Abstract
Relations, which are ergodic in a generalized sense, are deduced from the laws of quantum theory without any hypothesis of a priori probabilities. These relations are satisfied for the overwhelming majority of the initial state-vectors of any isolated system with very many degrees of freedom.Keywords
