Functional Approach to Quantum Decoherence and the Classical Final Limit: the Mott and Cosmological problems

TL;DR

This paper explores how quantum systems transition to classical behavior by examining decoherence in the contexts of the Mott and Cosmological problems, providing insights into the quantum-to-classical transition.

Contribution

It introduces a functional approach to analyze decoherence and the classical limit in both Mott and cosmological scenarios, highlighting their similarities.

Findings

Decoherence occurs similarly in Mott and cosmological cases.

The classical final limit can be understood through a unified functional framework.

Insights into quantum measurement and cosmology are gained from the analysis.

Abstract

Decoherence and the approach to the classical final limit are studied in two similar cases: the Mott and the Cosmological problems.
