We stress that quantum-like modeling elevates the role of convenience and simplicity of quantum representation of states and observables. (We pragmatically ignore the problem of interrelation of CP and QP.) In particular, the quantum state space has the linear structure and linear models are simpler. Transition from classical nonlinear dynamics of electrochemical processes in biosystems to quantum linear dynamics essentially speeds up the state-evolution (Section 8.4). However, in this framework “state” is the quantum information state of a biosystem used for processing of special quantum uncertainty (Section 8.2). | We stress that quantum-like modeling elevates the role of convenience and simplicity of quantum representation of states and observables.

We recall that two observables {{:F:Khrennikov001}} {{:F:Khrennikov002}} and are incompatible if it is impossible to assign values to them jointly. In the probabilistic model, this leads to impossibility to determine their joint probability distribution (JPD). The basic examples of incompatible observables are position and momentum of a quantum system, or spin (or polarization) projections onto different axes. In the mathematical formalism, incompatibility is described as noncommutativity of Hermitian operators {{:F:Khrennikov003}} and {{:F:Khrennikov004}} representing observables, i.e., {{:F:Khrennikov005}} | ||
