I'm a layman. I understand the basic of the Hilbert Space and can imagine what are basis vectors and eigenvalues (allowable values) and observables (properties like spin, position, momentum, etc) and know operators are operations that involve observables. I also know the basic of the Schroedinger Equation and what it does. However I don't know how to perform differentiation or Integration. Just general idea of it all in verbal form. Now I want to focus on the Born Rule. References out there are just so complex with so many equations. I want to know the basic idea.
I know the Born Rule involves getting particular values of say the position eigenvalues. Is the Rule just like a cooking recipe how to mix certain operations to get the values of the eigenstates whatever they are. Or is Born Rule related primarily with how to create the randomness in the first place. Supposed, just for sake of discussions, determinism is beneath quantum mechanics as proposed by one of the best theoretical physicists today, George t' Hooft in the paper "Determinism Beneath Quantum Mechanics" in http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0212095 What will happen to Born Rule (BR) since BR involves randomness? Will BR disappears or remain as is as Born Rule involves just operations to get certain values of the position eigenstates (without regard to whether they are acquire randomly or has hidden determinism as George proposed)?
