Entropy in Foundations of Quantum Physics

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Entropy can be used in studies on foundations of quantum physics in many different ways, each of them using different properties of this mathematical object [...]

Interpretation of Quantum Theory: The Quantum “Grue-Bleen” Problem

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
We present a critique of the many-world interpretation of quantum mechanics, based on different “pictures” that describe the time evolution of an isolated quantum system. Without an externally imposed frame to restrict these possible pictures, the theory

On the Stochastic Mechanics Foundation of Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Among the famous formulations of quantum mechanics, the stochastic picture developed since the middle of the last century remains one of the less known ones.

Geometric Event-Based Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
We propose a special relativistic framework for quantum mechanics. It is based on introducing a Hilbert space for events. Events are taken as primitive notions (as customary in relativity), whereas quantum systems (e.g. fields and particles) are emergent

Generalized uncertainty principle and burning stars

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
Gamow’s theory of the implications of quantum tunneling for star burning has two cornerstones: quantum mechanics and the equipartition theorem. It has been proposed that both of these foundations are affected by the existence of a non-zero minimum length,

"Space is blue and birds fly through it" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Quantum mechanics is not about 'quantum states': it is about values of physical variables. I give a short fresh presentation and update on the $relational$ perspective on the theory, and a comment on its philosophical implications.Comment: Presented to ...

Quantum Theory, Namely the Pure and Reversible Theory of Information

open access: yesEntropy, 2012
After more than a century since its birth, Quantum Theory still eludes our understanding. If asked to describe it, we have to resort to abstract and ad hoc principles about complex Hilbert spaces.

Can the double-slit experiment distinguish between quantum interpretations?

open access: yesCommunications Physics, 2023
Despite the astonishing successes of quantum mechanics, due to some fundamental problems such as the measurement problem and quantum arrival time problem, the predictions of the theory are in some cases not quite clear and unique.

Interpretations of quantum mechanics, and interpretations of violation of Bell's inequality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The discussion of the foundations of quantum mechanics is complicated by the fact that a number of different issues are closely entangled. Three of these issues are i) the interpretation of probability, ii) the choice between realist and empiricist ...
