Formalism and Interpretation in Quantum Theory
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 interpretation but a mysterious formal framework. These points of view are usually taken to be somewhat in tension with one another. The first has generated a vast literature aiming at a “realistic” an...
متن کاملInformation-theoretic interpretation of quantum formalism
We present an information-theoretic interpretation of quantum formalism based on a Bayesian framework and free of any additional axiom or principle. Quantum information is merely construed as a technique of statistical estimation for analyzing a logical system subject to classical constraints, regardless of the specific variables used. The problem is initially formulated in a standard Boolean a...
متن کاملFormalism Locality in Quantum Theory and Quantum Gravity
We expect a theory of Quantum Gravity to be both probabilistic and have indefinite causal structure. Indefinite causal structure poses particular problems for theory formulation since many of the core ideas used in the usual approaches to theory construction depend on having definite causal structure. For example, the notion of a state across space evolving in time requires that we have some de...
متن کاملIncompatibility of the Copenhagen interpretation with quantum mechanics formalism
It is proved the mathematical theorem, that the wave function describes the statistical ensemble of particles, but not a single particle. Supposition, that the wave function describes a single particle appears to be incompatible with formalism of quantum mechanics. Interest to interpretation of quantum mechanics was very large from the very beginning of the quantum mechanics creation up to now....
متن کاملAnthropic interpretation of quantum theory
The problem of interpreting quantum theory on a large (e.g. cosmological) scale has been commonly conceived as a search for objective reality in a framework that is fundamentally probabilistic. The Everett programme attempts to evade the issue by the reintroduction of determinism at the global level of a “state vector of the universe”. The present approach is based on the recognition that, like...
