Description
Information-theoretical restrictions on the information transferred in quantum measurements, are regarded for the measurement of quantum object S performed via its interaction with information system O. This information restrictions, induced by Heisenberg commutation relations, are derived in the formalism of inference maps in Hilbert space. O restricted states ξo are calculated from Shroedinger S, O dynamics and the structure of O observables set (algebra); O decoherence by its environment is also accounted for some S, O systems. It's shown that this principal constraints on the information transfer result in the stochasticity of measurement outcomes. Consequently, ξo describes the random 'pointer' outcomes qj, which correspond to the collapse of S pure state
