Quantum mechanics without state vectors

Steven Weinberg

Phys. Rev. A 90, 042102 (2014) - Published 2 October, 2014

A proposal is formulated to give up the description of physical states in terms of ensembles of state vectors and to rely only on density matrices instead, which opens up a variety of new ways for density matrices to transform under various symmetries different from the unitary symmetries of ordinary quantum mechanics.
