We introduce a new quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance between C∗-algebraic compact quantum metric spaces. Because it is able to distinguish algebraic structures, this new distance fixes a weakness of Rieffel’s quantum distance. We show that this new quantum distance has properties analogous to the basic properties of the classical Gromov-Hausdorff distance, and we give criteria for when a parame...

Quantum Coherent Spaces were introduced by Girard as a quantum framework where to interpret the exponential-free fragment of Linear Logic. Aim of this paper is to extend Girard’s interpretation to a subsystem of linear logic with bounded exponentials. We provide deduction rules for the bounded exponentials and, correspondingly, we introduce the novel notion of bounded exponentials of Quantum Co...

We show that the noncommutative spheres of Connes and Landi are quantum homogeneous spaces for certain compact quantum groups. We give a general construction of homogeneous spaces which support noncommutative spin geometries.

Functional quantum theory is defined by an isomorphism of the state space H of a conventional quantum theory into an appropriate functional state space It is a constructive approach to quantum theory in those cases where the state spaces H of physical eigenstates cannot be calculated explicitly like in nonlinear spinor field quantum theory. For the foundation of functional quantum theory approp...

This article begins with a review of quantum measure spaces. Quantum forms and indefinite inner-product spaces are then discussed. The main part of the paper introduces a quantum integral and derives some of its properties. The quantum integral’s form for simple functions is characterized and it is shown that the quantum integral generalizes the Lebesgue integral. A bounded, monotone convergenc...

A quantum deformation of the adjoint action of the special linear group on the variety of nilpotent matrices is introduced. New non-embedded quantum homogeneous spaces are obtained related to certain maximal coadjoint orbits, and known quantum homogeneous spaces are revisited. MSC: 16W35; 20G42; 17B37; 81R50

We prove that noncommutative solenoids are limits, in the sense of the Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity, of quantum tori. From this observation, we prove that noncommutative solenoids can be approximated by finite dimensional quantum compact metric spaces, and that they form a continuous family of quantum compact metric spaces over the space of multipliers of the solenoid, properly metrized.

We study computation of the mean of sequences with values in finite dimensional normed spaces and compare the computational power of classical randomized with that of quantum algorithms for this problem. It turns out that in contrast to the known superiority of quantum algorithms in the scalar case, in high dimensional LMp spaces classical randomized algorithms are essentially as powerful as qu...

An algebraic formulation of Riemannian geometry on quantum spaces is presented, where Riemannian metric, distance, Laplacian, connection, and curvature have their counterparts. This description is also extended ∗email address: [email protected] to complex manifolds. Examples include the quantum sphere, the complex quantum projective spaces and the two-sheeted space.
