Conditional measurement in noncontextual hidden variables models

Quantum Physics 2012-07-03 v1

Abstract

The noncontextual hidden variables models in d=2d=2, such as the ones constructed by Bell and by Kochen and Specker, have difficulties in accounting for the conditional measurement of two non-orthogonal projectors. An idea of branching in the hidden variables space, which provides a means to realize the notion of reduction effectively and describe the state preparation, is suggested as a way to resolve the difficulties associated with the conditional measurement.
