In 1989 Kusuoka started the study of probabilitymeasures on the shift space that are defined with the help of products of matrices. In particular, he derived a sufficient condition for the ergodicity of such measures, which have since been referred to as Kusuoka measures. We observe that repeated measurements of a unitarily evolving quantum system generate a Kusuokameasure on the space of sequences ofmeasurement outcomes. We show that if the measurement consists of scaled projections, then…

Invariant measure for quantum trajectories
We study a class of Markov chains that model the evolution of a quantum system subject to repeated measurements. Each Markov chain in this class is defined by a measure on the space of matrices, and…

We sketch a quantum mechanical framework for the universe as a whole. Within that framework we propose a program for describing the ultimate origin in quantum cosmology of the quasiclassical domain…
Classical equations for quantum systems.
TLDR
This work investigates the requirements for coarse grainings to yield decoherent sets of histories that are quasiclassical, i.e., such that the individual histories obey, with high probability, effective classical equations of motion interrupted continually by small fluctuations and occasionally by large ones.
Quantum chaos: An entropy approach
A new definition of the entropy of a given dynamical system and of an instrument describing the measurement process is proposed within the operational approach to quantum mechanics. It generalizes…

TLDR
For several model systems with finite-dimensional state space, the probabilities to observe certain symbol sequences and determine the corresponding Renyi entropies K(β) with the help of the transfer-matrix method are calculated.
An operational approach to quantum probability

TLDR
It is seen that for many fractals it is possible to build a class of matrix-valued Gibbs measures completely within the scope of the standard theory; there are naturally some minor modifications, but they are only due to the fact that the authors are dealing with Matrix-valued functions and measures.
Iterated Function Systems and Spectral Decomposition of the Associated Markov Operator
We consider a discrete-Markov chain on a locally compact metric space (X, d) obtained by randomly iterating maps Ti, i ∈ IN, such that the probability pi(x) of choosing a map Ti at each step depends…
