The map (eq:instrument) is CPTP, and for every finite untouched reference ,

For a state ,

The positive-probability conditional state is . No normalized state is assigned to a zero branch. The returned quantum interface excludes .

Proof. The Kraus maps satisfy

Writing , the output blocks are , whose sum is . The same calculation with proves the reference identity. Positivity supplies the branch rule.
