Constructing quantum games from nonfactorizable joint probabilities.
A probabilistic framework is developed that gives a unifying perspective on both the classical and quantum versions of two-player games. We suggest exploiting peculiar joint probabilities involved in Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) experiments to construct a quantum game when the corresponding classical game is obtained from factorizable joint probabilities. We analyze how nonfactorizability chan...
متن کاملConsistency, Amplitudes and Probabilities in Quantum Theory
Quantum theory is formulated as the only consistent way to manipulate probability amplitudes. The crucial ingredient is a consistency constraint: if there are two different ways to compute an amplitude the two answers must agree. This constraint is expressed in the form of functional equations the solution of which leads to the usual sum and product rules for amplitudes. A consequence is that t...
متن کامل20 01 Quantum Theory and Probabilities
It is often stated that quantum mechanics only makes statistical predictions and that a quantum state is described by the various probability distributions associated with it. Can we describe a quantum state completely in terms of probabilities and then use it to describe quantum dynamics? What is the origin of the probability distribution for a maximally specified quantum state? Is quantum mec...
متن کاملQuantum Mechanics as Generalised Theory of Probabilities
The thesis I will defend here comprises two propositions: Firstly, quantum mechanics is not a physical theory that happens to make use of probability calculus; it is itself a generalised form of probability calculus, doubled by a procedure of evaluation that is probabilistic by way of its controlled usage of symmetries. Secondly, quantum mechanics does not have merely a predictive function like...
