Born rule: quantum probability as classical probability
Ovidiu Cristinel Stoica
I provide a simple derivation of the Born rule as giving a classical probability, that is, the ratio of the measure of favorable states of the system to the measure of its total po…
Is the Wavefunction Already an Object on Space?
Ovidiu Cristinel Stoica
Since the discovery of quantum mechanics, the fact that the wavefunction is defined on the -dimensional configuration space rather than on the -dimensional space ha…
Freedom in the many-worlds interpretation
Ovidiu Cristinel Stoica
I analyze the possibility of free-will in the many-worlds interpretation (MWI), arguing for their compatibility. I use as a starting point Nicolas Gisin's "The Multiverse Pandemic"…
Empirical adequacy of the time operator canonically conjugate to a Hamiltonian generating translations
Ovidiu Cristinel Stoica
To admit a canonically conjugate time operator, the Hamiltonian has to be a generator of translations (like the momentum operator generates translations in space), so its spectrum…
Does quantum mechanics require "conspiracy"?
Ovidiu Cristinel Stoica
Quantum states containing records of incompatible outcomes of quantum measurements are valid states in the tensor-product Hilbert space. Since they contain false records, they conf…
