Abstract
We map Spekkens’ toy model to a quantum mechanics defined over the finite field . This allows us to define arbitrary linear combinations of the epistemic states in the model. For Spekkens’ elementary system with only 22 = 4 ontic states, the mapping is exact and the two models agree completely. However, for a pair of elementary systems there exist interesting differences between the entangled states of the two models.
