Quantum theory is logically inevitable

Lars M. Johansen

General relativity required the abandonment of Euclidean geometry. Here we show that quantum theory requires the abandonment of classical logic. We show that the Hilbert space repr…

Non-ideal classical measurements and quantum measurements: a comparative study

Lars M. Johansen, Amir Kalev, Pier A. Mello

Measurements on classical systems are usually idealized and assumed to have infinite precision. In practice, however, any measurement has a finite resolution. We investigate the th…

Order Symmetry of Weak Measurements

Lars M. Johansen, Pier A. Mello

Weak values are usually associated with weak measurements of an observable on a pre- and post-selected ensemble. We show that more generally, weak values are proportional to the co…

Quantum Mechanics of Successive Measurements with Arbitrary Meter Coupling

Lars M. Johansen, Pier A. Mello

We study successive measurements of two observables using von Neumann's measurement model. The two-pointer correlation for arbitrary coupling strength allows retrieving the initial…

A unique quasi-probability for projective yes-no measurements

Lars M. Johansen

From an analysis of projective measurements, it is shown that the Wigner rule is the unique operational quasi-probability for the post-measurement state. A unique pre-measurement q…

Quantum theory of successive projective measurements

Lars M. Johansen

We show that a quantum state may be represented as the sum of a joint probability and a complex quantum modification term. The joint probability and the modification term can both…
