Characterising through Erasing: A Theoretical Framework for Representing Documents Inspired by Quantum Theory

The problem of representing text documents within an Information Retrieval system is formulated as an analogy to the problem of representing the quantum states of a physical system. Lexical measurements of text are proposed as a way of representing documents which are akin to physical measurements on quantum states. Consequently, the representation of the text is only known after measurements have been made, and because the process of measuring may destroy parts of the text, the document is characterised through erasure. The mathematical foundations of such a quantum representation of text are provided in this position paper as a starting point for indexing and retrieval within a ``quantum like'' Information Retrieval system.

Classification of Quantum Symmetric Non-zero Sum 2x2 Games in the Eisert Scheme

A quantum game in the Eisert scheme is defined by the payoff matrix, plus some quantum entanglement parameters. In the symmetric nonzero-sum 2x2 games, the relevant features of the game are given by two parameters in the payoff matrix, and only one extra entanglement parameter is introduced by quantizing it in the Eisert scheme. The criteria adopted in this work to classify quantum games are the amount and characteristics of Nash equilibria and Pareto-optimal positions. A new classification based on them is developed for symmetric nonzero-sum classical 2x2 games, as well as classifications for quantum games with different restricted subsets of the total strategy set. Finally, a classification is presented taking the whole set of strategies into account, both unitary strategies and nonunitary strategies studied as convex mixures of unitary strategies. The classification reproduces features which have been previously found in other works, like appearance of multiple equilibria, changes in the character of equilibria, and entanglement regime transitions.
