Freezing a subject's contextualization of a proposition considered in a quantum representation by using a Quantum Zeno effect

摘要

The present invention concerns methods and apparatus for using a Quantum Zeno type effect to arrest the evolution or freeze a contextualization adopted by a subject in contextualizing an underlying proposition that typically revolves about an item. The subject is understood to be any sentient being, e.g., a human being that uses the known contextualization modulo the underlying proposition and also exhibits a known initial measurable indication in response to the underlying proposition. Measurable indications can take on the form of responses, actions, behaviors or any measurable aspects that can be collected from the subject in response to the underlying propositions. In the quantum representation as adopted herein, the matrix encoding the contextualization exhibited by the subject is a quantum mechanical operator and the initial measurable indication corresponds to one of its eigenvalues.
