Virtual Quantum Subsystems

The physical resources available to access and manipulate the degrees of freedom of a quantum system define the set $\cal A$ of operationally relevant observables. The algebraic structure of $\cal A$ selects a preferred tensor product structure i.e., a partition into subsystems. The notion of compoundness for quantum system is accordingly relativized. Universal control over virtual subsystems can be achieved by using quantum noncommutative holonomies
