چکیده
General properties of global covariance matrices representing bipartite Gaussian states can be decomposed into properties of local covariance matrices and their Schur complements. We demonstrate that given a bipartite Gaussian state ρ12 described by a 4 × 4 covariance matrix V, the Schur complement of a local covariance submatrix V1 of it can be interpreted as a new covariance matrix representing a Gaussian operator of party 1 conditioned to local parity measurements on party 2. The connection with a partial parity measurement over a bipartite quantum state and the determination of the reduced Wigner function is given and an operational process of parity measurement is developed. Generalization of this procedure to a n-partite Gaussian state is given and it is demonstrated that the n − 1 system state conditioned to a partial parity projection is given by a covariance matrix such as its 2 × 2 block elements are Schur complements of special local matrices.

We consider the set of all matrices of the form pij = tr[W (Ei ⊗ Fj)] where Ei, Fj are projections on a Hilbert space H, and W is some state on H ⊗ H. We derive the basic properties of this set, compare it with the classical range of probability, and note how its properties may be related to a geometric measures of entanglement.

We present results from a study of light meson spectra and structure obtained within the framework of light-front QCD formulated on a transverse lattice. We discuss how imposing Lorentz covariance conditions on meson dispersion relations allows determination of parameters in the transverse lattice Hamiltonian. The pion distribution amplitude obtained in this framework is rather close to its asy...
