On the possibility of a realist ontological commitment in quantum mechanics
A. Oldofredi, M. A. Esfeld
This paper reviews the structure of standard quantum mechanics, introducing the basics of the von Neumann-Dirac axiomatic formulation as well as the well-known Copenhagen interpret…
Individuality and the account of non-locality: the case for the particle ontology in quantum physics
Michael Esfeld
The paper explains why an ontology of permanent point particles that are individuated by their relative positions and that move on continuous trajectories as given by a determinist…
From the universe to subsystems: Why quantum mechanics appears more stochastic than classical mechanics
Andrea Oldofredi, Dustin Lazarovici, Dirk-André Deckert +1
By means of the examples of classical and Bohmian quantum mechanics, we illustrate the well-known ideas of Boltzmann as to how one gets from laws defined for the universe as a whol…
On the Importance of Interpretation in Quantum Physics. A Reply to Elise Crull
Antonio Vassallo, Michael Esfeld
Crull (2014) claims that by invoking decoherence it is possible (i) to obviate many ``fine grained'' issues often conflated under the common designation of measurement problem, and…
Bell's theorem and the issue of determinism and indeterminism
Michael Esfeld
The paper considers the claim that quantum theories with a deterministic dynamics of objects in ordinary space-time, such as Bohmian mechanics, contradict the assumption that the m…
