Quantum State Reduction: An Operational Approach
Masanao Ozawa
Abstract
A rigorous theory of quantum state reduction, the state change of the measured system caused by a measurement conditional upon the outcome of measurement, is developed fully within quantum mechanics without leading to the vicious circle relative to the von Neumann chain. For the basis of the theory, the local measurement theorem provides the joint probability distribution for the outcomes of local successive measurements on a noninteracting entangled system without assuming the projection postulate, and the quantum Bayes principle enables us to determine operationally the quantum state from a given information on the outcome of measurement.
