The Point of Primitive Ontology
Dustin Lazarovici, Paula Reichert
Bohmian mechanics grounds the predictions of quantum mechanics in precise dynamical laws for a primitive ontology of point particles. In an appraisal of the de-Broglie-Bohm theory,…
Total Collisions in the N-Body Shape Space
Flavio Mercati, Paula Reichert
We discuss the total collision singularities of the gravitational N-body problem on shape space. Shape space is the relational configuration space of the system obtained by quotien…
Investigating total collisions of the Newtonian N-body problem on shape space
Paula Reichert
We analyze the points of total collision of the Newtonian gravitational system on shape space (the relational configuration space of the system). While the Newtonian equations of m…
Essentially Ergodic Behaviour
Paula Reichert
I prove a theorem on the precise connection of the time and phase space average of the Boltzmann equilibrium showing that the behaviour of a dynamical system with a stationary meas…
Arrow(s) of Time without a Past Hypothesis
Dustin Lazarovici, Paula Reichert
The paper discusses recent proposals by Carroll and Chen, as well as Barbour, Koslowski, and Mercati to explain the (thermodynamic) arrow of time without a Past Hypothesis, i.e., t…
