In many a traditional physics textbook, a quantum measurement is defined as a projective measurement represented by a Hermitian operator. In quantum information theory, however, the concept of a measurement is dealt with in complete…

Some consequences of promoting the object of noncommutativity ${\mathbf \theta}^{ij}$ to an operator in Hilbert space are explored. Consequently, a consistent algebra involving the enlarged set of canonical operators is obtained, which…

Using a recent result of Albini et al. to represent quantum homodyne tomography in terms of a single observable (as a normalized positive operator measure) we construct a generalized Markov kernel which transforms (the measurement outcome…

Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space $H$, $\a:\{1,..., 2k\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a pair--partition, and finally $A_{1},...,A_{2k-1}\in B(H)$. We show that the ergodic average $$…

A representation theorem for non-semibounded Hermitian quadratic forms in terms of a (non-semibounded) self-adjoint operator is proven. The main assumptions are closability of the Hermitian quadratic form, the direct integral structure of…

The Variational Quantum Eigensolver approach to the electronic structure problem on a quantum computer involves measurement of the Hamiltonian expectation value. Formally, quantum mechanics allows one to measure all mutually commuting or…

We present an operationally motivated treatment of quantum reference frames in the setting that the frame is a covariant positive operator valued measure (POVM) on a finite homogeneous space, generalising the principal homogeneous spaces…

In this paper, we discuss positive maps induced by (irreducibly) covariant linear operators for finite groups. The application of group theory methods allows deriving some new results of a different kind. In particular, a family of…

We explore further the suggestion to describe a pre- and post-selected system by a two-state, which is determined by two conditions. Starting with a formal definition of a two-state Hilbert space and basic operations, we systematically…

We show that the open unit ball of the space of operators from a finite dimensional Hilbert space into a separable Hilbert space (we call it "operator ball") has a restricted form of normal structure if we endow it with a hyperbolic metric…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be an algebraic quantum group and $\mathcal{U}$ a compact quantum subgroup. Given a left $\hat{\mathcal{U}}$-module algebra A with unit, we can endow $A\otimes\mathcal{G}$ with a structure of a right…

The purpose of the paper is to study the foundations of the main axioms of Quantum Mechanics. From a general study of the mathematical properties of the models used in Physics to represent systems, we prove that the states of a system can…

To any action of a locally compact group $G$ on a pair $(A,B)$ of von Neumann algebras is canonically associated a pair $(\pi\_A^{\alpha}, \pi\_B^{\alpha})$ of unitary representations of $G$. The purpose of this paper is to provide results…

For linear operators which factor with suitable assumptions concerning commutativity of the factors, we introduce several notions of a decomposition. When any of these hold then questions of null space and range are subordinated to the same…

We find that biorthogonal quantum mechanics with a scalar product that counts both absorbed and emitted particles leads to covariant position operators with localized eigenvectors. In this manifestly covariant formulation the probability…

Assuming a unitarily invariant norm $|||\cdot|||$ is given on a two-sided ideal of bounded linear operators acting on a separable Hilbert space, it induces some unitarily invariant norms $|||\cdot|||$ on matrix algebras $\mathcal{M}_n$ for…

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 fixed points of contractive convolution operators associated to contractive quantum measures on locally compact quantum groups. We characterise the existence of non-zero fixed points respectively on $L^\infty(\mathbb{G})$ and on…

In this sequence of papers, noncommutative analysis is used to give a consistent axiomatic approach to a unified conceptual foundation of classical and quantum physics. The present Part I defines the concepts of observables, states and…

Coherent-state representations are a standard tool to deal with continuous-variable systems, as they allow one to efficiently visualize quantum states in phase space. Here, we work out an alternative basis consisting of monomials on the…
