In this paper we study states, i.e. positive and normalized linear functionals, on a C∗−algebra. The image of a C∗−algebra under its universal representation is a topological subspace and also a C∗−subalgebra of the bounded linear operators defined on the corresponding Hilbert space determined by the Gelfand-Neumark-Segal (GNS) construction. The closure with respect to the weak-operator topology (WOT) of the image is a von Neumann algebra. It is shown that there is a central projection in the…

From Observables and States to Hilbert Space and Back: A 2-Categorical Adjunction
It is shown that the Gelfand–Naimark–Segal (GNS) construction furnishes a left adjoint of this restriction, which must be viewed as a weak natural transformation, a 1-morphism in a suitable 2-category, rather than as a functor between categories.
On trace representation of linear functionals on unbounded operator algebras
In this paper we consider the following problem: Given a *-algebraA of unbounded operators, under what conditions is every strongly positive linear functionalf onA a trace functional, i.e. of the
On postulates for general quantum mechanics
A collection of postulates for the observable quantities in a general quantum mechanical system has been given by Segal, [4]. In this system, the observables form a real Banach space S which is
On analogs of spectral decomposition of a quantum state

The set of quantum states in a Hilbert space is considered. The structure of the set of extreme points of the set of states is investigated and an arbitrary state is represented as the Pettis
Physical uniformities on the state space of nonrelativisitic quantum mechanics
Uniformities describing the distinguishability of states and of observables are discussed in the context of general statistical theories and are shown to be related to distinguished subspaces of

A novel approach to entanglement, based on the Gelfand-Naimark-Segal (GNS) construction, is introduced. It considers states as well as algebras of observables on an equal footing. The conventional
The Local Index Formula in Noncommutative Geometry
In this chapter we present a proof of the Connes–Moscovici index formula, expressing the index of a (twisted) operator $$D$$ in a spectral triple $$(\mathcal {A},\mathcal {H},D)$$ by a local formula.
