Dispersion-free normal states

Свободные от дисперсии нормальные состояния

Summary

A structure theorem is given forW *-algebras which admit dispersion-free normal states. This theorem is a generalization of von Neumann's classical theorem that dispersion-free density matrices do not exist in quantum mechanics.

Riassunto

Si dà un teorema di struttura per le algebreW * che ammettono stati normali esenti da dispersione. Questo teorema è una generalizzazione del teorema classico di von Neumann sulla non esistenza, in meccanica quantistica, di matrici di densità esenti da dispersione.

Резюме

Приводится структурная теорема дляW *-алгебр, которые допускют свободные от дисперсии нормальные состояния. Эта теорема представляет обобщение классической теоремы фон Неймана, согласно которой свободные от дисперсии матрицы плотности не сушествуют в квантовой механике.
