Transcribed Image Text:Question 20: Quantum Probability and Spectral Measures
Problem Statement:
In quantum probability, observables are represented by self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space H.
Let X be a self-adjoint operator representing a quantum observable with spectral measure E.
1. Probability Measures from Quantum States: Given a quantum state p (a positive trace-class
operator with trace one), define the probability measure μp on R by μ(B) = Tr(pE(B)) for
Borel sets B. Prove that up is a well-defined probability measure.
2. Measure-Theoretic Expectation and Variance: Show that the expectation E(X) and variance
Var, (X) of the observable X in the state p can be expressed as
E(X) = [Adµ(A), Var(x) = [ {A – E‚(X))² dµ‚(A).
Provide detailed proofs of these expressions using measure-theoretic integration.
3. Spectral Measures and Quantum Measurements: Analyze how the spectral measure E encodes
the probabilities of different measurement outcomes for X and prove that successive
measurements correspond to measure-theoretic operations on the spectral measures associated
with X.
Requirements:
Connect spectral theory with the foundations of quantum probability.
