A Spectral Order For Infinite Dimensional Quantum Spaces: A Preliminary Report, Joe Mashburn
A Spectral Order For Infinite Dimensional Quantum Spaces: A Preliminary Report, Joe Mashburn
Mathematics Faculty Publications
In 2002 Coecke and Martin created a Bayesian order for the finite dimensional spaces of classical states in physics and used this to define a similar order, the spectral order on the finite dimensional quantum states. These orders gave the spaces a structure similar to that of a domain. This allows for measuring information content of states and for determining which partial states are approximations of which pure states. In a previous paper the author extended the Bayesian order to infinite dimensional spaces of classical states. The order on infinite dimensional spaces retains many of the characteristics important to physics, …
A Comparison Of Three Topologies On Ordered Sets, Joe Mashburn
A Comparison Of Three Topologies On Ordered Sets, Joe Mashburn
Mathematics Faculty Publications
We introduce two new topologies on ordered sets: the way below topology and weakly way below topology. These are similar in definition to the Scott topology, but are very different if the set is not continuous. The basic properties of these three topologies are compared. We will show that while domain representable spaces must be Baire, this is not the case with the new topologies.
