Any method for estimating the ensemble average of arbitrary operator (observables or not, including the density matrix) relates the quantity of interest to a complete set of observables, i.e. a quorum}. This corresponds to an expansion on…
Let $q\neq \pm 1$ be a complex number of modulus one. This paper deals with the operator relation $AB=qBA$ for self-adjoint operators $A$ and $B$ on a Hilbert space. Two classes of well-behaved representations of this relation are studied…

The quasiprobability representation of quantum states addresses two main concerns, the identification of nonclassical features and the decomposition of the density operator. While the former aspect is a main focus of current research, the…
In this contribution, we construct a connection between two quantum voting models presented previously. We propose to try to determine the result of a vote from associated given opinion polls. We introduce a density operator relative to the…

It is well known that the ground state energy of many-particle Hamiltonians involving only 2-body interactions can be obtained using constrained optimizations over density matrices which arise from reducing an N-particle state. While…
Assume that the eigenvalues of a finite hermitian linear operator have been deduced accurately but the linear operator itself could not be determined with precision. Given a set of eigenvalues $\lambda$ and a hermitian matrix $M$, this…
In this paper we study spectral properties of self-adjoint operators on a large class of geometries given via sofic groups. We prove that the associated integrated densities of states can be approximated via finite volume analogues. This is…

For commuting linear operators $P_0,P_1,..., P_\ell$ we describe a range of conditions which are weaker than invertibility. When any of these conditions hold we may study the composition $P=P_0P_1... P_\ell$ in terms of the component…

We study maximal representations of nonnegative sesquilinear forms in real or complex Hilbert spaces, that are not necessarily closed or even closable. We associate positive self-adjoint operators with such forms, in a sense similar to…
The main purpose of this paper is to investigate some natural problems regarding the order structure of representable functionals on $^*$-algebras. We describe the extreme points of order intervals, and give a nontrivial sufficient…
