We consider a partial trace transformation which maps a multipartite quantum state to collection of local density matrices. We call this collection a mean field state. For the Hilbert spaces $(\CC^2)^{\otimes n}$ and $\CC^2\otimes\CC^2\otimes\CC^4$ the necessary and sufficient conditions under which a mean field state is compatible with at least one multipartite pure state are found. Compatibility of mean field states with more general classes of multipartite quantum states is discussed.

Let $M_C=\begin{pmatrix} A & C \\ 0 & B \\ \end{pmatrix}\in\LB(\x,\y)$ be be an upper triangulate Banach spaceoperator. The relationship between the spectra of $M_C$ and $M_0,$ and theirvarious distinguished parts, has been studied by a large number of authors inthe recent past. This paper brings forth the important role played by SVEP,the {\it single-valued extension property,} in the study of some of these relations. In this work, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions of implication of the type $M_0$ satisfies property $(w)$ $\Leftrightarrow$ $M_C$ satisfies property $(w)$ to hold. Moreover, we explore certain conditions on $T\in\LB(\hh)$ and $S\in\LB(\K)$ so that the direct sum $T\oplus S$ obeys property $(w)$, where $\hh$ and $\K$ are Hilbert spaces.

Error probability is a popular and well-studied optimization criterion in discriminating non-orthogonal quantum states. It captures the threat from an adversary who can only query the actual state once. However, when the adversary is able to use a brute-force strategy to query the state, discrimination measurement with minimum error probability does not necessarily minimize the number of queries to get the actual state. In light of this, we take Massey's guesswork as the underlying optimization criterion and study the problem of minimum guesswork discrimination. We show that this problem can be reduced to a semidefinite programming problem. Necessary and sufficient conditions when a measurement achieves minimum guesswork are presented. We also reveal the relation between minimum guesswork and minimum error probability. We show that the two criteria generally disagree with each other, except for the special case with two states. Both upper and lower information-theoretic bounds on minimum guesswork are given. For geometrically uniform quantum states, we provide sufficient conditions when a measurement achieves minimum guesswork. Moreover, we give the necessary and sufficient condition under which making no measurement at all would be the optimal strategy.

We study the approximate controllability of a class of fractional partial neutral integro-differential inclusions with infinite delay in Hilbert spaces. By using the analytic α-resolvent operator and the fixed point theorem for discontinuous multivalued operators due to Dhage, a new set of necessary and sufficient conditions are formulated which guarantee the approximate controllability of the nonlinear fractional system. The results are obtained under the assumption that the associated linear system is approximately controllable. An example is provided to illustrate the main results.

The aim of this paper is to provide some existence theorems of a strict pseudocontraction by the way of a hybrid shrinking projection method, involving some necessary and sufficient conditions. The method allows us to obtain a strong convergence iteration for finding some fixed points of a strict pseudocontraction in the framework of real Hilbert spaces. In addition, we also provide certain applications of the main theorems to confirm the existence of the zeros of an inverse strongly monotone operator along with its convergent results.

In this paper, we generalize to 2-mode states the 1-mode state results obtained in a previous paper. We study 2-mode Gaussian density matrices (i.e., density matrices of the form: exponential of a quadratic polynomial in the creation and annihilation operators for the two modes). We find a linear transformation which maps the two annihilation operators, one for each mode, into two new annihilation operators that are uncorrelated and unsqueezed. This allows us to express the density matrix as a product of two 1mode density matrices. We find general conditions under which 2-mode Gaussian density matrices become pure states. Possible pure states include the 2-mode squeezed pure states commonly mentioned in the literature, plus other pure states never mentioned before. We discuss the entropy and thermodynamic laws (Second Law, Fundamental Equation, and Gibbs-Duhem Equation) for the 2-mode states being considered. We study the change in entropy that is produced when a 2-mode Gaussian state is subjected to a measurement of the complex amplitude of one of its two modes. We derive upper and lower bounds for the final (i.e., after the measurement) entropy of the unmeasured mode, and we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the achievement of these bounds. The existence of the bounds is shown to be a consequence of the concavity property of the entropy function.

The notion of partial trace of a density operator is essential for the understanding of the entanglement and separability properties of quantum states. In this paper, we investigate these notions putting an emphasis on the geometrical properties of the covariance ellipsoids of the reduced states. We thereafter focus on Gaussian states and we give new and easily numerically implementable sufficient conditions for the separability of all Gaussian states. Unlike the positive partial transposition criterion, none of these conditions is however necessary.

AbstractWe consider a general regularised interpolation problem for learning a parameter vector from data. The well-known representer theorem says that under certain conditions on the regulariser there exists a solution in the linear span of the data points. This is at the core of kernel methods in machine learning as it makes the problem computationally tractable. Most literature deals only with sufficient conditions for representer theorems in Hilbert spaces and shows that the regulariser being norm-based is sufficient for the existence of a representer theorem. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of representer theorems in reflexive Banach spaces and show that any regulariser has to be essentially norm-based for a representer theorem to exist. Moreover, we illustrate why in a sense reflexivity is the minimal requirement on the function space. We further show that if the learning relies on the linear representer theorem, then the solution is independent of the regulariser and in fact determined by the function space alone. This in particular shows the value of generalising Hilbert space learning theory to Banach spaces.

A generalization of the set of completely positive matrices called pairwise completely positive (PCP) matrices is introduced. These are pairs of matrices that share a joint decomposition so that one of them is necessarily positive semidefinite while the other one is necessarily entrywise non-negative. Basic properties of these matrix pairs are explored and several testable necessary and sufficient conditions are developed to help determine whether or not a pair is PCP. A connection with quantum entanglement is established by showing that determining whether or not a pair of matrices is pairwise completely positive is equivalent to determining whether or not a certain type of quantum state, called a conjugate local diagonal unitary invariant state, is separable. Many of the most important quantum states in entanglement theory are of this type, including isotropic states, mixed Dicke states (up to partial transposition), and maximally correlated states. As a specific application of these results, a wide family of states that have absolutely positive partial transpose are shown to in fact be separable.
