Anomalies , Unitarity and Quantum Irreversibility
The trace anomaly in external gravity is the sum of three terms at criticality: the square of the Weyl tensor, the Euler density and 2R, with coefficients, properly normalized, called c, a and a ′ , the latter being ambiguously defined by an additive constant. Unitarity and positivity properties of the induced actions allow us to show that the total RG flows of a and a ′ are equal and therefore...
متن کاملUnitarity and irreversibility in chaotic systems.
We analyze the spectral properties of the Perron-Frobenius operator, U, associated with some simple highly chaotic maps. We obtain a spectral decomposition of U in terms of generalized eigenfunctions of U and its adjoint. The corresponding eigenvalues are related to the decay rates of correlation functions and have magnitude less than one, so that physically measurable quantities manifestly app...

متن کاملIrreversibility with quantum trajectories.
Irreversibility is an important issue for many quantum processes. Loschmidt echoes, originally introduced as a way to gauge sensitivity to perturbations in quantum mechanics, have turned out to be a useful tool for its investigation. Following the philosophy supporting this idea, and using quantum trajectories as defined in the causal interpretation of quantum mechanics due to Bohm, we introduc...
متن کاملIrreversibility in Quantum Computational Logics
In this paper we discuss an approach to quantum computation where the basic information units (qubits and quregisters) are replaced by density operators and the restriction to unitary operators as logical gates is lifted through the introduction of the more general concept of quantum operation ( [17], [1]). This perspective is especially suited to provide a physical description of open systems....
