Counterfactuals and non-locality of quantum mechanics
qyantum mechanics non-locality realism
2008/4/22
In the paper the proof of the non-locality of quantum mechanics, given recently by H. Stapp and D. Bedford, and appealing to the GHZ example, is analyzed. The proof does not contain any explicit assum...
No place for particles in relativistic quantum theories?
localizable particles relativity and quantum theory
2008/4/22
Several recent arguments purport to show that there can be no relativistic, quantum-mechanical theory of localizable particles and, thus, that relativity and quantum mechanics can be reconciled only i...
On the Emergence of Time in Quantum Gravity
quantum gravity emergence quantum geometrodynamics
2008/4/22
We discuss from a philosophical perspective the way in
which the normal concept of time might be said to `emerge'
in a quantum theory of gravity. After an introduction, we
briefly discuss the notio...
Falsifications of Hameroff-Penrose Orch OR Model of Consciousness and Novel Avenues for Development of Quantum Mind Theory
quantum mind consciousness Hameroff-Penrose Orch OR
2008/4/22
In this paper we try to make a clear distinction between quantum mysticism and quantum mind theory. Quackery always accompanies science especially in controversial and still under development areas an...
Quantum Mechanics can be viewed as a linear dynamical theory having a familiar mathematical framework but a mysterious probabilistic interpretation, or as a probabilistic theory having a familiar inte...
Neural Unpredictability, the Interpretation of Quantum Theory, and the Mind-Body Problem
Quantum Theory Neural Unpredictability
2008/4/22
It has been suggested, on the one hand, that quantum states are just states of knowledge; and, on the other, that quantum theory is merely a theory of correlations. These suggestions are confronted wi...
On the problem of emergence of classical space-time: The quantum-mechanical approach
Emergence generalized functions Hilbert space
2008/4/22
The classical space-time structure is derived from the structure of an abstract infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space S. For this S is first realized as a Hilbert space H* of functions of abstr...
Non-locality and gauge freedom in Deutsch and Hayden'sformulation of quantum mechanics
non-locality gauge freedom
2008/4/22
Deutsch and Hayden have proposed an alternative formulation of quantum mechanics which is completely local. We argue that their proposal must be understood as having a form of `gauge freedom' accordin...
This essay is a discussion of the philosophical and foundational issues that arise in non-relativistic quantum theory. After introducing the formalism of the theory, I consider: characterizations of t...
Non-Representationalist Theories of Knowledge and Quantum Mechanics
Quantum Mechanics Non-Representationalist Theories
2008/4/22
Quantum Mechanics has imposed strain on traditional (dualist and representationalist) epistemological conceptions. An alternative was offered by Bohr and Heisenberg, according to whom natural science ...
On Many-Minds Interpretations of Quantum Theory
quantum theory many minds many worlds Everett
2008/4/22
This paper is a response to some recent discussions of many-minds interpretations in the philosophical literature. After an introduction to the many-minds idea, the complexity of quantum states for ma...
On the Property Structure of Realist Collapse of Quantum Mechanics and the So-Called "Counting Anomaly"
counting anomaly properies in quantum mechanics
2008/4/22
The aim of this paper is two-fold. Recently, Lewis has presented an argument, now known as the `counting anomaly', that the spontaneous localization approach to quantum mechanics, suggested by Ghirard...
A complete reappraisal of the philosophical meaning of Everett's interpretation of quantum mechanics is carried out, by analysing carefully the role of the concept of "observer" in physics. It is show...
Physical Relations or Functional Relations ?A non-metaphysical construal of Rovelli’s Relational Quantum Mechanics
Quantum mechanics relational interpretation
2008/4/22
Rovelli’s RQM is first characterized by contrast with both Everett’s and Bohr’s interpretations of quantum mechanics. Then, it is shown that a basic difficulty arises from the choice of formulating RQ...
There is a philosophical tradition of arguing against presentism, the thesis that only presently existing things exist, on the basis of its incompatibility with fundamental physics. I grant that prese...
