Seven Principles of Quantum Mechanics

Igor Vasil'evich Volovich

The list of basic axioms of quantum mechanics as it was formulated by von Neumann includes only the mathematical formalism of the Hilbert space and its statistical interpretation. We point out that such an approach is too general to be considered as the foundation of quantum mechanics. In particular in this approach any finite-dimensional Hilbert space describes a quantum system. Though such a treatment might be a convenient approximation it can not be considered as a fundamental description of a quantum system and moreover it leads to some paradoxes like Bell's theorem. I present a list from seven basic postulates of axiomatic quantum mechanics. In particular the list includes the axiom describing spatial properties of quantum system. These axioms do not admit a nontrivial realization in the finite-dimensional Hilbert space. One suggests that the axiomatic quantum mechanics is consistent with local realism.

An Axiomatic Approach to the Formalism of Quantum Mechanics. I.

Eduard Prugovečki

An axiomatic formulation of a quantum mechanical formalism is given. The formulation is not in terms of objects associated with the Hilbert space, but in terms of a different kind of objects for which the name ``complex probability measures'' has been chosen. It is shown that the conventional Hilbert-space formalism obeys the given axioms. A few consequences of the axioms are investigated, some of which are found useful in the second part of this work.
