Evidence for the epistemic view of quantum states: A toy theory
RW Spekkens - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2007 - APS
We present a toy theory that is based on a simple principle: the number of questions about
the physical state of a system that are answered must always be equal to the number that …

Modal interpretations of quantum mechanics
OI Lombardi, D Dieks - 2017 - ri.conicet.gov.ar
The original" modal interpretation" of non-relativistic quantum theory was born in the early
1970s, and at that time the phrase referred to a single interpretation. The phrase now …

Quantum superpositions and the representation of physical reality beyond measurement outcomes and mathematical structures
C De Ronde - Foundations of Science, 2018 - Springer
In this paper we intend to discuss the importance of providing a physical representation of
quantum superpositions which goes beyond the mere reference to mathematical structures …

The paraconsistent logic of quantum superpositions
Physical superpositions exist both in classical and in quantum physics. However, what is
exactly meant by 'superposition'in each case is extremely different. In this paper we discuss …

[HTML][HTML] Action at a distance in quantum mechanics
J Berkovitz - 2007 - plato.stanford.edu
In the quantum realm, there are curious correlations between the properties of distant
systems. An example of such correlations is provided by the famous Einstein-Podolsky …

Dynamics for modal interpretations
An outstanding problem in so-called modal interpretations of quantum mechanics has been
the specification of a dynamics for the properties introduced in such interpretations. We …
