We give a criterion for a positive mapping on the space of operators on a Hilbert space to be indecomposable. We show that this criterion can be applied to two families of positive maps. These families of maps can then be used to form…

The class of stochastic maps, that is, linear, trace-preserving, positive maps between the self-adjoint trace class operators of complex separable Hilbert spaces plays an important role in the representation of reversible dynamics and…

We examine stochastic maps in the context of quantum optics. Making use of the master equation, the damping basis, and the Bloch picture we calculate a non-unital, completely positive, trace-preserving map with unequal damping eigenvalues.…

Assume that $T$ is a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and that the spectrum of $T$ is confined in the union $\bigcup_{j\in J}\Delta_j$, $J\subseteq\mathbb{Z}$, of segments $\Delta_j=[\alpha_j,…

The maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four-dimensional Minkowski space is an exceptional model of mathematical physics. Even more so in the planar limit, where the theory is believed to be integrable. In particular, the…

Many alternative approaches to construct quantum channels with large entangling capacity were proposed in the past decade, resulting in multiple isolated gates. In this work, we put forward a novel one, inspired by convolution, which…

A linear map between matrix spaces is positive if it maps positive semidefinite matrices to positive semidefinite ones, and is called completely positive if all its ampliations are positive. In this article quantitative bounds on the…

In this work a possibility of a decomposition of a bounded operator which acts in a Hilbert space $H$ as a product of a J-unitary and a J-self-adjoint operators is studied, $J$ is a conjugation (an antilinear involution). Decompositions of…

Given a finite dimensional Hilbert space H and a collection of operators between its tensor powers satisfying certain properties, we give a category-free proof of the existence of a compact quantum group G with a fundamental representation…

In our previous work, we proposed a mathematical framework for PT-symmetric quantum theory, and in particular constructed a Krein space in which PT-symmetric operators would naturally act. In this work, we explore and discuss various…

Two notions for linear maps (operational convex combinations and operational exetreme points) are introduced. The set S of ucp maps on the n times n matrix algebra is the operational convex combinations of the identity map. An operational…

We introduce S-modules, generalizing the notion of Krein $C^*$-modules, where a fixed unitary replaces the symmetry of Krein $C^*$-modules. The representation theory on S-modules is explored and for a given $*$-automorphism $\alpha$ on a…

A vector subspace $\cls$ of $\IM_n(\IC)$ is called unital operator system if $x \in \cls$ if and only if $x^* \in \cls$ and the identity operator $I_n \in \cls$, where $n$ is any fixed positive integer. Let $C^*(\cls)$ be the $C^*$…

We derive Paschke's GNS construction for completely positive maps on unital pro-C*-algebras from the KSGNS construction, presented by M. Joita [J. London Math. Soc. {\bf 66} (2002), 421--432], and then we deduce an analogue of Stinespring…

The quantum capacity captures the value of a quantum channel for transmitting quantum information, establishing the fundamental limits on quantum communication. In spite of its central role in quantum information theory, the quantum…

We study the number of measurements required for quantum process tomography under prior information, such as a promise that the unknown channel is unitary. We introduce the notion of an interactive observable and we show that any unitary…

We address the problem of existence of completely positive trace preserving (CPTP) maps between two sets of density matrices. We refine the result of Alberti and Uhlmann and derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a…

The structure of cones of positive and k-positive maps acting on a finite-dimensional Hilbert space is investigated. Special emphasis is given to their duality relations to the sets of superpositive and k-superpositive maps. We characterize…
