Constructing Operator Valued Probability Measures in Phase Space
Abstract
Probability measures (quasi probability mass), given in the form of integrals of Wigner function over areas of the underlying phase space, give rise to operator valued probability measures (OVM). General construction methods of OVMs, are investigated in terms of geometric positive trace increasing maps (PTI), for general 1D domains, as well as 2D shapes e.g. circles, disks. Spectral properties of OVMs and operational implementations of their constructing PITs are discussed.
