It is well-known in quantum information theory that a positive operator valued measure (POVM) is the most general kind of quantum measurement. Mathematically, a quantum probability is a normalised POVM, namely a function on certain subsets…

We investigate the influence of the measure in the path integral for Euclidean quantum gravity in four dimensions within the Regge calculus. The action is bounded without additional terms by fixing the average lattice spacing. We set the…
