We discuss the boundedness, Schatten-class properties and scattering theory of Helson matrices. We also discuss a class of Helson matrices induced by positive and signed measures. All the results of this paper are illustrated with several examples not considered earlier.
The Friedrichs model~\cite{Friedrichs} is revisited to obtain precise results about the asymptotic behaviour (the so-called Breit-Wigner formula~\cite{Breit}) of a resonance near an embedded eigenvalue and the ``spectral concentration" results as a corollary. Some of the abstract results involved can also be used to address similar questions about a rank-one perturbation of the Laplacian. Exact asymptotic properties are also obtained for the sojourn time, the scattering amplitude and time delay.
Let $\E$ be a finite dimensional Hilbert space. This note finds all factorizations of the right shift semigroup $§^\E=(S_t^\E)_{t\ge 0}$ on $L^2(\R_+,\E)$ into the product of $n$ commuting contractive semigroups, i.e., characterizes all $n$-tuples of commuting semigroups $(\V_1,\V_2,...,\V_n)$ where $\V_i=(V_{i,t})_{t\ge 0}$ for $i=1,2,...,n$ are semigroups of contractions satisfying $V_{i,t}V_{j,t}=V_{j,t}V_{i,t}$ for all $i$ and $j$ and $S_t^\E=V_{1,t}V_{2,t}\cdots V_{n,t}$ for all $t\ge 0.$ The factorizations are characterized by tuples of self-adjoint operators $\underline{A}=(A_1,A_2,...,A_n)$ and tuples of positive contractions $\underline{B}=(B_1,B_2,...,B_n)$ on $\E$ satisfying certain conditions which are stated in \cref{thm:psi12}. One of the tools of our analysis is a convexity argument using the extreme points of the {\em Herglotz } class of functions \[P:=\{f:\D\to \C \text{ is analytic}, \Re{f}>0 \text{ and }f(0)=1 \}.\]
We study the problem of Quantum Likelihood Operators (LO) and their connection with quantum Fisher information (QFI). It is observed that the present approaches to this problem tacitly assume commutativity of parametrised density matrix $ρ_θ$ and its derivative, which, in general, need not be true, and this has nontrivial consequences in QFI. As examples, we discuss the parametrised two-level system exhaustively, and, as a further example, the one-mode coherent states of an infinite-dimensional system.
The aim of this article is twofold: give a short proof of the existence of real spectral shift function and the associated trace formula for a pair of contractions, the difference of which is trace-class and one of the two a strict contraction, so that the set of assumptions is minimal in comparison to those in all the existing proofs. The second one is to find a trace formula for differences of functions of contraction and its adjoint, in which case, the integral in the formula is over the unit disc and has an expression surprisingly similar to the Helton-Howe formula.
A rooted directed tree $\mathscr T=(V, E)$ with can be extended to a directed graph $\mathscr T_\infty=(V_\infty, E_\infty)$ by adding a vertex $\infty$ to $V$ and declaring each vertex in $V$ as a parent of $\infty.$ One may associate with the extended directed tree a family of semigroup structures $\sqcup_{b}$ with extreme ends being induced by the join operation $\sqcup$ and the meet operation $\sqcap$. Each semigroup structure among these leads to a family of densely defined linear operators $W^{b}_{λ_u}$ acting on $\ell^2(V),$ which we refer to as weighted join operators at a given base point $b \in V_{\infty}$ with prescribed vertex $u \in V$. The extreme ends of this family are weighted join operators $W^{\mathsf{root}}_{λ_u}$ and weighted meet operators $W^{\infty}_{λ_u}$. In this paper, we systematically study these operators. We also present a more involved counter-part of weighted join operators on rootless directed trees. In both cases, the class of weighted join operators overlaps with the well-studied classes of complex Jordan operators and $n$-symmetric operators. An important half of this paper is devoted to the study of rank one extensions $W_{f, g}$ of weighted join operators, where $f \in \ell^2(V)$ and $g : V \to \mathbb C$ is unspecified. Unlike weighted join operators, these operators are not necessarily closed. We provide a couple of compatibility conditions involving the weight system $λ_u$ and $g$ to ensure closedness of $W_{f, g}$. We discuss the role of the Gelfand-triplet in the realization of the Hilbert space adjoint of $W_{f, g}$. Further, we describe various spectral parts of $W_{f, g}$ in terms of the weight system and the tree data. We also provide sufficient conditions for $W_{f, g}$ to be a sectorial operator. In case $\mathscr T$ is leafless, we characterize rank one extensions $W_{f, g}$, which admit compact resolvent.
