Let : (M1) (M2) be a bijection (not assumed affine nor continuous) between the sets of normal states of two quantum systems, modelled on the self-adjoint parts of von Neumann algebras M1 and M2, respectively. This paper concerns with the situation when preserves (or partially preserves) one of the following three notions of transition probability on the normal state spaces: the transition probability PU introduced by Uhlmann [Rep. Math. Phys. 9, 273-279 (1976)], the transition probability PR introduced by Raggio [Lett. Math. Phys. 6, 233-236 (1982)], and an asymmetric transition probability P0 (as introduced in this article). It is shown that the two systems are isomorphic, i.e., M1 and M2 are Jordan -isomorphic, if preserves all pairs with zero Uhlmann (respectively, Raggio or asymmetric) transition probability, in the sense that for any normal states and , we have P(),()=0 if and only if P(,

The classification and lattice model construction of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in interacting fermion systems are very interesting but challenging. In this paper, we give a systematic fixed-point wave function construction of fermionic SPT (FSPT) states for generic fermionic symmetry group G_f = \mathbb{Z}^f_2 ×_{ω_2} G_b which is a central extension of bosonic symmetry group Gb (may contain time-reversal symmetry) by the fermion parity symmetry group \mathbb{Z}^f_2 = {1,P_f}. Our construction is based on the concept of an equivalence class of finite-depth fermionic symmetric local unitary transformations and decorating symmetry domain wall picture, subjected to certain obstructions. We also discuss the systematical construction and classification of boundary anomalous SPT states which leads to a trivialization of the corresponding bulk FSPT states. Thus, we conjecture that the obstruction-free and trivialization-free constructions naturally lead to a classification of FSPT phases. Each fixed-point wave function admits an exactly solvable commuting-projector Hamiltonian. We believe that our classification scheme can be generalized to point and space group symmetry as well as continuum Lie group symmetry.

We study a static, spherically symmetric system of (2j+ 1) massive Dirac particles, each having angular momentum j, j= 1, 2,..., in a classical gravitational and SU (2) Yang-Mills field. We show that for any black hole solution of the associated Einstein-Dirac-Yang/Mills equations, the spinors must vanish identically outside of the event horizon.

We proved the existence of supersymmetric Hermitian metrics with torsion on a class of non-Kaehler manifolds.
