Building off work of Farenick and Rahaman, we extend the definition of the density space and the Bures metric to the setting of non-unital C*-algebras equipped with a faithful trace and prove that the Bures metric is also a metric in this…
In a unital C*-algebra with a faithful trace functional $\tau$, the set $D_\tau(A)$ of positive $\rho\in A$ of trace \tau(\rho)=1 is an algebraic analogue of the space of density matrices (the set of all positive matrices of a fixed…
The inner geometry induced by the Bures distance function on the state space of a unital C*-algebra, or on parts of it, is considered in detail. As a key result the local dilation function is calculated at a state when the state argument is…
Metric noncommutative geometry, initiated by Alain Connes, has known some great recent developments under the impulsion of Rieffel and the introduction of the category of compact quantum metric spaces topologized thanks to the quantum…
Motivated by algebraic quantum field theory and our previous work we study properties of inductive systems of \ $C^*$-algebras over arbitrary partially ordered sets. A partially ordered set can be represented as the union of the family of…
We introduce two new formulations for the notion of "quantum metric on noncommutative space". For a compact noncommutative space associated to a unital C*-algebra, our quantum metrics are elements of the spatial tensor product of the…
The quantum information and the Bures metric are equivalent to each other, except at points where the rank of the density matrix changes. Here we show that by slightly modifying the definition of the Bures metric, the quantum information…
Given a unital inductive limit of C*-algebras for which each C*-algebra of the inductive sequence comes equipped with a compact quantum metric of Rieffel, we produce sufficient conditions to build a compact quantum metric on the inductive…
For the eight-dimensional Riemannian manifold comprised by the three-level quantum systems endowed with the Bures metric, we numerically approximate the integrals over the manifold of several functions of the curvature and of its…
D. Bures defined a metric $\beta $ on states of a $C^*$-algebra and this concept has been generalized to unital completely positive maps $\phi : \mathcal A \to \mathcal B$, where $\mathcal B$ is either an injective $C^*$-algebra or a von…
We introduce notions of dimension and dynamical entropy for unital C*-algebras ``metrized'' by means of c-Lip-norms, which are complex-scalar versions of the Lip-norms constitutive of Rieffel's compact quantum metric spaces. Our examples…
We compute, using a formula of Dittmann, the Bures metric tensor (g) for the eight-dimensional convex set of three-level quantum systems, employing a newly-developed Euler angle-based parameterization of the 3 x 3 density matrices. Most of…
This paper treats the isometries of metric spaces of quantum states. We consider two metrics on the set all quantum states, namely the Bures metric and the one which comes from the trace-norm. We describe all the corresponding (nonlinear)…
In this paper, we prove that the topology induced by algebraic cone metric coincides with the topology induced by the metric obtained via a nonlinear scalarization function, i.e. any algebraic cone metric space is metrizable. Furthermore,…
We elucidate the Bures metric in quantum state space near a rank-changing point of the density matrix and show contrasting behavior for two-level ($N=2$) systems versus higher-level systems. Due to the smooth pure-state boundary for $N=2$,…
Fidelity plays an important role in quantum information theory. In this letter, we introduce new metric of quantum states induced by fidelity, and connect it with the well-known trace metric, Sine metric and Bures metric for the qubit case.…
The concept of a $ C $*-algebra-valued metric space was introduced in 2014. It is a generalization of a metric space by replacing the set of real numbers by a $ C $*-algebra. In this paper, we show that $ C $*-algebra-valued metric spaces…
We introduce the nuclear dimension of a C*-algebra; this is a noncommutative version of topological covering dimension based on a modification of the earlier concept of decomposition rank. Our notion behaves well with respect to inductive…
We construct the first example of a $C^*$-algebra $A$ with the properties in the title. This gives a new example of non-nuclear $A$ for which there is a unique $C^*$-norm on $A \otimes A^{op}$. This example is of particular interest in…
Let $M$ be complete nonpositively curved Riemannian manifold of finite volume whose fundamental group $\Gamma$ does not contain a finite index subgroup which is a product of infinite groups. We show that the universal cover $\tilde M$ is a…
