A universal property for sequential measurement

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the sequential product, the operation p∗q=pqpp * q = \sqrt{p} q \sqrt{p} on the set of effects of a von Neumann algebra that represents sequential measurement of first pp and then qq. We give four axioms which completely determine the sequential product.
