Abstract:
A scheme for constructing quantum mechanics not based on the Hilbert space and linear operators as primary elements of the theory is proposed. A particular variant of the algebraic approach is discussed. The elements of a noncommutative algebra (i.e., the observables) and the nonlinear functionals on this algebra (i.e., the physical states) serve as the primary components of the theory. The functionals are associated with the results of a single measurement. The ensembles of physical states are suggested for the role of quantum states in the standard quantum mechanics. It is shown that the mathematical formalism of the standard quantum mechanics can be fully recovered within this scheme.
