(pg. 35) The interpretation of quantum mechanics is notoriously difficult, and the interpretation we have just given is not undisputed. There is an extensive literature on the subject in which innumerably many different interpretations have been suggested, with the result that almost everything one can say on this subject has at some point been fiercely denied by someone. ... To add to the confusion, it is tradition to call the probability law ρ a ‘mixed state’, even though it is conceptually something very different from the states ω of classical probability. @philipthrift -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
