A model of quantum reduction with decoherence
摘要
The problem of reduction (wave packet reduction) is reexamined under two simple conditions: Reduction is a last step completing decoherence. It acts in commonplace circumstances and should be therefore compatible with the mathematical frame of quantum field theory and the standard model. These conditions lead to an essentially unique model for reduction. Consistency with renormalization and time-reversal violation suggest however a primary action in the vicinity of Planck's length. The inclusion of quantum gravity and the uniqueness of space-time point moreover to generalized quantum theory, first proposed by Gell-Mann and Hartle, as a convenient framework for developing this model into a more complete theory.
