Figueiredo, J.M.A - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 335 (2004) 3, pp. 539-553

random sources must be described using a probability amplitude formalism in a close resemblance to Quantum Theory. This fact … shows, for the first time, that probability amplitude is a general concept, not exclusive to the formalism of Quantum Theory …

Orchestrated reduction of quantum coherence in brain microtubules: A model for consciousness

Hameroff, Stuart; Penrose, Roger - In: Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (MATCOM) 40 (1996) 3, pp. 453-480

quantum theory, which describes the fundamental behavior of matter and energy. In this paper we propose that aspects of … quantum theory (e.g. quantum coherence) and of a newly proposed physical phenomenon of quantum wave function “self … reduction” (SR, or R) of standard quantum theory caused by observation or environmental entanglement, the OR we propose in …

Generalized entropy as a measure of quantum uncertainty

Portesi, M; Plastino, A - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 225 (1996) 3, pp. 412-430

A generalized entropy is used in order to advance a different form of expressing the Uncertainty Principle of Quantum mechanics. We consider the generalized entropic formulation for different pairs of incompatible observables. In particular, we study the number-phase entropic uncertainty measure...

Mathematical Basis of Quantum Decision Theory

Yukalov, Vyacheslav I.; Sornette, Didier

Following the ideas of Bohr, Von Neumann, and Benioff, we formulate quantum decision theory (QDT) as the quantum-mechanical theory of measurement for probability operators. QDT captures the effect of superposition of composite prospects, including many incorporated intentions. It is based on the...
