Consistent histories: Formalism, Interpretation & Key assumptions

In quantum mechanics, the consistent histories or simply "consistent quantum theory" interpretation generalizes the complementarity aspect of the conventional Copenhagen interpretation. The approach is sometimes called decoherent histories and in other work decoherent histories are more specialized.
