 Premise (A) makes clear that SD is the operative definition for characterizing chaotic behavior in this argument, invoking exponential growth characterized by the largest global Lyapunov exponent. Premise (B) expresses the precision limit for the state of minimum uncertainty for momentum and position pairs in an \(N\)-dimensional quantum system (note, the exponent is \(2N\) in the case of uncorrelated electrons).[8] The conclusion of the argument in the form given here is actually stronger than that quantum mechanics can influence a macroscopic system exhibiting SDIC; determinism fails for such systems because of such influences. Briefly, the reasoning runs as follows. Because of SDIC, nonlinear chaotic systems whose initial states can be located only within a small neighborhood \(\varepsilon\) of state space will have future states that can be located only within a much larger patch \(\delta\). For example, two isomorphic nonlinear systems of classical mechanics exhibiting SDIC, whose initial states are localized within \(\varepsilon\), will have future states that can be localized only within \(\delta\). Since quantum mechanics sets a lower bound on the size of the patch of initial conditions, unique evolution must fail for nonlinear chaotic systems.
