| The concept was apparently introduced in [(:cite:cwf:DGZ1992)] and is given by the full wave function $\Psi$ of a system with some coordinates fixed at the position of the Bohmian trajectories for some fixed initial position. Thus it is possible to define the notion of the wave function of a subsystem with coordinates $x$, with the rest of the system described in coordinates $y$. If we assume the coordinates $y$ following the [[Bohmian trajectory]] $Y(t)$ in time then the conditional wave function of the subsystem is | The concept was apparently introduced in [(:cite:cwf:DGZ1992)] and is given by the full wave function $\Psi$ of a system with some coordinates fixed at the position of the Bohmian trajectories for a given initial position.
