IS ONTIC STRUCTURAL REALISM A VIABLE FORM OF NATURALIZED METAPHYSICS?

Mas o fisicalismo enfrenta um problema muito sério e bastante conhecido, o dilema de Hempel. O problema pode

Is the world made of loops? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
I see no good reason to prefer (any version I know of) the `holonomy interpretation' to the `potential interpretation' of the Aharonov-Bohm effect. Everyone agrees that the inverse image $[A]=[A+d\lambda]_{\lambda}=d^{-1}F$ of the electromagnetic field ...
