Real-Orthogonal Projections as Quantum Pseudo-Logic
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the paper, we study linear operators in complex Hilbert space C that are called real-orthogonal projections, which are a generalization of standard (complex) orthogonal projections but for which only the real part of the scalar product vanishes. We compare some partial order properties of orthogonal and of real-orthogonal projections. In particular, this leads to the observation that a natural analogue of the ordering relationship defined on standard orthogonal projections leads to a nontransitive relationship between real-orthogonal projections. We prove that the set of all real-orthogonal projections in a finite-dimensional complex space is a quantum pseudo-logic, and briefly consider some potential applications of such a structure.

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t about noise-based logic, we showed how simple superpositions of single logic basis vectors can be achieved in a single wire. The superposition components were the N orthogonal logic basis vectors. Supposing that the different logic values have " on/off " states only, the resultant discrete superposition state represents a single number with N bit accuracy i...

In 1981, Takeuti introduced quantum set theory as the quantum counterpart of Boolean valued models of set theory by constructing a model of set theory based on quantum logic represented by the lattice of closed subspaces in a Hilbert space and showed that appropriate quantum counterparts of ZFC axioms hold in the model. Here, Takeuti’s formulation is extended to construct a model of set theory ...
متن کاملA resolution of quantum dynamical semigroups
We consider a class of quantum dissipative systems governed by a one parameter completely positive maps on a von-Neumann algebra. We introduce a notion of recurrent and metastable projections for the dynamics and prove that the unit operator can be decomposed into orthogonal projections where each projections are recurrent or metastable for the dynamics.
