Discrete probabilistic and algebraic dynamics: a stochastic commutative Gelfand-Naimark Theorem. (arXiv:1708.00091v2 [math.FA] UPDATED)
来源于:arXiv
We introduce a category of stochastic maps (certain Markov kernels) on
compact Hausdorff spaces, construct a stochastic analogue of the Gelfand
spectrum functor, and prove a stochastic version of the commutative
Gelfand-Naimark Theorem. This relates concepts from algebra and operator theory
to concepts from topology and probability theory. For completeness, we review
stochastic matrices, their relationship to positive maps on commutative
$C^*$-algebras, and the Gelfand-Naimark Theorem. No knowledge of probability
theory nor $C^*$-algebras is assumed and several examples are drawn from
physics. 查看全文>>
