Benefits of Objective Collapse Models for Cosmology and Quantum Gravity
Elias Okon, Daniel Sudarsky
We display a number of advantages of objective collapse theories for the resolution of long-standing problems in cosmology and quantum gravity. In particular, we examine applicatio…
Measurements according to Consistent Histories
Elias Okon, Daniel Sudarsky
We critically evaluate the treatment of the notion of measurement in the Consistent Histories approach to quantum mechanics. We find such a treatment unsatisfactory because it reli…
Position Operators and Center of Mass: New Perspectives
Pedro Aguilar, Chryssomalis Chryssomalakos, Hector Hernandez Coronado +1
After reviewing the work of Pryce on Center-of-Mass (CoM) definitions in special relativity, and that of Jordan and Mukunda on position operators for relativistic particles with sp…
Quantum equivalence principle without mass superselection
H. Hernandez-Coronado, E. Okon
The standard argument for the validity of Einstein's equivalence principle in a non-relativistic quantum context involves the application of a mass superselection rule. It is surpr…
On the Consistency of the Consistent Histories Approach to Quantum Mechanics
Elias Okon, Daniel Sudarsky
The Consistent Histories (CH) formalism aims at a quantum mechanical framework which could be applied even to the universe as a whole. CH stresses the importance of histories for q…
