Furthermore, when we allow the Imperialist and the Universalist access to these idealized observables, one can show a precise sense in which they are equivalent interpretations. weak operator closed subalgebra of a Hilbert space is called a von Neumann algebra, so πω(A) will Hilbert space carries its own weak operator topology defined precisely as above, which allows us Ruetsche, however, presents a number of objections to the claim that the universal representation contains all parochial observables. as density operators (or even vectors!) on the Hilbert space HU of the universal representation. convergence as the weak operator topology on the universal representation. ./cache/work_bv2una2m2ffo3cup6uhd3ysh2q.pdf ./txt/work_bv2una2m2ffo3cup6uhd3ysh2q.txt
