Algebraic approaches for quantum information

C*-modules and quantum entanglement

Description of bipartite quantum systems by using C*-modules, non-commutative eigenvalue equations and Hamiltonian of the system dressed by its environment, weak adiabatic transport and dynamics of quantum entanglement, operator valued geometric phases. Control of bipartite quantum systems.

Quaternionic numbers and quantum decoherence

Competition between decoherence and quantum purification protocols: representations as chaotic dynamical systems on the quaternionic space, fractals involved by the decoherence-purification competition.

Categorical geometry of the dynamics of open quantum systems

Higher gauge theories and categorical bundles in dynamics of entangled systems or in contact with an environment, categories describing mixed states and their transformations.
