Microcanonical Monte Carlo simulation of opinion dynamics under the influence of mass media
Yasmín Navarrete, Carlos Femenías, Sergio Davis +1
The formation of large social groups having uniform opinions influenced by mass media is currently an important topic in the social sciences. In this work, we explore and extend an…
The Complexity-Stability Debate, Chemical Organization Theory, and the Identi cation of Non-Classical Structures in Ecology
Tomas Veloz
We present a novel approach to represent ecological systems using reaction networks, and show how a particular framework called Chemical Organization Theory (COT) sheds new light o…
Quantum Theory Methods as a Possible Alternative for the Double-Blind Gold Standard of Evidence-Based Medicine: Outlining a New Research Program
Diederik Aerts, Lester Beltran, Suzette Geriente +4
We motivate the possibility of using notions and methods derived from quantum physics, and more specifically from the research field known as 'quantum cognition', to optimally mode…
Modeling Human Decision-making: An Overview of the Brussels Quantum Approach
Diederik Aerts, Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi, Sandro Sozzo +1
We present the fundamentals of the quantum theoretical approach we have developed in the last decade to model cognitive phenomena that resisted modeling by means of classical logic…
From Quantum Axiomatics to Quantum Conceptuality
Diederik Aerts, Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi, Sandro Sozzo +1
Since its inception, many physicists have seen in quantum mechanics the possibility, if not the necessity, of bringing cognitive aspects into the play, which were instead absent, o…
Quantum cognition goes beyond-quantum: modeling the collective participant in psychological measurements
Diederik Aerts, Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi, Sandro Sozzo +1
In psychological measurements, two levels should be distinguished: the 'individual level', relative to the different participants in a given cognitive situation, and the 'collectiv…
On the Conceptuality Interpretation of Quantum and Relativity Theories
Diederik Aerts, Massimiliano Sassoli de Bianchi, Sandro Sozzo +1
How can we explain the strange behavior of quantum and relativistic entities? Why do they behave in ways that defy our intuition about how physical entities should behave, consider…
Spin and Wind Directions II: A Bell State Quantum Model
Diederik Aerts, Jonito Aerts Arguëlles, Lester Beltran +4
In the first half of this two-part article, we analyzed a cognitive psychology experiment where participants were asked to select pairs of directions that they considered to be the…
Towards a Quantum World Wide Web
Diederik Aerts, Jonito Aerts Arguelles, Lester Beltran +5
We elaborate a quantum model for the meaning associated with corpora of written documents, like the pages forming the World Wide Web. To that end, we are guided by how physicists c…
Fragile systems: A hidden-variable Bayesian framework leading to quantum theory
Yasmin Navarrete, Sergio Davis
An understanding of quantum theory in terms of new, underlying descriptions capable of explaining the existence of non-classical correlations, non-commutativity of measurements and…
Spin and Wind Directions I: Identifying Entanglement in Nature and Cognition
Diederik Aerts, Jonito Aerts Arguëlles, Lester Beltran +4
We present a cognitive psychology experiment where participants were asked to select pairs of spatial directions that they considered to be the best example of 'Two Different Wind…
The Quantum Nature of Identity in Human Thought: Bose-Einstein Statistics for Conceptual Indistinguishability
Diederik Aerts, Sandro Sozzo, Tomas Veloz
Increasing experimental evidence shows that humans combine concepts in a way that violates the rules of classical logic and probability theory. On the other hand, mathematical mode…
Towards a consistent estimate of the chiral low-energy constants
V. Cirigliano, G. Ecker, M. Eidemuller +3
Guided by the large-Nc limit of QCD, we construct the most general chiral resonance Lagrangian that can generate chiral low-energy constants up to O(p^6). By integrating out the re…
