Some Recent Developments in the Decoherent Histories Approach to Quantum Theory
arXiv:quant-ph/0301117 · doi:10.1007/978-3-540-40968-7_5
Abstract
A brief introduction to the decoherent histories approach to quantum theory is given, with emphasis on its role in the discussion of the emergence of classicality from quantum theory. Some applications are discussed, including quantum-classical couplings, the relationship of the histories approach to quantum state diffusion, and the application of the histories approach to situations involving time in a non-trivial way.
