Abstract We develop new techniques for studying the modular and the relative modular flows of general excited states. We show that the class of states obtained by acting on the vacuum (or any cyclic and separating state) with invertible operators from the algebra of a region is dense in the Hilbert space. This enables us to express the modular and the relative modular operators, as well as the relative entropies of generic excited states in terms of the vacuum modular operator and the operator that creates the state. In particular, the modular and the relative modular flows of any state can be expanded in terms of the modular flow of operators in vacuum. We illustrate the formalism with simple examples including states close to the vacuum, and coherent and squeezed states in generalized free field theory.

AbstractWe introduce a new approach to find the Tomita–Takesaki modular flow for multi-component regions in general chiral conformal field theory. Our method is based on locality and analyticity of primary fields as well as the so-called Kubo–Martin–Schwinger (KMS) condition. These features can be used to transform the problem to a Riemann–Hilbert problem on a covering of the complex plane cut along the regions, which is equivalent to an integral equation for the matrix elements of the modular Hamiltonian. Examples are considered.

A pursuit differential game described by an infinite system of 2-systems is studied in Hilbert space l2. Geometric constraints are imposed on control parameters of pursuer and evader. The purpose of pursuer is to bring the state of the system to the origin of the Hilbert space l2 and the evader tries to prevent this. Differential game is completed if the state of the system reaches the origin of l2. The problem is to find a guaranteed pursuit and evasion times. We give an equation for the guaranteed pursuit time and propose an explicit strategy for the pursuer. Additionally, a guaranteed evasion time is found.

Quantization of the electromagnetic field in a class of covariant gauges is performed on a positive metric Hilbert space. Although losing manifest covariance, we find at the free field level the existence of two physical spaces where Poincaré transformations are implemented unitarily. This gives rise to two different physical interpretations of the theory. Unitarity of the S operator for an interaction with an external source then forces one to postulate that a restricted gauge invariance must hold. This singles out one interpretation, the one where two transverse photons are physical.

Given a discrete group G and a spherical G-fusion category whose neutral component has invertible dimension, we use the state-sum method to construct a 3-dimensional Homotopy Quantum Field Theory with target the Eilenberg–MacLane space K(G, 1).

We show how to perform systematically improvable variational calculations in the O(2N) Gross–Neveu model for generic N, in such a way that all infinities usually plaguing such calculations are accounted for in a way compatible with the perturbative renormalization group. The final point is a general framework for the calculation of nonperturbative quantities like condensates, masses, etc., in an asymptotically free field theory. For the Gross–Neveu model, the numerical results obtained from a "two-loop" variational calculation are in a very good agreement with exact quantities down to low values of N.

Let M be a von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space and assume that M has a separating and cyclic vector ω in . Then it can happen that M contains a proper von Neumann subalgebra N for which ω is still cyclic. Such an example was given by Kadison in [4]. He considered and acting on where is a separable Hilbert space. In fact by a result of Dixmier and Maréchal, M, M′ and N have a joint cyclic vector [3]. Also Bratteli and Haagerup constructed such an example ([2], example 4.2) to illustrate the necessity of one of the conditions in the main result of their paper. In fact this situation seems to occur rather often in quantum field theory (see [1] Section 24.2, [3] and [4]).

Stochastic processes on a Hilbert space have been discussed in connection with quantum field theory, theory of partial differential equations involving random terms, filtering theory in electrical engineering and so forth, and the theory of those processes has greatly developed recently by many authors (A. B. Balakrishnan [1, 2], Yu. L. Daletskii [7], D. A. Dawson [8, 9], Z. Haba [12], R. Marcus [18], M. Yor [26]).
