In a quantum system with d-dimensional Hilbert space, the Q-function of a Hermitian positive semidefinite operator ?, is defined in terms of the d2 coherent states in this system. The Choquet integral CQ of the Q-function, is introduced using a ranking of the values of the Q-function, and Mobius transforms which remove the overlaps between coherent states. It is a figure of merit of the quantum properties of Hermitian operators, and it provides upper and lower bounds to various physical quantities in terms of the Q-function. Comonotonicity is an important concept in the formalism, which is used to formalize the vague concept of physically similar operators. Comonotonic operators are shown to be bounded, with respect to an order based on Choquet integrals. Applications of the formalism to the study of the ground state of a physical system, are discussed. Bounds for partition functions, are also derived.
We consider the vector space of $n times n$ matrices over $mathbb C$, Fermi operators and operators constructed from these matrices and Fermi operators. The properties of these operators are studied with respect to the underlying matrices. The commutators, anticommutators, and the eigenvalue problem of such operators are also discussed. Other matrix functions such as the exponential functions are studied. Density operators and Kraus operators are also discussed.
In this paper we present a systematic study of regular sequences of quasi-nonexpansive operators in Hilbert space. We are interested, in particular, in weakly, boundedly and linearly regular sequences of operators. We show that the type of the regularity is preserved under relaxations, convex combinations and products of operators. Moreover, in this connection, we show that weak, bounded and linear regularity lead to weak, strong and linear convergence, respectively, of various iterative methods. This applies, in particular, to block iterative and string averaging projection methods, which, in principle, are based on the above-mentioned algebraic operations applied to projections. Finally, we show an application of regular sequences of operators to variational inequality problems.
In this paper, we construct several classes of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes via generalized Reed-Solomon (GRS) codes and extended GRS codes, where we can determine the dimensions of their Euclidean hulls or Hermitian hulls. It turns out that the dimensions of Euclidean hulls or Hermitian hulls of the codes in our constructions can take all or almost all possible values. As a consequence, we can apply our results to entanglement-assisted quantum error-correcting codes (EAQECCs) and obtain several new families of MDS EAQECCs with flexible parameters. The required number of maximally entangled states of these MDS EAQECCs can take all or almost all possible values. Moreover, several new classes of q-ary MDS EAQECCs of length n > q + 1 are also obtained.
We develop a framework to extend resource measures from one domain to a larger one. We find that all extensions of resource measures are bounded between two quantities that we call the minimal and maximal extensions. We discuss various applications of our framework. We show that any relative entropy (i.e. an additive function on pairs of quantum states that satisfies the data processing inequality) must be bounded by the min and max relative entropies. We prove that the generalized trace distance, the generalized fidelity, and the purified distance are optimal extensions. And in entanglement theory we introduce a new technique to extend pure state entanglement measures to mixed bipartite states.
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 then applied to conveniently determine the moment operators of the Cartesian margins of the phase space observables.
