Unreasonable Effectiveness

We point out that nonperturbative effects in quantum gravity are sufficient to reconcile the process of black hole evaporation with quantum mechanics. In ordinary processes, these corrections are unimportant because they are suppressed by e-S. However, they gain relevance in information-theoretic considerations because their small size is offset by the corresponding largeness of the Hilbert space. In particular, we show how such corrections can cause the von Neumann entropy of the emitted Hawking quanta to decrease after the Page time, without modifying the thermal nature of each emitted quantum. Second, we show that exponentially suppressed commutators between operators inside and outside the black hole are sufficient to resolve paradoxes associated with the strong subadditivity of entropy without any dramatic modifications of the geometry near the horizon.

Von Neumann Measurements

We present a generalized Bell inequality for two entangled quNits. On one quNit the choice is between two standard von Neumann measurements, whereas for the other quNit there are N^2 different binary measurements. These binary measurements are related to the intermediate states known from eavesdropping in quantum cryptography. The maximum violation by \sqrt{N} is reached for the maximally entangled state. Moreover, for N=2 it coincides with the familiar CHSH-inequality.

AbstractLetB(H) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert spaceHand 𝓐 ⊆B(H) be a von Neumann algebra with no central summands of typeI1. ForA,B∈ 𝓐, define byA∙B=AB+BA∗a new product ofAandB. In this article, it is proved that a map Φ: 𝓐 →B(H) satisfies Φ(A∙B∙C) = Φ(A) ∙B∙C+A∙ Φ(B) ∙C+A∙B∙Φ(C) for allA,B,C∈ 𝓐 if and only if Φ is an additive *-derivation.

Af Algebras

Let A and B be C*-algebras acting on a Hilbert space H, and letwhere A1 is the unit ball in A and d(a, B1) denotes the distance of a from B1. We shall consider the following problem: if ‖A – B‖ is sufficiently small, does it follow that there is a unitary operator u such that uAu* = B?Such questions were first considered by Kadison and Kastler in [9], and have received considerable attention. In particular in the case where A is an approximately finite-dimensional (or hyperfinite) von Neumann algebra, the question has an affirmative answer (cf [3], [8], [12]). We shall show that in the case where A and B are approximately finite-dimensional C*-algebras (AF-algebras) the problem also has a positive answer.

Hilbert Algebras

Let M be a von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space and assume that M has a separating and cyclic vector ω in . Then it can happen that M contains a proper von Neumann subalgebra N for which ω is still cyclic. Such an example was given by Kadison in [4]. He considered and acting on where is a separable Hilbert space. In fact by a result of Dixmier and Maréchal, M, M′ and N have a joint cyclic vector [3]. Also Bratteli and Haagerup constructed such an example ([2], example 4.2) to illustrate the necessity of one of the conditions in the main result of their paper. In fact this situation seems to occur rather often in quantum field theory (see [1] Section 24.2, [3] and [4]).

Symmetric Operators

Let H be a Hilbert space with inner product 〈,). A well-known theorem of von Neumann states that, if S is a symmetric operator in H, then S has a selfadjoint extension in H if and only if S has equal deficiency indices. This result was extended by Naimark, who proved that, even if the deficiency indices of S are unequal, there always exists a Hilbert space H1 such that H ⊆ H1 and S has a selfadjoint extension in H1.

The Subject

In (2) Halmos and Kakutani proved that any unitary operator on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space is a product of at most four symmetries (self-adjoint unitaries). It is the purpose of this paper to show that if the unitary is an element of a properly infinite von Neumann algebraA(i.e., one with no finite non-zero central projections), then the symmetries may be chosen fromA.A principal tool used in establishing this result is Theorem 1, which was proved by Murray and von Neumann (6, 3.2.3) for type II1factors; see also (3, Lemma 5). The author would like to thank David Topping for raising the question, and for several stimulating conversations on the subject. He is also indebted to the referee for several helpful suggestions.

In the papers [9, 10, 3, 11] on perturbations of Hilbert space operators, we studied an invariant (τ) where is a normed ideal of compact operators and τ a family of operators. The size of an ideal for which (τ) vanishes or does not vanish is an upper, respectively lower, bound for a kind of dimension of τ. In the case of systems of commuting self-adjoint operators τ, the results of [9,3] relate (τ) with (an ideal slightly smaller than the Schatten von Neumann class ) to the way the spectral measure of τ compares to p-dimensional Hausdorff measure.

Abstract We investigate measurement theory in classical mechanics in the formulation of classical mechanics by Koopman and von Neumann (KvN), which uses Hilbert space. We show a difference between classical and quantum mechanics in the “relative interpretation” of the state of the target of measurement and the state of the measurement device. We also derive the uncertainty relation in classical mechanics.
