In the paper the geometric properties of the positive cone and positive part of the unit ball of the space of operator-valued continuous space are discussed. In particular we show that ext-ray C+(K,L(H)) = {R+1{k0}x⊗ x : x ∈ S(H), k0 is an isolated point of K} ext B+(C(K,L(H))) = s-ext B+(C(K,L(H))) = {f ∈ C(K,L(H) : f(K) ⊂ ext B+(L(H))}. Moreover we describe exposed, strongly exposed and denti...

The higher order differential energy operator (DEO), denoted via Υk(x), is an extension to the second order famous Teager-Kaiser operator. The DEO helps measuring the higher order gauge of energy of a signal which is useful for AM-FM demodulation. However, the energy criterion defined by the DEO is not compliant with the presumption of positivity of energy. In this paper we introduce a higher o...

We present a general formalism for giving a measure space paired with a separable Hilbert space a quantum version based on a normalized positive operator-valued measure. The latter are built from families of density operators labeled by points of the measure space. We especially focus on various probabilistic aspects of these constructions. Simple or more elaborate examples illustrate the proce...

We discuss a generalization of POVM which is used in quantum-like modeling of mental processing.

Motivated by the classical results of G. Frobenius and O. Perron on the spectral theory of square matrices with nonnegative real entries, D. Evans and R. Høegh-Krohn have studied the spectra of positive linear maps on general (noncommutative) matrix algebras. The notion of irreducibility for positive maps is required for the Frobenius theory of positive maps. In the present article, irreducible...

Abstract. The modal interpretation of quantum mechanics allows one to keep the standard classical definition of realism intact. That is, variables have a definite status for all time and a measurement only tells us which value it had. However, at present modal dynamics are only applicable to situations that are described in the orthodox theory by projective measures. In this paper we extend mod...

An intriguing feature of positive $C_0$-semigroups on function spaces (or more generally Banach lattices) is that their long-time behaviour much easier to describe than it for general semigroups. In particular, the convergence semigroup operators (strongly or in operator norm) as time tends infinity can be characterized by a set simple spectral and compactness conditions. present paper, we show...
