Abstract

In this paper, I use the spontaneous symmetry breaking mechanism as a supplement to the quantum decoherence theory to explain the wave function collapse after measurements. I show that the ergodicity breaking turns the mixed states into a certain eigenstate and thus we always measure just one particular outcome.
