Abstract

We discuss generalized probabilistic models for which states not necessarily obey Kolmogorov’s axioms of probability. We study the relationship between properties and probabilistic measures in this setting, and explore some possible interpretations of these measures.

Fußnoten
1
An orthomodular lattice \(\mathcal {L}\), is defined as an orthocomplemented lattice satisfying that, for any a, b and c, if \(a\le c\), then \(a\vee (a^{\bot }\wedge c)=c\). In the Hilbert space case, projection operators are in one to one correspondence to closed subspaces. These form an orthomodular lattice with “\(\vee \)" representing the closure of the sum of two subspaces, “\(\wedge \)" its intersection, and “\((...)^{\bot }\)"representing the orthogonal complement of a given subspace. “\(\le \)" means subspace inclusion. See [23] for a detailed exposition.

It is important to notice here that different notions of “rational agent” could be used. In particular, it would be interesting to study the possibility of using Dutch Book Arguments in the generalized setting.
