The flat and sharp operators are introduced and explained. Complete positivity is presented as a mathematical property, but it is argued that complete positivity is not a physical requirement of all quantum operations. Negativity, a measure of the lack of complete positivity, is proposed as a tool for empirically testing complete positivity assumptions.\n\nTable of Contents: Preface \/ Acknowledgments \/ Introduction and Definition of Terms \/ Tomography \/ Non-Positive Reduced Dynamics \/ Complete Positivity \/ Physical Motivation of Complete Positivity \/ Measures of Complete Positivity \/ Negative Channels \/ Negative Climates with Diagonal Composite Dynamics \/ Rabi Channels \/ Physical Motivations for Sharp Operations \/ Negative Qubit Channel Examples with Multi-Qubit Baths \/ Proposed Experimental Demonstration of Negativity \/ Implications of Negative Channels \/ Uses for Negative Channels \/ Conclusions \/ Bibliography \/ Author's Biography\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2014-07-11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031013898\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-02517-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x191cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 171\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Morgan \u0026 Claypool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46548035174540,"sku":"9783031013898","price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031013898.jpg?v=1776081409","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783031013898","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
