Wave function collapse implies divergence of average displacement
A. Marchewka, Z. Schuss
abstract: We show that propagating a truncated discontinuous wave function by
Schr\"odinger's equation, as asserted by the collapse axiom, gives rise to
non-existence of the average displacement of the particle on the line. It also
implies that there is no Zeno effect. On the other hand, if the truncation is
done so that the reduced wave function is continuous, the average coordinate is
finite and there is a Zeno effect. Therefore the collapse axiom of measurement
needs to be revised.
