Abstract

A likelihood order is defined over linear subspaces of a finite dimensional Hilbert space. It is shown that such an order that satisfies some plausible axioms can be represented by a quantum probability in two cases: pure state and uniform measure.

Keywords: likelihood ratio, quantum probability, representation, de-finetti axiom, cancelation
