A de Broglie-Bohm Model of Pure Shape Dynamics: -body system
Pooya Farokhi, Tim Koslowski, Pedro Naranjo +1
We provide the construction of a de Broglie-Bohm model of the -body system within the framework of Pure Shape Dynamics. The equation of state of the curve in shape space is work…
The Physics and Metaphysics of Pure Shape Dynamics
Antonio Vassallo, Pedro Naranjo, Tim Koslowski
The goal of this essay is twofold. First, it provides a quick look at the foundations of modern relational mechanics by tracing its development from Julian Barbour and Bruno Bertot…
Pure shape dynamics: General framework
Tim Koslowski, Pedro Naranjo, Antonio Vassallo
We put forward a general framework for describing relational physical theories, which we call Pure Shape Dynamics (PSD). Elaborating on the original insights brought about by the S…
The metaphysics of decoherence
Antonio Vassallo, Davide Romano
The paper investigates the type of realism that best suits the framework of decoherence taken at face value without postulating a plurality of worlds, or additional hidden variable…
Does General Relativity Highlight Necessary Connections in Nature?
Antonio Vassallo
The dynamics of general relativity is encoded in a set of ten differential equations, the so-called Einstein field equations. It is usually believed that Einstein's equations repre…
How Humean is Bohumianism?
Tomasz Bigaj, Antonio Vassallo
An important part of the influential Humean doctrine in philosophy is the supervenience principle (sometimes referred to as the principle of separability). This principle asserts t…
