Two Quantum Paradigms, but Still No Signal

Abstract

An overwhelming majority of quantum (pure and mixed) states, when undertaking a POVM measurement, will result in a classical probability with no algorithmic information. Thus most quantum states produce white noise when measured. Furthermore most non-pointer states, when undergoing the decoherence process, will produce white noise. These results can be seen as consequences of the vastness of Hilbert spaces.
