We present a new self-contained and rigorous proof of the smoothness of invariant fiber bundles for dynamic equations on measure chains or time scales. Here, an invariant fiber bundle is the generalization of an invariant manifold to the nonautonomous case. Our main result generalizes the “Hadamard-Perron theorem” to the time-dependent, infinite-dimensional, noninvertible, and parameter-dependent case, where the linear part is not necessarily hyperbolic with variable growth rates. As a key feature, our proof works without using complicated technical tools.
Die in Englisch verfasste Dissertation, die unter der Betreuung von Herrn Prof. Dr. H. F. de Groote, Fachbereich Mathematik, entstand, ist der Mathematischen Physik zuzuordnen. Sie behandelt Stonesche Spektren von Neumannscher Algebren, observable Funktionen sowie einige Anwendungen in der Physik. Das abschließende Kapitel liefert eine Verallgemeinerung des Kochen-Specker-Theorems. Stonesche Spektren und observable Funktionen wurden von de Groote eingeführt. Das Stonesche Spektrum einer von Neumann-Algebra ist eine Verallgemeinerung des Gelfand-Spektrums, die observablen Funktionen verallgemeinern die Gelfand-Transformierten. Da de Grootes Ergebnisse zum großen Teil unveröffentlicht sind, folgt nach dem Einleitungskapitel im zweiten Kapitel eine Übersichtsdarstellung dieser Ergebnisse. Das dritte Kapitel behandelt die Stoneschen Spektren endlicher von Neumann-Algebren. Für Algebren vom Typ In wird eine vollständige Charakterisierung des Stoneschen Spektrums entwickelt. Zu Typ-II1-Algebren werden einige Resultate vorgestellt. Das vierte Kapitel liefert. einige einfache Anwendungen des Formalismus auf die Physik. Das fünfte Kapitel gibt erstmals einen funktionalanalytischen Beweis des Kochen-Specker-Theorems und liefert die Verallgemeinerung dieses Satzes, wobei die Situation für alle von Neumann-Algebren geklärt wird.
The Kochen-Specker theorem has been discussed intensely ever since its original proof in 1967. It is one of the central no-go theorems of quantum theory, showing the non-existence of a certain kind of hidden states models. In this paper, we first offer a new, non-combinatorial proof for quantum systems with a type I_n factor as algebra of observables, including I_infinity. Afterwards, we give a proof of the Kochen-Specker theorem for an arbitrary von Neumann algebra R without summands of types I_1 and I_2, using a known result on two-valued measures on the projection lattice P(R). Some connections with presheaf formulations as proposed by Isham and Butterfield are made.
We present an overview of the mathematics underlying the quantum Zeno effect. Classical, functional analytic results are put into perspective and compared with more recent ones. This yields some new insights into mathematical preconditions entailing the Zeno paradox, in particular a simplified proof of Misra's and Sudarshan's theorem. We empahsise the complex-analytic structures associated to the issue of existence of the Zeno dynamics. On grounds of the assembled material, we reason about possible future mathematical developments pertaining to the Zeno paradox and its counterpart, the anti-Zeno paradox, both of which seem to be close to complete characterisations.

We study the quantum Zeno effect in quantum statistical mechanics within the operator algebraic framework. We formulate a condition for the appearance of the effect in W*-dynamical systems, in terms of the short-time behaviour of the dynamics. Examples of quantum spin systems show that this condition can be effectively applied to quantum statistical mechanical models. Furthermore, we derive an explicit form of the Zeno generator, and use it to construct Gibbs equilibrium states for the Zeno dynamics. As a concrete example, we consider the X-Y model, for which we show that a frequent measurement at a microscopic level, e.g. a single lattice site, can produce a macroscopic effect in changing the global equilibrium.

Die Arbeiten von Alexander Michailowitsch Lyapunov (1857-1918) waren der Anfangspunkt intensiver Erforschung des Stabilitätsverhaltens von Differentialgleichungen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit sollen Lyapunovfunktionen auf Zeitskalen in Bezug auf das Stabilitätsverhalten des homogenen linearen Systems x-delta = A(t)x untersucht werden.
We modify the concept of LLL-reduction of lattice bases in the sense of Lenstra, Lenstra, Lovasz [LLL82] towards a faster reduction algorithm. We organize LLL-reduction in segments of the basis. Our SLLL-bases approximate the successive minima of the lattice in nearly the same way as LLL-bases. For integer lattices of dimension n given by a basis of length 2exp(O(n)), SLLL-reduction runs in O(n.exp(5+epsilon)) bit operations for every epsilon > 0, compared to O(exp(n7+epsilon)) for the original LLL and to O(exp(n6+epsilon)) for the LLL-algorithms of Schnorr (1988) and Storjohann (1996). We present an even faster algorithm for SLLL-reduction via iterated subsegments running in O(n*exp(3)*log n) arithmetic steps.
