The conceptual and formal structure of quantum mechanics is analysed from the point of view of the dynamics of distinctions, occcuring during the observation process. The Hilbert space formalism is simplified with the help of the concept of closure: closure of an eigenstate under an operator is generalized to the linear closure of a subset of states, and this is further simplified to orthogonal...

cating artery was first described by Robinson and demonstrated on angiography by Isherwood and Dutton, 44 cases have been reported (1, 2). Most cases demonstrate unilateral involvement and only 10 cases of bilateral involvement have been reported out of the 45 cases, including the case described in this report. Although cerebral aneurysms are frequently associated with this congenital anomaly, ...
