Quantum Theory in a Nutshell
1. A state of a quantum system is a vector |psi> of unit length in a complex
vector space H.
H is a Hilbert space, but it can be finite dimensional.
Dual vectors are denoted

Dear Mark,
1. The way we think is part of how Nature works.

Dear Terrence,
Condsider the Russell paradox.
Russell set is R = { x a set | x is not a member of itself}.

APPLICATION OF THIS DEFINITION}
then R is not a member of itself since it occurs AFTER the

Thank you. This brings back happy memories of a ten week mathematical visit to

weeks, daily.

I concur wholeheartedly with your stand on this matter.

Dear Krassimir and Mark,
Let us not forget the intermediate question:
How is information independent of the choice of carrier?
This is the fruitful question in my opinion, and it avoids the problem of
assigning existence to that which is relational.
The same problem exists for numbers and other m
proofs or testable clues.
