We propose a novel approach to intrinsic decoherence without adding new assumptions to standard quantum mechanics. We generalize the Liouville equation just by requiring the dynamical semigroup property of time evolution and dropping the…
We propose to analyse the statistical properties of a sequence of vectors using the spectrum of the associated Gram matrix. Such sequences arise e.g. by the repeated action of a deterministic kicked quantum dynamics on an initial condition…
