Toy 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 کاملSimulating 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 کاملRobust Constraint Satisfaction and Local Hidden Variables in Quantum Mechanics
Motivated by considerations in quantum mechanics, we introduce the class of robust constraint satisfaction problems in which the question is whether every partial assignment of a certain length can be extended to a solution, provided the partial assignment does not violate any of the constraints of the given instance. We explore the complexity of specific robust colorability and robust satisfia...
متن کاملQuantum Computing and Hidden Variables
This paper initiates the study of hidden variables from a quantum computing perspective. For us, a hidden-variable theory is simply a way to convert a unitary matrix that maps one quantum state to another, into a stochastic matrix that maps the initial probability distribution to the final one in some fixed basis. We list five axioms that we might want such a theory to satisfy, and then investi...
