• Title: On-State Commutativity of Measurements and Joint Distributions of Their Outcomes
• Authors: Jan Czajkowski and Alex B. Grilo
• Abstract summary: We analyze joint probability distributions that arise from outcomes of measurements performed on sets of quantum states. We prove that a joint distribution exists iff measurement operators "on-state" permute (permutability is the commutativity of more than two operators) We explore the new concept of on-state commutativity by showing a simple proof that if two projections almost on-state commute, then there is a commuting pair operators that are on-state close to the originals.

• Abstract: In this note, we analyze joint probability distributions that arise from outcomes of sequences of quantum measurements performed on sets of quantum states. First, we identify some properties of these distributions that need to be fulfilled to get a classical behavior. Secondly, we prove that a joint distribution exists iff measurement operators "on-state" permute (permutability is the commutativity of more than two operators). By "on-state" we mean properties of operators that hold only on a subset of states in the Hilbert space. Then, we disprove a conjecture proposed by Carstens, Ebrahimi, Tabia, and Unruh (eprint 2018), which states that the property of partial on-state permutation implies full on-state permutation. We disprove this conjecture with a counterexample where pairwise "on-state" commutativity does not imply on-state permutability, unlike in the case of commutativity for all states in the Hilbert space. Finally, we explore the new concept of on-state commutativity by showing a simple proof that if two projections almost on-state commute, then there is a commuting pair of operators that are on-state close to the originals. This result was originally proven by Hastings (Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2019) for general operators.

  We develop the theory of local operations and classical communication (LOCC) for bipartite quantum systems represented by commuting von Neumann algebras. Our theorem implies that, in a bipartite system modeled by commuting factors in Haag duality, a) all states have infinite one-shot entanglement if and only if the local factors are not of type I. In the appendix, we provide a self-contained treatment of majorization on semifinite von Neumann algebras and $sigma$-finite measure spaces.

We show that with high probability a random SU($d$)-invariant state is close to being maximally entangled with respect to any bipartite cut as the dimension of individual system goes to infinity.

  It is standard to assume that the Wigner distribution of a mixed quantum state consisting of square-integrable functions is a quasi-probability distribution. We introduce a class of quantum states for which this property is satisfied. These states are dubbed "Feichtinger states" because they are defined in terms of a class of functional spaces.
