Article under review for Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical
Calculational error in the Corrigendum to Dressel and Jordan's "Sufficient
conditions for uniqueness of the weak value" - Dr S Parrott
ID: A/463696/COM
BOARD MEMBER'S REPORT
============================
I have looked at the proposed Comment along with the extra material
provided by
the author. My view is that it is not necessary for J Phys A to consider
this
Comment in detail. The author has already made claims about errors in the
paper
by Dressel and Jordan and their Corrigendum in a series of versions of the
comment posted on the arXiv. It is for the readers interested in this area
of
activity to read this material and make their own decision. If the author
can
make sufficient progress on the validity (or not) of the "general theorem"
then
the best course of action would be to write a regular paper on this
contentious
issue, which would be more than welcome for further consideration.
