Spectral presheaves as quantum state spaces.
For each quantum system described by an operator algebra [Formula: see text] of physical quantities, we provide a (generalized) state space, notwithstanding the Kochen-Specker theorem. This quantum state space is the spectral presheaf [Formula: see text]. We formulate the time evolution of quantum systems in terms of Hamiltonian flows on this generalized space and explain how the structure of t...
متن کاملQuantum Homogeneous Spaces as Quantum Quotient Spaces
We show that certain embeddable homogeneous spaces of a quantum group that do not correspond to a quantum subgroup still have the structure of quantum quotient spaces. We propose a construction of quantum fibre bundles on such spaces. The quantum plane and the general quantum two-spheres are discussed in detail. 0. Introduction A homogeneous space X of a Lie group G may be always identified wit...
متن کاملThe Erwin Schrr Odinger International Institute for Mathematical Physics Spheres and Hemispheres as Quantum State Spaces Spheres and Hemispheres as Quantum State Spaces
Spheres and hemispheres allow for their interpretation as quantum states spaces quite similar as it is known about projective spaces. Spheres describe systems with two levels of equal degeneracy. The geometric key is in the relation between transition probability and geodesics. There are isometric embeddings as geodesic submanifolds into the space of density operators assuming the latter is equ...
متن کاملSpectral Presheaves, Kochen-Specker Contextuality, and Quantale-Valued Relations
In the topos approach to quantum theory of Doering and Isham the Kochen–Specker Theorem, which asserts the contextual nature of quantum theory, can be reformulated in terms of the global sections of a presheaf characterised by the Gelfand spectrum of a commutativeC∗–algebra. In previous work we showed how this topos perspective can be generalised to a class of categories typically studied withi...
متن کاملTopological decomposition of composite quantum state spaces
We present a two-part program for state space decomposition. States are classified into entanglement classes based on local unitary transformations, and then characterized as elements of topological spaces using the language of fibre bundles. c © 2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (000.3860) Mathematical methods in physics; (270.0270) Quantum optics Much effort has been spent in attemp...
