چکیده

A geometric characterization is given for invertible quantum measurement maps. Denote by S(H) the convex set of all states (i.e., trace-1 positive operators) on Hilbert space H with dimH ≤ ∞, and [ρ1, ρ2] the line segment joining two elements ρ1, ρ2 in S(H). It is shown that a bijective map φ : S(H) → S(H) satisfies φ([ρ1, ρ2]) ⊆ [φ(ρ1), φ(ρ2)] for any ρ1, ρ2 ∈ S if and only if φ has one of the following forms ρ 7→ MρM ∗ tr(MρM∗) or ρ 7→ Mρ TM∗ tr(MρTM∗) , where M is an invertible bounded linear operator and ρ is the transpose of ρ with respect to an arbitrarily fixed orthonormal basis.

The witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and its preservers

One of unsolved problems in quantum measurement theory is to characterize coexistence of quantum effects. In this paper, applying positive operator matrix theory, we give a mathematical characterization of the witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and obtain a series of properties of coexistence. We also devote to characterizing bijective morphisms on quantum effects leaving the witness...

Invertible quantum operations and perfect encryption of quantum states

In this note, we characterize the form of an invertible quantum operation, i.e., a completely positive trace preserving linear transformation (a CPTP map) whose inverse is also a CPTP map. The precise form of such maps becomes important in contexts such as self-testing and encryption. We show that these maps correspond to applying a unitary transformation to the state along with an ancilla init...

Chaotic attractors of relaxation oscillators

We develop a general technique for proving the existence of chaotic attractors for three-dimensional vector fields with two time scales. Our results connect two important areas of dynamical systems: the theory of chaotic attractors for discrete two-dimensional Henon-like maps and geometric singular perturbation theory. Two-dimensional Henon-like maps are diffeomorphisms that limit on non-invert...

Strategy for reliable strain measurement in InAs/GaAs materials from high-resolution Z- contrast STEM images

Geometric phase analysis (GPA), a fast and simple Fourier space method for strain analysis, can give useful information on accumulated strain and defect propagation in multiple layers of semiconductors, including quantum dot materials. In this work, GPA has been applied to high resolution Z-contrast scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) images. Strain maps determined from different g...

Representation theory, geometric Langlands duality and categorification

The representation theory of reductive groups, such as the group GLn of invertible complex matrices, is an important topic, with applications to number theory, algebraic geometry, mathematical physics, and quantum topology. One way to study this representation theory is through the geometric Satake correspondence (also known as geometric Langlands duality). This correspondence relates the geome...
