The geometrical description of Quantum Mechanics is reviewed and proposed as an alternative picture to the standard ones. The basic notions of observables, states, evolution and composition of
Kraus operators and symmetric groups
• Mathematics

In the contest of open quantum systems, we study a class of Kraus operators whose definition relies on the defining representation of the symmetric groups. We analyze the induced orbits as well as

An explicit Lagrangian description is given for the Heisenberg equation on the algebra of operators of a quantum system, and for the Landau-von Neumann equation on the manifold of quantum states
Nonlinear description of quantum dynamics: Generalized coherent states
• Physics
• 2020
In this work it is shown that there is an inherent nonlinear evolution in the dynamics of the so-called generalized coherent states. To show this, the immersion of a classical manifold into the

On the generators of quantum dynamical semigroups
The notion of a quantum dynamical semigroup is defined using the concept of a completely positive map. An explicit form of a bounded generator of such a semigroup onB(ℋ) is derived. This is a quantum

Making reference to the formalism developed in Part I to formulate Schrodinger quantum mechanics, the properties of Kahlerian functions in general, almost Kahlerian manifolds, are studied.
