👉 In the context of quantum mechanics, a state that is not described by a wave function but rather by a "reduced" or simplified version thereof. It's like saying that something is not in its full form, but can be understood as an idealized or simplified model of it. Reconditory states are often used to describe the behavior of quantum systems where the probability amplitude for a measurement outcome depends on the state of the system at another point in time and does not depend solely on the current
