Quantum Trajectories, State Diffusion and Time Asymmetric Eventum Mechanics

We show that the quantum stochastic Langevin model for continuous in time measurements provides an exact formulation of the Heisenberg uncertainty error-disturbance principle. Moreover, as it was shown in the 80’s, this Markov model induces all stochastic linear and non-linear equations of the phenomenological ”quantum trajectories” such as quantum state diffusion and spontaneous localization b...

Time-reversal invariance and irreversibility in time-asymmetric quantum mechanics

The aim of this paper is to analyze the concepts of time-reversal invariance and irreversibility in the so-called ’time-asymmetric quantum mechanics’. We begin with pointing out the difference between these two concepts. On this basis, we show that irreversibility is not as tightly linked to the semigroup evolution laws of the theory -which lead to its non time-reversal invarianceas usually sug...

Can a quantum state over time resemble a quantum state at a single time?

The standard formalism of quantum theory treats space and time in fundamentally different ways. In particular, a composite system at a given time is represented by a joint state, but the formalism does not prescribe a joint state for a composite of systems at different times. If there were a way of defining such a joint state, this would potentially permit a more even-handed treatment of space ...
