Insalata di Matematica 21/02: F. Girotti
Insalata di matematica
Nell'ambito del ciclo Insalate di matematica, venerdì 21 febbraio, alle ore 11.00 in aula 3014 (edificio U5) Federico Girotti, studente di dottorato presso l'Università di Pavia, terrà un seminario dal titolo:
Introduction to noncommutative probability
Abstract: In the first half of the twentieth century Kolmogorov introduced the axioms of classical probability theory; however Quantum Mechanics showed a behaviour which could not be explained within this framework. A more general probability theory incorporating noncommutative structures was formalized by Von Neumann giving birth to Quantum Probability. We will introduce the notion of quantum probability space in finite dimension and we will show how classical probability spaces can be seen as a special instance of quantum probability spaces. On the other hand through Bell’s inequality we will see that the converse is not true. We will then present the quantum analogue of the simplest random variables and stochastic processes: Bernoulli random variables and a Bernoulli random walk.
Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
