Extending Bell's Theorem: Nonlocality via Measurement Dependence
G. Bacciagaluppi, R. Hermens, G. Leegwater
Besides well-known conditions of locality or factorisability, deriving the Bell inequalities requires assuming that the distribution of hidden variables and Alice's and Bob's measu…
How Real are Quantum States in -ontic Models?
Ronnie Hermens
There is a longstanding debate on the metaphysical relation between quantum states and the systems they describe. A series of relatively recent ψ-ontology theorems have been taken…
Completely real? A critical note on the claims by Colbeck and Renner
Ronnie Hermens
In a series of papers Colbeck and Renner claim to have shown that the quantum state provides a complete description for the prediction of future measurement outcomes. In this paper…
Bell Inequality Violation and Relativity of Pre- and Postselection
G. Bacciagaluppi, R. Hermens
The Bell inequalities can be violated by postselecting on the results of a measurement of the Bell states. If information about the original state preparation is available, we poin…
Constraints on Macroscopic Realism Without Assuming Non-Invasive Measurability
R. Hermens, O. J. E. Maroney
Macroscopic realism is the thesis that macroscopically observable properties must always have definite values. The idea was introduced by Leggett and Garg (1985), who wished to sho…
Speakable in quantum mechanics: babbling on
Ronnie Hermens
This paper consists of a short version of the derivation of the intuitionistic quantum logic L_QM (which was originally introduced by Caspers, Heunen, Landsman and Spitters). The e…
Conway-Kochen and the Finite Precision Loophole
Ronnie Hermens
Recently Cator & Landsman made a comparison between Bell's Theorem and Conway & Kochen's Strong Free Will Theorem. Their overall conclusion was that the latter is stronger in that…
Speakable in Quantum Mechanics
Ronnie Hermens
At the 1927 Como conference Bohr spoke the now famous words "It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how nature is. Physics concerns what we can say about natu…
The Problem of Contextuality and the Impossibility of Experimental Metaphysics Thereof
Ronnie Hermens
Recently a new impulse has been given to the experimental investigation of contextuality. In this paper we show that for a widely used definition of contextuality there can be no d…
A Weakly Intuitionistic Quantum Logic
Ronnie Hermens
In this paper we motivate and study the possibility of an intuitionistic quantum logic. An explicit investigation of the application of the theory of Bruns and Lakser on distributi…
Quantum Mechanics: From Realism to Intuitionism
Ronnie Hermens
The interpretation of quantum mechanics has been a problem since its founding days. A large contribution to the discussion of possible interpretations of quantum mechanics is given…
