Indeterminism in physics and intuitionistic mathematics [PDF]

SynthÈse, 2021
Most physics theories are deterministic, with the notable exception of quantum mechanics which, however, comes plagued by the so-called measurement problem.

In Praise of Quantum Uncertainty [PDF]

Entropy, 2020
Quantum uncertainty has a tremendous explanatory power. Coherent superposition, quantum equations of motion, entanglement, nonlocal correlations, dynamical nonlocality, contextuality, discord, counterfactual protocols, weak measurements, quantization ...

Indeterminism belief protects against uncertainty: first empirical findings

Discover Psychology, 2023
We empirically explore whether perceptions of (in)determinism are related to the willingness to tolerate uncertainty. We argue that the belief in indeterminism supports a sense of personal autonomy and independence from external influence, a stance that ...

Compatibilism, Indeterminism, and Chance [PDF]

Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplement, 2018
AbstractMany contemporary compatibilists about free will and determinism are agnostic about whether determinism is true, yet do not doubt that we have free will. They are thus committed to the thesis that free will is compatible with both determinism and indeterminism.

Superluminal transformations and indeterminism

New Journal of Physics
Quantum theory is widely regarded as fundamentally indeterministic, yet classical frameworks can also exhibit indeterminism once infinite information is abandoned.

Quantum Randomness is Chimeric [PDF]

Entropy, 2021
If quantum mechanics is taken for granted, the randomness derived from it may be vacuous or even delusional, yet sufficient for many practical purposes.

Harnessing Uncertainty: Improvisation as a Model for Rapid Behavioral Expansion. [PDF]

Cogn Sci
Abstract While traditional sciences treat uncertainty as an obstacle to be minimized, this paper proposes an epistemic shift: viewing uncertainty as a resource to leverage. To enact this shift, we suggest adopting improvisation—where novel behaviors are instantaneously assembled to meet unpredictable constraints—as a model for real‐time adaptation and ...

Indeterminate colitis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2004
Indeterminate colitis (IC) originally referred to those 10–15% of cases of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in which there was difficulty distinguishing between ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) in the colectomy specimen. However, IC is increasingly used when a definitive diagnosis of UC or CD cannot be made at colonoscopy, in colonic ...

Simondon and Bohm between determinism and indeterminism [PDF]

Filozofija i Društvo, 2022
The radical redefinition of the landscape of physics that followed the contributions of Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg at the start of the 20th century led to plethora [of] new perspectives on age-old metaphysical questions on determinism and ...
