| abstract

Quantum mechanics (QM) provides a formal framework for modelling uncertainty and dynamic\nevolution in physical systems. While its mathematical structure is well established, its application\nbeyond microscopic phenomena remains an area of active discussion. This work attempts to\nillustrate the axioms of QM in an intuitive and accessible way on a textbook example. The example\nis constructed to make an easy parallel with decision-making tasks.\nThe model considers a rat moving in a finite number of rooms within a box, where some rooms\nare directly connected, while others are not. The rat’s state is represented as a vector in a\nfinite-dimensional Hilbert space, evolving unitarily over time. Measurement corresponds to\nobserving the rat’s presence in a given room, collapsing the state with a probability dictated by the\nBorn rule. Additionally, the rat’s preferences influence the system’s dynamics, introducing a\nsimple analogy to decoherence or external perturbations.\nSuch seemingly trivial example opens a variety of questions concerning interpretation of the\nwhole task and understanding the model behind. This model does not offer new contributions to\nQM theory but serves as a conceptual bridge, demonstrating its fundamental principles in a\nsetting that includes a living organism. The approach may be useful in educational contexts or as\na stepping stone for exploring quantum-inspired models in decision-making and behaviour\nmodelling of living matter. A Jupyter notebook implementation accompanies the theoretical\nformulation, providing an interactive tool for visualization and exploration. The work also\ndiscusses links to contemporary interpretations of QM. |
