We study the compatibility (or joint measurability) of quantum observables in a setting where the experimenter has access to multiple copies of a given quantum system, rather than performing the experiments on each individual copy…
Finding classical canonical observables consists of taking a function space over phase space. For constrained theories, these functions must form zero brackets with a closed algebraic structure of first-class constraints. This brackets…
We introduce a simplified form of Stokes operators for quantum optical fields that involve the known concept of binning. Behind polarization analyzer photon numbers (more generally intensities) are measured. If the value obtained in one of…
We consider pairs of quantum observables (POVMs) and analyze the relation between the notions of non-disturbance, joint measurability and commutativity. We specify conditions under which these properties coincide or differ---depending for…
In his book `Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics', von Neumann asserted the following: the Compton-Simon experiment showed that the state vector must collapse upon measurement of any self-adjoint operator. Comparing von Neumann's…
We study the properties of reflectionless measures for a Calder\'{o}n-Zygmund operator T. Roughly speaking, these are measures $\mu$ for which T(\mu) vanishes (in a weak sense) on the support of the measure. We describe the relationship…
The property of linear discrete-time time-invariant system operators mapping inputs with at most $k-1$ sign changes to outputs with at most $k-1$ sign changes is investigated. We show that this property is tractable via the notion of…
We introduce a nonperturbative approach to correlation functions of two determinant operators and one non-protected single-trace operator in planar N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Based on the gauge/string duality, we propose that…
We calculate the coefficients of three-point functions of BMN operators with two vector impurities. We find that these coefficients can be obtained from those of the three-point functions of scalar BMN operators by interchanging the…
The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen argument on quantum mechanics incompleteness is formulated in terms of elements of reality inferred from joint (as opposed to alternative) measurements, in two examples involving entangled states of three…
The problem of inferring the outcome of a simultaneous measurement of two non-commuting observables is addressed. We show that for certain pairs with dense spectra, precise inferences of the measurement outcomes are possible in pre-and…
We consider simultaneous and continuous measurement of two noncommutative observables of the system whose commutator is not necessarily a $c$-number. We revisit the Arthurs-Kelly model and generalize it to describe the simultaneous…
The problem of quantization of general relativity is considered in the framework of noncommutative differential geometry. Operator analogues for interval, scalar curvature, values of the Einstein tensor are proposed. Quantum measurements of…
We consider the problem of designing a measurement to minimize the probability of a detection error when distinguishing between a collection of possibly non-orthogonal mixed quantum states. We show that if the quantum state ensemble…
We discuss the detection of entanglement in interacting quantum spin systems. First, thermodynamic Hamiltonian-based witnesses are computed for a general class of one-dimensional spin-1/2 models. Second, we introduce optimal bipartite…
We explore the three separate isomorphisms that link together simple spinors, null vectors and the orthogonal group O(n) and exploit them to look back at these arguments from a unified viewpoint.
In this paper we consider one model with nearest-neighbor interactions and with the set $[0,1]$ of spin values on the Cayley tree of order three. Translation-invariant Gibbs measures for the model are studied. Results are proved by using…
In this work, building up on [1] we present momentum space Ward identities related to broken higher spin symmetry as an alternate approach to computing correlators of spinning operators in interacting theories such as the quasi-fermionic…

The moment operators of a semispectral measure having the structure of the convolution of a positive measure and a semispectral measure are studied, with paying attention to the natural domains of these unbounded operators. The results are…
