On the Stochastic Mechanics Foundation of Quantum Mechanics
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.

Algebraic Quantum Mechanics and Pregeometry [PDF]
We discuss the relation between the q-number approach to quantum mechanics suggested by Dirac and the notion of "pregeometry" introduced by Wheeler. By associating the q-numbers with the elements of an algebra and regarding the primitive idempotents as ...

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

Quantum information theory and the foundations of quantum mechanics [PDF]
This thesis is a contribution to the debate on the implications of quantum information theory for the foundational problems of quantum mechanics. In Part I an attempt is made to shed some light on the nature of information and quantum information theory.

Generalized uncertainty principle and burning stars
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,

How Classical Particles Emerge from the Quantum World. [PDF]
The symmetrization postulates of quantum mechanics (symmetry for bosons, antisymmetry for fermions) are usually taken to entail that quantum particles of the same kind (e.g., electrons) are all in exactly the same state and therefore indistinguishable in

Geometric Event-Based Quantum Mechanics
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

Quantum Theory, Namely the Pure and Reversible Theory of Information
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.
