We examine mathematical questions around angle (or phase) operator associated with a number operator through a short list of basic requirements. We implement three methods of construction of quantum angle. The first one is based on operator theory and parallels the definition of angle for the upper half-circle through its cosine and completed by a sign inversion. The two other methods are integral quantization generalizing in a certain sense the Berezin-Klauder approaches. One method pertains to Weyl-Heisenberg integral quantization of the plane viewed as the phase space of the motion on the line. It depends on a family of weight functions on the plane. The third method rests upon coherent state quantization of the cylinder viewed as the phase space of the motion on the circle. The construction of these coherent states depends on a family of probability distributions on the line.

We import the tools of Morse theory to study quantum adiabatic evolution, the core mechanism in adiabatic quantum computations (AQC). AQC is computationally equivalent to the (pre-eminent paradigm) of the Gate model but less error-prone, so it is ide ally suitable to practically tackle a large number of important applications. AQC remains, however, poorly understood theoretically and its mathematical underpinnings are yet to be satisfactorily identified. Through Morse theory, we bring a novel perspective that we expect will open the door for using such mathematics in the realm of quantum computations, providing a secure foundation for AQC. Here we show that the singular homology of a certain cobordism, which we construct from the given Hamiltonian, defines the adiabatic evolution. Our result is based on E. Wittens construction for Morse homology that was derived in the very different context of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. We investigate how such topological description, in conjunction with Gauss-Bonnet theorem and curvature based reformulation of Morse lemma, can be an obstruction to any computational advantage in AQC. We also explore Conley theory, for the sake of completeness, in advance of any known practical Hamiltonian of interest. We conclude with the instructive case of the ferromagnetic $p-$spin where we show that changing its first order quantum transition (QPT) into a second order QPT, by adding non-stoquastic couplings, amounts to homotopically deform the initial surface accompanied with birth of pairs of critical points. Their number reaches its maximum when the system is fully non-stoquastic. In parallel, the total Gaussian curvature gets redistributed (by the Gauss--Bonnet theorem) around the new neighbouring critical points, which weakens the severity of the QPT.
We introduce several notions of random positive operator valued measures (POVMs), and we prove that some of them are equivalent. We then study statistical properties of the effect operators for the canonical examples, obtaining limiting eigenvalue di stributions with the help of free probability theory. Similarly, we obtain the large system limit for several quantities of interest in quantum information theory, such as the sharpness, the noise content, and the probability range. Finally, we study different compatibility criteria, and we compare them for generic POVMs.
Linear system games are a generalization of Mermins magic square game introduced by Cleve and Mittal. They show that perfect strategies for linear system games in the tensor-product model of entanglement correspond to finite-dimensional operator solu tions of a certain set of non-commutative equations. We investigate linear system games in the commuting-operator model of entanglement, where Alice and Bobs measurement operators act on a joint Hilbert space, and Alices operators must commute with Bobs operators. We show that perfect strategies in this model correspond to possibly-infinite-dimensional operator solutions of the non-commutative equations. The proof is based around a finitely-presented group associated to the linear system which arises from the non-commutative equations.
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 using project ive measurements and classical randomness. We first prove that every measurement on a given quantum system can be realised by classical processing of projective measurements on the system plus an ancilla of the same dimension. Then, given a general measurement in dimension two or three, we show that deciding whether it is projective-simulable can be solved by means of semi-definite programming. We also establish conditions for the simulation of measurements using projective ones valid for any dimension. As an application of our formalism, we improve the range of visibilities for which two-qubit Werner states do not violate any Bell inequality for all measurements. From an implementation point of view, our work provides bounds on the amount of noise a measurement tolerates before losing any advantage over projective ones.

By virtue of the integration method within P-ordered product of operators and the property of entangled state representation, we reveal new physical interpretation of the generalized two-mode squeezing operator (GTSO), and find it be decomposed as th e product of free-space propagation operator, single-mode and two-mode squeezing operators, as well as thin lens transformation operator. This docomposition is useful to design of opticl devices for generating various squeezed states of light. Transformation of entangled state representation induced by GTSO is emphasized.
