We study fluctuation fields of orthogonal polynomials in the context of particle systems with duality. We thereby obtain a systematic orthogonal decomposition of the fluctuation fields of local functions, where the order of every term can…
We analyze the trade-off between the amounts of information obtainable on complementary properties of a qubit state by simultaneous measurements. We consider a "state discrimination" scenario wherein the same measurements are repeated, but…
Bohr placed complementary bases at the mathematical centre point of his view of quantum mechanics. On the technical side then my question translates into that of classifying complex Hadamard matrices. Recent work (with Barros e Sa) shows…
