Standard projective measurements represent a subset of all possible measurements in quantum physics, defined by positive-operator-valued measures. We study what quantum measurements are projective simulable, that is, can be simulated by…
Generalized quantum measurements (also known as POVMs) are of great importance in quantum information and quantum foundations, but often difficult to perform. We present an experimental approach which can in principle be used to perform…
Probability maps are additive and normalised maps taking values in the unit interval of a lattice ordered Abelian group. They appear in theory of affine representations and they are also a semantic counterpart of Hajek's probability logic.…
Integrable systems in low dimensions, constructed through the symmetry reduction method, are studied using phase portrait and variable separation techniques. In particular, invariant quantities and explicit periodic solutions are…
In this paper, we show that in Hilbert space of any finite dimension N, there are N^2 unit vectors which constitute Symmetric Informationally Complete Positive Operator Valued Measure (SIC-POVM).
This investigation continues a program aiming at obtaining effective quantum models to describe measurement statistics. In [Stark, arXiv:1209.5737 (2012)], we have described how the Gram matrix associated to the prepared states and the…
We theoretically describe the weak measurement of a two-level system (qubit) and quantify the degree to which such a qubit measurement has a quantum non-demolition (QND) character. The qubit is coupled to a harmonic oscillator which…
We show that a one-dimensional discrete time quantum walk can be used to implement a generalized measurement in terms of positive operator value measure (POVM) on a single qubit. More precisely, we show that for a single qubit any set of…
We study the positive-operator-valued measures on the projective real line covariant with respect to the projective group, assuming that the energy is a positive operator. This problem is similar to the more complicated problem of finding…
We introduce three metrics on the set of quantum probability measures over a compact Hausdorff space and characterize them in terms of the completely bounded norm of the corresponding unital completely positive maps. We extend the existing…
The space of positive operator-valued measures on the Borel sets of a compact (or even locally compact) Hausdorff space with values in the algebra of linear operators acting on a d-dimensional Hilbert space is studied from the perspectives…
Representations of the Poincar\'{e} symmetry are studied by using a Hilbert space with a phase space content. The states are described by wave functions ( quasi amplitudes of probability) associated with Wigner functions (quasi probability…
We consider a general schema involving measure spaces, contractions and linear and continuous operators. Within the framework of this schema we use our sesquilinear uniform integral and introduce some integral operators on continuous vector…
We offer new results and new directions in the study of operator-valued kernels and their factorizations. Our approach provides both more explicit realizations and new results, as well as new applications. These include: (i) an explicit…
The present article describes the precise structure of the $L^{p}$-spaces of projective limit measures by introducing a category theoretical perspective. This analysis is applied to measures on vector spaces and in particular to Gaussian…
Systems built out of N-body interactions, beyond 2-body interactions, are formulated on the plane, and investigated classically and quantum mechanically (in phase space). Their Wigner Functions--the density matrices in phase-space…
Approximation properties of periodic quasi-projection operators with matrix dilations are studied. Such operators are generated by a sequence of functions $\varphi_j$ and a sequence of distributions/functions $\widetilde{\varphi}_j$. Error…
We study the quantum ($C^*$) convexity structure of normalized positive operator valued measures (POVMs) on measurable spaces. In particular, it is seen that unlike extreme points under classical convexity, $C^*$-extreme points of…
Standard quantum measurements are projective. However, the full scope of quantum measurements is represented by positive operator-valued measures (POVMs) and many of these break the limitations of projective measurements as resources in…
Informationally overcomplete measurements find important applications in quantum tomography and quantum state estimation. The most popular are maximal sets of mutually unbiased bases, for which trace relations between measurement operators…
