Dirac - von Neumann axioms in the setting of Continuous Model Theory

Boris Zilber
(Oxford University)
Abstract
I recast the well-known axiom system of quantum mechanics (the Dirac calculus) in the language of Continuous Logic. The main theorem states that along with the canonical continuous model the axioms have approximate finite models of large sizes, in fact the continuous model is isomorphic to an ultraproduct of finite models. I also analyse the continuous logic quantifier corresponding to Dirac integration and show that in finite context it has two versions, local and global, which coincide on Gaussian wave-functions.
Bounds for the number of moves between pants decompositions, and between triangulations

14 November: Mathematicians often like to think of maths as objective. On Friday 14th at 12 pm in N4.01, science communicator Hana Ayoob joins us to discuss how the fact that humans do maths means that the ways maths is developed, used, and communicated are not inherently neutral. A Taylors sandwich lunch will be provided, as at all Friday Mathematrix events. 

Do you take your work home with you? It's kinda hard to avoid if you are a mathematician isn't it? The maths just follows you wherever you go.

Do you work indoors, live or work in or near Oxford, are aged 23–65, and have trouble sleeping?

Researchers at the University of Oxford are running a study to understand how a new light-based behavioural intervention can improve poor sleep.

Take part from home or work as you go about your daily routine. You’ll be supported by a sleep expert to reach simple, achievable goals.
