A No-Go Theorem for ψ-ontic Models? Yes! Response to Criticisms
Gabriele Carcassi, Andrea Oldofredi, Christine A. Aidala
This short note addresses the criticisms recently proposed by Shan Gao against our article "On the Reality of the Quantum State Once Again: A No-Go Theorem for ψ-Ontic Models" (Fou…
Relational Quantum Mechanics and the PBR Theorem: A Peaceful Coexistence
Andrea Oldofredi, Claudio Calosi
According to Relational Quantum Mechanics (RQM) the wave function is considered neither a concrete physical item evolving in spacetime, nor an object representing the absolute…
Beables, Primitive Ontology and Beyond: How Theories Meet the World
Andrea Oldofredi
Bohm and Bell's approaches to the foundations of quantum mechanics share notable features with the contemporary Primitive Ontology perspective and Esfeld and Deckert minimalist ont…
Is Quantum Mechanics Self-Interpreting?
Andrea Oldofredi
Fuchs and Peres (2000) claimed that standard Quantum Mechanics needs no interpretation. In this essay, I show the flaws of the arguments presented in support to this thesis. Specif…
Some remarks on the mentalistic reformulation of the measurement problem. A reply to S. Gao
Andrea Oldofredi
Gao (2017) presents a new mentalistic reformulation of the well-known measurement problem affecting the standard formulation of quantum mechanics. According to this author, it is e…
Observables and unobservables in quantum mechanics: How the no-hidden-variables theorems support the Bohmian particle ontology
Dustin Lazarovici, Andrea Oldofredi, Michael A. Esfeld
The paper argues that far from challenging - or even refuting - Bohm's quantum theory, the no-hidden-variables theorems in fact support the Bohmian ontology for quantum mechanics.…
