This recreational paper investigates what happens if we change quantum mechanics in several ways. The main results are as follows. First, if we replace the 2-norm by some other p-norm, then there are no nontrivial norm-preserving linear maps. Second, if we relax the demand that norm be preserved, we end up with a theory that allows rapid solution of PP-complete problems (as well as superluminal signalling). And third, if we restrict amplitudes to be real, we run into a difficulty much simpler than the usual one based on parameter-counting of mixed states.

The composition rule for quantum systems is not the only possible one

Mixture equivalence principles and post-quantum theories of gravity
Møller-Rosenfeld semiclassical gravity, which averages over quantum mixtures, is argued to be a different theory from the semiclassical limit of unitary quantum gravity, which would collapse to a single branch after a...
