A finite-Point Schwarz-Pick Inequality
James Tian
We prove a finite-point version of the Schwarz-Pick inequality for holomorphic self-maps of the disk. The estimate compares Bergman Gram matrices built from several points and thei…
Tree Coordinates and Range Martingales for Positive Operator-Valued Measures
James Tian
Positive operator-valued measures on a tree admit intrinsic local coordinates coming from the way each cylinder value splits into its children. We show that these local splittings,…
Compression Covariance and Tangent kernels
James Tian
Let be self-adjoint on a Hilbert space , let , and let be an orthogonal projection. Relative to the decomposition , write \[ T…
Ordered POVMs and Residual Collapse
James Tian
Ordered realizations of discrete POVMs are studied through a residual transform generated by sequential tests. One application of the transform replaces each coordinate by the effe…
Wavelet-Packet Content for Positive Operators
Myung-Sin Song, James Tian
We study positive operator decompositions associated with rooted trees of orthogonal projections. In this sense, the refinement tree induces an ``MRA in ''. To…
Graph Structured Operator Inequalities and Tsirelson-Type Bounds
James Tian
We establish operator norm bounds for bipartite tensor sums of self-adjoint contractions. The inequalities generalize the analytic structure underlying the Tsirelson and CHSH bound…
