Cs 798: Theory of Quantum Information Linear Algebra and Analysis 1 Linear Algebra

چکیده
The purpose of this first set of lecture notes is to summarize background material on linear algebra and analysis that is used throughout the course. Proofs of most of the stated facts may be found in the references listed at the end of the notes. It is my intention that this first set of notes will mostly serve as a useful reference later in the course. The theory of quantum information is based on linear algebra, and in particular the study of finite dimensional vector spaces over the real or complex numbers. We will mostly focus on complex vector spaces, but sometimes it will be necessary to work with real vector spaces. Vector spaces over the real or complex numbers will be denoted by scripted capital letters in this course, generally near the end of the alphabet such as X , Y, and Z. Elements of these spaces will be denoted by lowercase Roman letters such as u, v, w and x. Subsets of vector spaces, which may not themselves be vector spaces, will also be denoted by scripted letters, usually near the beginning of the alphabet such as A, B, and C. The field of real numbers is denoted R and the field of complex numbers is denoted C. The first two properties imply conjugate linearity in the first argument: A norm on a complex vector space X over C is a function ν : X → R that satisfies the following properties. 1. Positive definiteness: ν(u) > 0 for all u ∈ X \{0} and ν(0) = 0. 2. Positive scalability: ν(αu) = |α| ν(u) for all u ∈ X and α ∈ C. 3. The Triangle Inequality: ν(u + v) ≤ ν(u) + ν(v) for all u, v ∈ X .

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...
متن کاملA brief introduction to quaternion matrices and linear algebra and on bounded groups of quaternion matrices
The division algebra of real quaternions, as the only noncommutative normed division real algebra up to isomorphism of normed algebras, is of great importance. In this note, first we present a brief introduction to quaternion matrices and quaternion linear algebra. This, among other things, will help us present the counterpart of a theorem of Herman Auerbach in the setting of quaternions. More ...
متن کاملLinear v{C}ech closure spaces
In this paper, we introduce the concept of linear v{C}ech closure spaces and establish the properties of open sets in linear v{C}ech closure spaces (Lv{C}CS). Here, we observe that the concept of linearity is preserved by semi-open sets, g-semi open sets, $gamma$-open sets, sgc-dense sets and compact sets in Lv{C}CS. We also discuss the concept of relative v{C}ech closure operator, meet and pro...
متن کاملSome results on Haar wavelets matrix through linear algebra
Can we characterize the wavelets through linear transformation? the answer for this question is certainly YES. In this paper we have characterized the Haar wavelet matrix by their linear transformation and proved some theorems on properties of Haar wavelet matrix such as Trace, eigenvalue and eigenvector and diagonalization of a matrix.
متن کاملSpectrum Preserving Linear Maps Between Banach Algebras
In this paper we show that if A is a unital Banach algebra and B is a purely innite C*-algebra such that has a non-zero commutative maximal ideal and $phi:A rightarrow B$ is a unital surjective spectrum preserving linear map. Then $phi$ is a Jordan homomorphism.
