Translation Invariant States on Twisted Algebras on a Lattice

We construct an algebra with twisted commutation relations and equip it with the shift. For appropriate irregularity of the non-local commutation relations we prove that the tracial state is the only translation-invariant state

Bose Condensate for Quasifree Fermions

We construct the fluctuation algebra for fermions in a quasifree state and its timedependence for quasifree evolutions. We find a Bose-Einstein-condensate and study its stability under interaction

Time-ordering Dependence of Measurements in Teleportation

We trace back the phenomenon of "delayed-choice entanglement swapping" as it was realized in a recent experiment to the commutativity of the projection operators that are involved in the corresponding measurement process. We also propose an experimental set-up which depends on the order of successive measurements corresponding to noncommutative projection operators. In this case entanglement swapping is used to teleport a quantum state from Alice to Bob, where Bob has now the possibility to examine the noncommutativity within the quantum history.Comment: 20 pages, 7 figures; v2; formalism of isometries elaborately discussed, some changes in formulas, figure and reference added; typos correcte

Non-markovian mesoscopic dissipative dynamics of open quantum spin chains

We study the dissipative dynamics of $N$ quantum spins with Lindblad generator consisting of operators scaling as fluctuations, namely with the inverse square-root of $N$. In the large $N$ limit, the microscopic dissipative time-evolution converges to a non-Markovian unitary dynamics on strictly local operators, while at the mesoscopic level of fluctuations it gives rise to a dissipative non-Markovian dynamics. The mesoscopic time-evolution is Gaussian and exhibits either a stable or an unstable asymptotic character; furthermore, the mesoscopic dynamics builds correlations among fluctuations that survive in time even when the original microscopic dynamics is unable to correlate local observables.Comment: 18 page
