Are the finite dimensional von Neumann algebras, singly generated?

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a finite dimensional von Neumann algebra, then : $$\mathcal{M} \simeq \bigoplus_i M_{n_i}(\mathbb{C})$$ Question : Is it singly generated (as von Neumann algebra)? how ? ...

Quantum Groups and quantum spaces - From algebra to Analysis

My question will be about the non-standard quantum projective space $\mathcal{A}_q(\mathbb{CP}^n(c,d))$ introduced by Dijkhuizen and Noumi. I want to see this algebra now on a von Neumann algebraic ...

Collection of projection operators in finite dimension and algebraic techinques

Consider a set of linearly independent vectors $\{x_1,\dots,x_n\}$ in some finite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$. For any subset $S \subset [n]$, let $P_S$ be the (orthogonal) projection (operator) ...

Rank–nullity theorem for finite von Neumann algebras

The rank-nullity theorem states that for $U, V$ finite dimensional vector spaces and $T:U \to V$ a linear map $$\dim(U) = \dim(im(T)) + \dim(ker(T)) $$ Let $M \subset B(H) $ be a finite von Neumann ...

Does this inequality of negative relative entropy and quantum relative entropy hold?

Hello, everyone! Question I have a question about the relationship between general relative entropy and general quantum relative entropy: Given a unit vector $|i\rangle$ and two Hermitian matrices $...
