Feynman-path analysis of Hardy's paradox: measurements and the uncertainty principle

Hardy's paradox is analysed within Feynman's formulation of quantum mechanics. A transition amplitude is represented as a sum over virtual paths which different intermediate measurements convert into different sets of real pathways. Contradictory statements emerge when applying to the same...

Zusammenfassung:Hardy's paradox is analysed within Feynman's formulation of quantum mechanics. A transition amplitude is represented as a sum over virtual paths which different intermediate measurements convert into different sets of real pathways. Contradictory statements emerge when applying to the same statistical ensemble. The "strange" weak values result is also investigated in this context.
