Quantum measurement and color perception: theory and applications

Michel Berthier
Edoardo Provenzi

Résumé

In this paper we make a systematic use of the quantum measurement theory to describe perceived colors and analyze some of their fundamental properties. After motivating the naturalness of the quantum measurement approach in the mathematical framework of the color perception theory proposed by the authors in previous papers, we show how to obtain several results. Among our theoretical outcomes, we mention the possibility to confine the color cone to a finite-volume color solid and the link between post-measurement state changes, Lorentz boosts and the Einstein-Poincaré relativistic addition law. We apply these results to obtain a chromatic match equation that emphasizes the importance of the Hilbert-Klein metric on the unit disk and we also present a quantitative description of Hunt's effect.
