The Pauli groups are ubiquitous in quantum information theory because of their usefulness in describing quantum states and operations and their readily understood symmetry properties. In addition, the most well-understood quantum error…
Qubits are a great way to build a quantum computer, but a limited way to program one. We replace the usual "states and gates" formalism with a "props and ops" (propositions and operators) model in which (a) the C*-algebra of observables…
We consider a spin-1/2 charged particle in the plane under the influence of two idealized Aharonov-Bohm fluxes. We show that the Pauli operator as a differential operator is defined by appropriate boundary conditions at the two vortices.…
We focus on quantum systems represented by a Hilbert space $L^2(A)$, where $A$ is a locally compact Abelian group that contains a compact open subgroup. We examine two interconnected issues related to Weyl-Heisenberg operators. First, we…
We consider the Weyl algebra A (=A_n(k)) and its Rees algebra B with respect to the Bernstein filtration. The homogenisation of a differential operator in A is an element in B. In this paper we establish the validity of the division theorem…
We study Hardy--Sobolev spaces H_n^p(C^+) on the upper half-plane for 1<=p<=infty and n is a nonnegative integer, from both function-theoretic and operator-theoretic viewpoints. We establish an isometric boundary characterization of…
We examine relationships between various quantization schemes for an electrically charged particle in the field of a magnetic monopole. Quantization maps are defined in invariant geometrical terms, appropriate to the case of nontrivial…
This chapter uses categorical techniques to describe relations between various sets of operators on a Hilbert space, such as self-adjoint, positive, density, effect and projection operators. These relations, including various…
We define and study Toeplitz operators in the space of Herglotz solutions of the Helmholtz equation in $R^d$. As the most traditional definition of Toeplitz operators via Bergman-type projection is not available here, we use an approach…
In this paper the Weyl tensor is used to define operators that act on the space of forms. These operators are shown to have interesting properties and are used to classify the Weyl tensor, the well known Petrov classification emerging as a…
We compute the two and three-point correlation functions of chiral primary operators in the large N limit of the (0,2), d=6 superconformal theory. We also consider the operator product expansion of Wilson surfaces in the (0,2) theory and…
We construct a Weyl pseudodifferential calculus tailored to studying boundedness of operators on weighted $L^p$ spaces over $\mathbb{R}^d$ with weights of the form $\exp(-\phi(x))$, for $\phi$ a $C^2$ function, a setting in which the…
We develop Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators $H_{\alpha}$ in $L^2((a,b);dx;\cH)$ associated with the operator-valued differential expression $\tau =-(d^2/dx^2)+V(\cdot)$, with $V:(a,b)\to\cB(\cH)$, and $\cH$ a…
Theory of differential operators on associative algebras is not extended to the non-associative ones in a straightforward way. We consider differential operators on Lie algebras. A key point is that multiplication in a Lie algebra is its…
The helicity operator of massless particles has only two polarisations like it takes place for photons and gravitons. For them not all of the 2s+1 spin magnetic quantum states exist, with two exceptions, and the spin operator ceases to be…
Whether an almost-commuting pair of operators must be close to a commuting pair is a central question in operator and matrix theory. We investigate this problem for pairs of $C^*$-subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of…
The aim of this paper is to solve the bispectral problem for bispectral operators whose order is a prime number. More precisely we give a complete list of such bispectral operators. We use systematically the operator approach and in…
Duality is investigated for higher spin ($s \geq 2$), free, massless, bosonic gauge fields. We show how the dual formulations can be derived from a common "parent", first-order action. This goes beyond most of the previous treatments where…
These notes describe some links between the group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the Heisenberg group and hypercomplex numbers---complex, dual and double numbers. Relations between quantum and classical mechanics are clarified in this…
We present a construction of Hermitian operators and quantum states labelled by strings from a finite field. The distance between these operators or states is then simply related (typically, proportional) to the Hamming distance between…
