Kochen-Specker Theorem for a Single Qubit
The Kochen-Specker theorem (KS) states that Ilonconrextual hidden variable theories are incompatible with quantum mechanics. Since the first proof of the theorem, von Neumann projection measurement has been used and the quantum system considered has dimensionality of at least three. However, r...

| Summary: | The Kochen-Specker theorem (KS) states that
Ilonconrextual hidden variable theories are
incompatible with quantum mechanics. Since the
first proof of the theorem, von Neumann projection
measurement has been used and the quantum
system considered has dimensionality of at least
three. However, recently generalized measurements
represented by positive-operator-va!ued measures
(POVM) have been applied to extend the proof to
two dimensional quantum systems. This note gives
numerical calculations on the first KS proof for a
single qubit. |
