Normal Completely Positive Maps on the Space of Quantum Operations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We define a class of higher-order linear maps that transform quantum operations into quantum operations and satisfy suitable requirements of normality and complete positivity. For this class of maps we prove two dilation theorems that are the analogues of the Stinespring and Radon-Nikodym theorems for quantum operations. A structure theorem for probability measures with values in this class of higher-order maps is also derived.

On Duality between Quantum Maps and Quantum States
We investigate the space of quantum operations, as well as the larger space of maps which are positive, but not completely positive. A constructive criterion for decomposability is presented. A certain class of unistochastic operations, determined by unitary matrices of extended dimensionality, is defined and analyzed. Using the concept of the dynamical matrix and the JamioÃlkowski isomorphism ...
متن کاملThe witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and its preservers
One of unsolved problems in quantum measurement theory is to characterize coexistence of quantum effects. In this paper, applying positive operator matrix theory, we give a mathematical characterization of the witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and obtain a series of properties of coexistence. We also devote to characterizing bijective morphisms on quantum effects leaving the witness...
متن کاملThe Index of a Quantum Dynamical Semigroup
A numerical index is introduced for semigroups of completely positive maps of B(H) which generalizes the index of E0-semigroups. It is shown that the index of a unital completely positive semigroup agrees with the index of its dilation to an E0-semigroup, provided that the dilation is minimal. Introduction. We introduce a numerical index for semigroups P = {Pt : t ≥ 0} of normal completely posi...
متن کاملJarzynski equality for quantum stochastic maps.
Jarzynski equality and related fluctuation theorems can be formulated for various setups. Such an equality was recently derived for nonunitary quantum evolutions described by unital quantum operations, i.e., for completely positive, trace-preserving maps, which preserve the maximally mixed state. We analyze here a more general case of arbitrary quantum operations on finite systems and derive th...
متن کاملCompletely positive classical structures and sequentializable quantum protocols
There are two ways to model classical information in categorical quantum mechanics. Originally, biproducts were used to capture classical information external to the category at hand [2]. Later, so-called classical structures emerged as a way to model classical data internal to the category itself [12, 13, 3]. The setting of most interest to quantum information theory is that of completely posi...
