Differentiating the State Evaluation Map from Matrices to Functions on Projective Space

Abstract: We show that the pure state evaluation map from

M_{n} (m a t h b b C)

to

C (m a t h b b C m a t h b b P^{n - 1})

(a completely positive map of

C^{*}

-algebras) extends to a cochain map from the universal calculus on

M_{n} (m a t h b b C)

to the holomorphic

calculus on

m a t h b b C m a t h b b P^{n - 1}

. The method uses connections on Hilbert

C^{*}

-bimodules. This implies the existence of various functors, including one from

M_{n} (m a t h b b C)

modules to holomorphic bundles on

m a t h b b C m a t h b b P^{n - 1}

.
