Reversibility conditions for quantum channels and their applications

A necessary condition for reversibility (sufficiency) of a quantum channel with respect to complete families of states with bounded rank is obtained. A full description (up to isometrical equivalence) of all quantum channels reversible with respect to orthogonal and nonorthogonal complete families of pure states is given. Some applications in quantum information theory are considered. The main results can be formulated in terms of the operator algebras theory (as conditions for reversibility of channels between algebras of all bounded operators).Comment: 28 pages, this version contains strengthened results of the previous one and of arXiv:1106.3297; to appear in Sbornik: Mathematics, 204:7 (2013

IBM: parameter symmetry, hidden symmetries and transformations of boson operators

A symmetry of the parameter space of interacting boson models IBM-1 and IBM-2 is studied. The symmetry is associated with linear canonical transformations of boson operators, or, equivalently, with the existence of different realizations of the symmetry algebras of the models. The relevance of the parameter symmetry to physical observables is discussed.Comment: LATEX, 11 pages including 1 eps figure and 1 table prepared as an eps figure; a talk given by A. M.

Generalized compactness in linear spaces and its applications

The class of subsets of locally convex spaces called $\mu$-compact sets is considered. This class contains all compact sets as well as several noncompact sets widely used in applications. It is shown that many results well known for compact sets can be generalized to $\mu$-compact sets. Several examples are considered. The main result of the paper is a generalization to $\mu$-compact convex sets of the Vesterstrom-O'Brien theorem showing equivalence of the particular properties of a compact convex set (s.t. openness of the mixture map, openness of the barycenter map and of its restriction to maximal measures, continuity of a convex hull of any continuous function, continuity of a convex hull of any concave continuous function). It is shown that the Vesterstrom-O'Brien theorem does not hold for pointwise $\mu$-compact convex sets defined by the slight relaxing of the $\mu$-compactness condition. Applications of the obtained results to quantum information theory are considered.Comment: 27 pages, the minor corrections have been mad

On properties of the space of quantum states and their application to construction of entanglement monotones

We consider two properties of the set of quantum states as a convex topological space and some their implications concerning the notions of a convex hull and of a convex roof of a function defined on a subset of quantum states. By using these results we analyze two infinite-dimensional versions (discrete and continuous) of the convex roof construction of entanglement monotones, which is widely used in finite dimensions. It is shown that the discrete version may be 'false' in the sense that the resulting functions may not possess the main property of entanglement monotones while the continuous version can be considered as a 'true' generalized convex roof construction. We give several examples of entanglement monotones produced by this construction. In particular, we consider an infinite-dimensional generalization of the notion of Entanglement of Formation and study its properties.Comment: 34 pages, the minor corrections have been mad

Fine-Tuning Renormalization and Two-particle States in Nonrelativistic Four-fermion Model

Various exact solutions of two-particle eigenvalue problems for nonrelativistic contact four-fermion current-current interaction are obtained. Specifics of Goldstone mode is investigated. The connection between a renormalization procedure and construction of self-adjoint extensions is revealed.Comment: 13 pages, LaTex, no figures, to be published in IJMP

Multi-channel phase-equivalent transformation and supersymmetry

Phase-equivalent transformation of local interaction is generalized to the multi-channel case. Generally, the transformation does not change the number of the bound states in the system and their energies. However, with a special choice of the parameters, the transformation removes one of the bound states and is equivalent to the multi-channel supersymmetry transformation recently suggested by Sparenberg and Baye. Using the transformation, it is also possible to add a bound state to the discrete spectrum of the system at a given energy $E<0$ if the angular momentum at least in one of the coupled channels $l\ge 2$.Comment: 9 pages, revtex; to be published in Phys.

CONSTRUCTIVE DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION CLASSES ON SURFACES IN R^3 AND R^4

Functional classes on a curve in a plane (a partial case of a spatial curve) can be described by the approximation speed by functions that are harmonic in three-dimensional neighbourhoods of the curve. No constructive description of functional classes on rather general surfaces in R 3 and R 4 has been presented in literature so far. The main result of the paper is Theorem 1

Relativistic Operator Description of Photon Polarization

We present an operator approach to the description of photon polarization, based on Wigner's concept of elementary relativistic systems. The theory of unitary representations of the Poincare group, and of parity, are exploited to construct spinlike operators acting on the polarization states of a photon at each fixed energy momentum. The nontrivial topological features of these representations relevant for massless particles, and the departures from the treatment of massive finite spin representations, are highlighted and addressed.Comment: Revtex 9 page

Interactions of a j=1j=1 boson in the 2(2j+1)2(2j+1) component theory

The amplitudes for boson-boson and fermion-boson interactions are calculated in the second order of perturbation theory in the Lobachevsky space. An essential ingredient of the used model is the Weinberg's $2(2j+1)$ component formalism for describing a particle of spin $j$, recently developed substantially. The boson-boson amplitude is then compared with the two-fermion amplitude obtained long ago by Skachkov on the ground of the hamiltonian formulation of quantum field theory on the mass hyperboloid, $p_0^2 -{\bf p}^2=M^2$, proposed by Kadyshevsky. The parametrization of the amplitudes by means of the momentum transfer in the Lobachevsky space leads to same spin structures in the expressions of $T$ matrices for the fermion and the boson cases. However, certain differences are found. Possible physical applications are discussed.Comment: REVTeX 3.0 file. 12pp. Substantially revised version of IFUNAM preprints FT-93-24, FT-93-3
