👉 In the context of quantum mechanics, a deconcentrated state is a quantum state in which the probabilities of certain observables are not conserved. This means that some of the probabilities become zero while others remain nonzero. For example, consider a system with a single particle in a harmonic oscillator potential. In this case, the probability of finding the particle at a particular energy level will be conserved, as the wave function is always normalized and its phase cannot change. However, if we decon