For a commuting $d$- tuple of operators $\boldsymbol T$ defined on a complex separable Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, let $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ be the $d\times d$ block operator $\big (\!\!\big (\big [ T_j^* , T_i\big ]\big )\!\!\big )$ of the commutators $[T^*_j , T_i] := T^*_j T_i - T_iT_j^*$. We define the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ by symmetrizing the products in the Laplace formula for the determinant of a scalar matrix. We prove that the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ equals the generalized commutator of the $2d$ - tuple of operators, $(T_1,T_1^*, \ldots, T_d,T_d^*)$ introduced earlier by Helton and Howe. We then apply the Amitsur-Levitzki theorem to conclude that for any commuting $d$ - tuple of $d$ - normal operators, the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ must be $0$. We show that if the $d$- tuple $\boldsymbol T$ is cyclic, the determinant of $\big [ \!\!\big [ \boldsymbol T^*, \boldsymbol T \big ]\!\!\big ]$ is non-negative and the compression of a fixed set of words in $T_j^* $ and $T_i$ -- to a nested sequence of finite dimensional subspaces increasing to $\mathcal H$ -- does not grow very rapidly, then the trace of the determinant of the operator $\big [\!\! \big [ \boldsymbol T^* , \boldsymbol T\big ] \!\!\big ]$ is finite. Moreover, an upper bound for this trace is given. This upper bound is shown to be sharp for a class of commuting $d$ - tuples. We make a conjecture of what might be a sharp bound in much greater generality and verify it in many examples.
In recent work of the authors, it was shown how to use any finite quantum stop time to stop the CCR flow and its strongly continuous isometric cocycles (Q. J. Math. 65:1145-1164, 2014). The stopped cocycle was shown to satisfy a stopped form of the cocycle identity, valid for deterministic increments of the time used for stopping. Here, a generalisation of this identity is obtained, where both cocycle parameters are replaced with finite quantum stop times.
In this article, we derive the Helton-Howe-Carey-Pincus trace formula as a consequence of Krein's trace formula.
A natural generalization of Krein's theorem to a pair of commuting tuples $\left(H_1^0,H_2^0\right)$ and $\left(H_1,H_2\right)$ of bounded self-adjoint operators in a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with $H_j-H_j^0 = V_j\in \mathcal{B}_2(\mathcal{H})$(set of all Hilbert-Schmidt operators on $\mathcal{H}$) for $j=1,2,$ leads to a Stokes-like formula under trace. A major ingredient in the proof is the finite-dimensional approximation result for commuting self-adjoint n-tuples of operators, a generalization of Weyl-von Neumann-Berg's theorem.
We give a new method for proving the homomorphic property of a quantum stochastic ow satisfying a quantum stochastic differential equation with unbounded coefficients, under some further hypotheses. As an application, we prove a Trotter product formula for quantum stochastic ows and obtain quantum stochastic dilations of a class of quantum dynamical semigroups generalizing results of [5]
It is shown how to use non-commutative stopping times in order to stop the CCR flow of arbitrary index and also its isometric cocycles, i.e., left operator Markovian cocycles on Boson Fock space. Stopping the CCR flow yields a homomorphism from the semigroup of stopping times, equipped with the convolution product, into the semigroup of unital endomorphisms of the von Neumann algebra of bounded operators on the ambient Fock space. The operators produced by stopping cocycles themselves satisfy a cocycle relation.
In (J. Funct. Anal. 257, 1092-1132 (2009)), Dykema and Skripka showed the existence of higher order spectral shift functions when the unperturbed self-adjoint operator is bounded and the perturbations is Hilbert-Schmidt. In this article, we give a different proof for the existence of spectral shift function for the third order when the unperturbed operator is self-adjoint (bounded or unbounded, but bounded below).
Koplienko gave a trace formula for perturbations of self-adjoint operators by operators of Hilbert-Schmidt class $\mathcal{B}_2(\mathcal{H})$. Recently Gesztesy, Pushnitski and Simon gave an alternative proof of the trace formula when the operators involved are bounded. In this article, we give a still another proof and extend the formula for unbounded case by reducing the problem to a finite dimensional one as in the proof of Krein trace formula by Voiculescu, Sinha and Mohapatra.
A Trotter product formula is established for unitary quantum stochastic processes governed by quantum stochastic differential equations with constant bounded coefficients.
In this paper, we study unitary Gaussian processes with independent increments with which the unitary equivalence to a Hudson-Parthasarathy evolution systems is proved. This gives a generalization of results in [16] and [17] in the absence of the stationarity condition.
This is a continuation of the earlier work \cite{SSS} to characterize stationary unitary increment Gaussian processes. The earlier assumption of uniform continuity is replaced by weak continuity and with a technical assumption on the domain of the generator, unitary equivalence of the processes to the solution of Hudson-Parthasarathy equation is proved.
The aim of this article is to characterize unitary increment process by a quantum stochastic integral representation on symmetric Fock space. Under certain assumptions we have proved its unitary equivalence to a Hudson-Parthasarathy flow.
