Pre- and Post-Selection Paradoxes and Contextuality in Quantum Mechanics

Pre- and Post-Selection Paradoxes and Contextuality in Quantum Mechanics

Many seemingly paradoxical effects are known in the predictions for outcomes of intermediate measurements made on pre- and post-selected quantum systems. Despite appearances, these effects do not demonstrate the impossibility of a noncontextual hidden variable theory, since an explanation in terms of measurement disturbance is possible. Nonetheless, we show that …
