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…

It was shown that in the small Wigner group there is a one-parameter subgroup of the Lorentz transformations, which leave unchanged not only the momentum of the fermion with spin h/2, but also its spin characteristics. This is the group of…
We study the covariant version of the quark-parton model, in which the general rules of the angular momentum composition are accurately taken into account. We demonstrate how these rules affect the relativistic interplay between the quark…
We present the quantum kinetic equation for spin polarization of massive quarks in leading log order of perturbative QCD, which describes time evolution of the spin density matrix in momentum space of a massive quark interacting with a…
We investigate the decoherence of a spin 1/2 subsystem weakly coupled to an environment of many spins 1/2 with and without mutual coupling. The total system is closed, its state is pure and evolves under Schroedinger dynamics. Nevertheless,…
We extend complete complementarity relations to curved spacetimes by considering a succession of infinitesimal local Lorentz transformations, which implies that complementarity remains valid as the quanton travels through its world line and…
Variation of the von Neumann entropy by the Lorentz transformation is discussed. Taking the spin-singlet state in the center of mass frame, the von Neumann entropy in the laboratory frame is calculated from the reduced density matrix…
We study the orbits of two interacting particles described by a fully relativistic classical mechanical Hamiltonian. We use two sets of initial conditions. In the first set (dynamics 1) the system's center of mass is at rest. In the second…
It is shown that the Pauli-Lubanski spin vector defined in terms of curvilinear co-ordinates does not satisfy Lorentz invariance for spin-1/2 particles in noninertial motion along a curved trajectory. The possibility of detecting this…
