Conditionalizing and commutativity: a note on Malley
Allen Stairs, Jeffrey Bub
This paper has been withdrawn.
Why the quantum?
Jeffrey Bub
This paper is a commentary on the foundational significance of the Clifton-Bub-Halvorson theorem characterizing quantum theory in terms of three information-theoretic constraints (…
Can quantum cryptography imply quantum mechanics? Reply to Smolin
Hans Halvorson, Jeffrey Bub
Clifton, Bub, and Halvorson (CBH) have argued that quantum mechanics can be derived from three cryptographic, or broadly information-theoretic, axioms. But Smolin disagrees, and he…
Characterizing quantum theory in terms of information-theoretic constraints
Rob Clifton, Jeffrey Bub, Hans Halvorson
We show that three fundamental information-theoretic constraints--the impossibility of superluminal information transfer between two physical systems by performing measurements on…
Maxwell's demon and the thermodynamics of computation
J. Bub
It is generally accepted, following Landauer and Bennett, that the process of measurement involves no minimum entropy cost, but the erasure of information in resetting the memory r…
Revised Proof of the Uniqueness Theorem for 'No Collapse' Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics
Jeffrey Bub, Rob Clifton, Sheldon Goldstein
We show that the Bub-Clifton uniqueness theorem for 'no collapse' interpretations of quantum mechanics (Studies in the History and Philosophy of Modern Physics 27, 181-219 (1996))…
