This paper completes a previous work by constructing a class of positive-energy relativistic spatial localization observables in Minkowski spacetime within quantum field theory, using the stress-energy-momentum tensor smeared with suitable…
A parameterization of the density operator, a coherence vector representation, which uses a basis of orthogonal, traceless, Hermitian matrices is discussed. Using this parameterization we find the region of permissible vectors which…
It is well known that increasing functions do not preserve operator order in general; nor do decreasing functions reverse operator order. However, operator monotone increasing or operator monotone decreasing do. In this article, we employ a…
Using the natural duality between linear functionals on tensor products of C*-algebras with the trace class operators on a Hilbert space H and linear maps of the C*-algebra into B(H), we study the relationship between separability,…
We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose…
The order relation on the set of completely n-positive linear maps from a pro-C*-algebra A to L(H), the C*-algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H, is characterized in terms of the representation associated with each…
In this paper we study groups of positive operators on Banach lattices. If a certain factorization property holds for the elements of such a group, the group has a homomorphic image in the isometric positive operators which has the same…
We show that continuous group homomorphisms between unitary groups of unital C*-algebras induce maps between spaces of continuous real-valued affine functions on the trace simplices. Under certain $K$-theoretic regularity conditions, these…
Classical matching theory can be defined in terms of matrices with nonnegative entries. The notion of Positive operator, central in Quantum Theory, is a natural generalization of matrices with nonnegative entries. Based on this point of…
We investigate orthonormality-preserving, C*-conformal and conformal module mappings on Hilbert C*-modules to obtain their general structure. Orthogonality-preserving bounded module maps T act as a multiplication by an element \lambda of…
In this paper, we discuss positive maps induced by (irreducibly) covariant linear operators for finite groups. The application of group theory methods allows deriving some new results of a different kind. In particular, a family of…
Recent works have proposed the use of the formalism of Positive Operator Valued Measures to describe time measurements in quantum mechanics. This work aims to expand on the work done by other authors, by generalizing the previously proposed…
We study spectral properties of convolution operators $\mathcal L$ and their perturbations $H=\mathcal L+v(x)$ by compactly supported potentials. Results are applied to determine the front propagation of a population density governed by…
This paper studies the variation diminishing property of $k$-positive linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, which map inputs with $k-1$ sign changes to outputs with at most the same variation. We characterize this property for the Toeplitz…
In this paper we introduce and study a new sequence of positive linear operators acting on function spaces defined on a convex compact subset. Their construction depends on a given Markov operator, a positive real number and a sequence of…
Differentially positive systems are systems whose linearization along trajectories is positive. Under mild assumptions, their solutions asymptotically converge to a one-dimensional attractor, which must be a limit cycle in the absence of…
We show that the set of projections in an operator system can be detected using only the abstract data of the operator system. Specifically, we show that if $p$ is a positive contraction in an operator system $V$ which satisfies certain…
The quantum operator $\hat{T}_3$, corresponding to the projection of the toroidal moment on the $z$ axis, admits several self-adjoint extensions, when defined on the whole $\mathbb{R}^3$ space. $\hat{T}_3$ commutes with $\hat{L}_3$ (the…
In this article, we give a representation of bounded complex linear operators which preserve idempotent elements on the Fourier algebra of a locally compact group. When such an operator is moreover positive or contractive, we show that the…
In this paper, we characterize a class of additive maps on Hilbert $C^\ast$-modules which maps a "rank one" adjointable operators to another rank one operators.
