• Abstract: Starting from the meaning of the conjugate of a complex Hilbert space, including a related application of the theorem of Fr\'{e}chet-Riesz (by which an analysis of semilinear operators can be reduced to - linear - operator theory) to a revisit of applications of nuclear and absolutely $p$-summing operators in algebraic quantum field theory in the sense of Araki, Haag and Kastler ($p=2$) and more recently in the framework of general probabilistic spaces ($p=1$), we will outline that Banach operator ideals in the sense of Pietsch, or equivalently tensor products of Banach spaces in the sense of Grothendieck are even lurking in the foundations and philosophy of quantum physics and quantum information theory. In particular, we concentrate on their importance in algebraic quantum field theory. In doing so, we establish a canonical isometric isomorphism between the Hilbert spaces $H\otimes_2 (K \otimes_2 L)$ and $(H \otimes_2 K) \otimes_2 L$ (Theorem 3.8) and revisit the role of trace class operators. A few applications are specified, including the appropriateness of the class of Hilbert-Schmidt operators and an implied Banach operator ideal representation of the tensor product of two complex Hilbert spaces $H \otimes_2 K$ (Proposition 3.4) and a purely linear algebraic description of the quantum teleportation process (Example 3.10).

• Continuous percolation in a Hilbert space for a large system of qubits [58.720142291102135]
  The percolation transition is defined through the appearance of the infinite cluster. We show that the exponentially increasing dimensionality of the Hilbert space makes its covering by finite-size hyperspheres inefficient. Our approach to the percolation transition in compact metric spaces may prove useful for its rigorous treatment in other contexts.

• Constraint Inequalities from Hilbert Space Geometry & Efficient Quantum Computation [0.0]
  Useful relations describing arbitrary parameters of given quantum systems can be derived from simple physical constraints imposed on the vectors in the corresponding Hilbert space. We describe the procedure and point out that this parallels the necessary considerations that make Quantum Simulation of quantum fields possible. We suggest how to use these ideas to guide and improve parameterized quantum circuits.

  We show that one can define a suitable space of trace class operators in the non-Archimedean setting. The analogies, but also the several (highly non-trivial) differences, with respect to the case of standard quantum mechanics in a complex Hilbert space are analyzed.

  We present unbiased teleportation schemes for relative commutants $N'cap M$ of a large class of finite-index inclusions $Nsubseteq M$ of tracial von Neumann algebras. We show that any tight teleportation scheme for $N$ necessarily arises from an orthonormal unitary Pimsner-Popa basis of $M_n(mathbbC)$ over $N'$.

A number of models are discussed, which are receiving today new or renewed interest in mathematical physics, in particular from the point of view of realising certain operators of interests self-adjointly.

• Reformulation of Quantum Theory [0.0]
  The standard quantum mechanics over a complex Hilbert space, is a Hamiltonian mechanics, regarding the Hilbert space as a linear real manifold equipped with its canonical symplectic form and restricting only to the expectation-value functions of Hermitian operators. We reformulate the structure of quantum mechanics in the language of symplectic manifold and avoid linear structure of Hilbert space in such a way that the results can be stated for an arbitrary symplectic manifold.

• Emergence of classical behavior in the early universe [68.8204255655161]
  Three notions are often assumed to be essentially equivalent, representing different facets of the same phenomenon. We analyze them in general Friedmann-Lemaitre- Robertson-Walker space-times through the lens of geometric structures on the classical phase space. The analysis shows that: (i) inflation does not play an essential role; classical behavior can emerge much more generally; (ii) the three notions are conceptually distinct; classicality can emerge in one sense but not in another.
