The properties of quantum probabilities are linked to the geometry of quantum mechanics, described by the Birkhoff-von Neumann lattice. Quantum probabilities violate the additivity property of Kolmogorov probabilities, and they are interpreted as Dempster-Shafer probabilities. Deviations from the additivity property are quantified with the Mobius (or non-additivity) operators which are defined through Mobius transforms, and which are shown to be intimately related to commutators. The lack of distributivity in the Birkhoff-von Neumann lattice Lambda , causes deviations from the law of the total probability (which is central in Kolmogorovs probability theory). Projectors which quantify the lack of distributivity in Lambda , and also deviations from the law of the total probability, are introduced. All these operators, are observables and they can be measured experimentally. Constraints for the Mobius operators, which are based on the properties of the Birkhoff-von Neumann lattice (which in the case of finite quantum systems is a modular lattice), are derived.Application of this formalism in the context of coherent states, generalizes coherence to multi-dimensional structures.

As a continuation of the paper [20] on standard $f$-divergences, we make a systematic study of maximal $f$-divergences in general von Neumann algebras. For maximal $f$-divergences, apart from their definition based on Haagerups $L^1$-space, we presen t the general integral expression and the variational expression in terms of reverse tests. From these definition and expressions we prove important properties of maximal $f$-divergences, for instance, the monotonicity inequality, the joint convexity, the lower semicontinuity, and the martingale convergence. The inequality between the standard and the maximal $f$-divergences is also given.

We make a systematic study of standard $f$-divergences in general von Neumann algebras. An important ingredient of our study is to extend Kosakis variational expression of the relative entropy to an arbitary standard $f$-divergence, from which most o f the important properties of standard $f$-divergences follow immediately. In a similar manner we give a comprehensive exposition on the Renyi divergence in von Neumann algebra. Some results on relative hamiltonians formerly studied by Araki and Donald are improved as a by-product.

A lemma stated by Ke Li in [arXiv:1208.1400] has been used in e.g. [arXiv:1510.04682,arXiv:1706.04590,arXiv:1612.01464,arXiv:1308.6503,arXiv:1602.08898] for various tasks in quantum hypothesis testing, data compression with quantum side information o r quantum key distribution. This lemma was originally proven in finite dimension, with a direct extension to type I von Neumann algebras. Here we show that the use of modular theory allows to give more transparent meaning to the objects constructed by the lemma, and to prove it for general von Neumann algebras. This yields immediate generalizations of e.g. [arXiv:1510.04682].

We consider in this work the problem of minimizing the von Neumann entropy under the constraints that the density of particles, the current, and the kinetic energy of the system is fixed at each point of space. The unique minimizer is a self-adjoint positive trace class operator, and our objective is to characterize its form. We will show that this minimizer is solution to a self-consistent nonlinear eigenvalue problem. One of the main difficulties in the proof is to parametrize the feasible set in order to derive the Euler-Lagrange equation, and we will proceed by constructing an appropriate form of perturbations of the minimizer. The question of deriving quantum statistical equilibria is at the heart of the quantum hydrody-namical models introduced by Degond and Ringhofer in [5]. An original feature of the problem is the local nature of constraints, i.e. they depend on position, while more classical models consider the total number of particles, the total current and the total energy in the system to be fixed.

We prove that a fractional perfect matching in a non-bipartite graph can be written, in polynomial time, as a convex combination of perfect matchings. This extends the Birkhoff-von Neumann Theorem from bipartite to non-bipartite graphs. The algorit hm of Birkhoff and von Neumann is greedy; it starts with the given fractional perfect matching and successively removes from it perfect matchings, with appropriate coefficients. This fails in non-bipartite graphs -- removing perfect matchings arbitrarily can lead to a graph that is non-empty but has no perfect matchings. Using odd cuts appropriately saves the day.
