Abstract
The authors clarify some of the controversial aspects involved in the treatment of the quantum Zeno paradox. An argument for the paradox is given on the basis of the uncertainty principle, and the conditions for the paradox are analysed. Fleming's rule is proved in a simple way. Connection with the standard time-dependent perturbation theory is discussed. They compare the Zeno paradox with the other well known paradoxes of quantum mechanics and point out that the quantum Zeno paradox is immune to the use of the ensemble interpretation which has some success in tackling the other paradoxes. Remarks are made concerning the broader significance of the quantum Zeno paradox.
