Popis: | We study the problem when an almost commuting $n$-tuple self-adjoint operators in an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space $H$ is close to an $n$-tuple of commuting self-adjoint operators on $H.$ We give an affirmative answer to the problem when the synthetic-spectrum and the essential synthetic-spectrum are close. Examples are also exhibited that, in general, the answer to the problem when $n\ge 3$ is negative even the associated Fredholm index vanishes. In the case that $n=2,$ we show that a pair of almost commuting self-adjoint operators in an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space is close to a commuting pair of self-adjoint operators if and only if a corresponding Fredholm index vanishes outside of an essential synthetic-spectrum. This is an attempt to solve a problem proposed by David Mumford related to quantum theory and measurements. Comment: v2 is a revision |
