first order…
We consider group-covariant positive operator valued measures (POVMs) on a finite dimensional quantum system. Following Neumark's theorem a POVM can be implemented by an orthogonal measurement on a larger system. Accordingly, our goal is to…
