On Tracial Operator Representations of Quantum Decoherence Functionals
A general quantum history theory can be characterised by the space of histories and by the space of decoherence functionals. In this note we consider the situation where the space of histories is given by the lattice of projection operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H. We study operator representations for decoherence functionals on this space of histories. We first give necessar...
متن کاملHilbert Space Representations of Decoherence Functionals and Quantum Measures
We show that any decoherence functional D can be represented by a spanning vector-valued measure on a complex Hilbert space. Moreover, this representation is unique up to an isomorphism when the system is finite. We consider the natural map U from the history Hilbert space K to the standard Hilbert space H of the usual quantum formulation. We show that U is an isomorphism from K onto a closed s...
متن کاملOperator Representations on Quantum Spaces
We deal with quantum spaces of particular importance in physics, i.e., q-deformed Minkowski space and q-deformed Euclidean space in three and four dimensions. For all these cases representations of their covariant differential calculi have been worked out. The explicit formulae refer to left representations, as right representations can be easily deduced from left ones. We are going to show for...
متن کاملThe representation theory of decoherence functionals in history quantum theories
In the first part of this paper the general perspective of history quantum theories is reviewed. History quantum theories provide a conceptual and mathematical framework for formulating quantum theories without a globally defined Hamiltonian time evolution and for introducing the concept of space time event into quantum theory. On a mathematical level a history quantum theory is characterized b...
متن کاملOn the Classification of Decoherence Functionals
The basic ingredients of the consistent histories approach to quantum mechanics are the space of histories and the space of decoherence functionals. In this work we extend the classification theorem for decoherence functionals proven by Isham, Linden and Schreckenberg to the case where the space of histories is the lattice of projection operators on an arbitrary separable or non-separable compl...
