Local preparability of states and the split property in quantum field theory (Q1105816): Difference between revisions

Extending similar results of Buchholz, Doplicher, and Longo, it is shown that the existence of local operations preparing a given local state implies the split property for the local net of observable algebras, i.e., the existence of type I factors interpolating between the observable algebras of regions strictly contained in each other. It is shown that local preparations, if they exist, may be taken to be nonselective.
