Simulating Quantum Mechanics by Non-Contextual Hidden Variables
Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge, Silver Street, Cambridge CB3 9EW, U.K. (9th August, 1999; revised 10th February, 2000) No physical measurement can be performed with infinite precision. This leaves a loophole in the standard no-go arguments against non-contextual hidden variables. All such arguments rely on choosing special sets of quantum-mech...
متن کاملToy Quantum Mechanics Using Hidden Variables
It is used to state that no local theory assuming any kind of evolving-in-time physical field (hidden variables) can reproduce the same predictions as standard quantum mechanics. Bell formulated a corresponding theorem in [1]. An advanced variant of the theorem was proposed in [2]. Feynman, in [3], stated another but analogous idea: not any classical computational device (even when probabilisti...
متن کاملHidden Variables and Commutativity in Quantum Mechanics
This paper takes up a suggestion that the reason we cannot find hidden variable theories for quantum mechanics, as in Bell’s Theorem, is that we require them to assign joint probability distributions on incompatible observables; these joint distributions are empirically meaningless on one standard interpretation of quantum mechanics. Some have proposed to get around this problem by using genera...
متن کاملNon-Contextual Hidden Variables and Physical Measurements
For a hidden variable theory to be indistinguishable from quantum theory for finite precision measurements, it is enough that its predictions agree for some measurement within the range of precision. Meyer has recently pointed out that the Kochen-Specker theorem, which demonstrates the impossibility of a deterministic hidden variable description of ideal spin measurements on a spin 1 particle, ...
متن کاملHidden Variables Simulating Quantum Contextuality Increasingly Violate the Holevo Bound
In this paper we approach some questions about quantum contextuality with tools from formal logic. In particular, we consider an experiment associated with the PeresMermin square. The language of all possible sequences of outcomes of the experiment is classified in the Chomsky hierarchy and seen to be a regular language. Next, we make the rather evident observation that a finite set of hidden f...
