Algebraic Quantum Mechanics and Pregeometry [PDF]
, 2006 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 ...

On quantum and relativistic mechanical analogues in mean field spin models [PDF]
, 2014 Conceptual analogies among statistical mechanics and classical or quantum mechanics often appeared in the literature. For classical two-body mean field models, such an analogy is based on the identification between the free energy of Curie-Weiss type ...

Realism and objectivism in quantum mechanics [PDF]
, 2012 The present study attempts to provide a consistent and coherent account of what the world could be like, given the conceptual framework and results of contemporary quantum theory. It is suggested that standard quantum mechanics can, and indeed should, be

Stochastic PDEs with multiscale structure [PDF]
, 2012 We study the spatial homogenisation of parabolic linear stochastic PDEs exhibiting a two-scale structure both at the level of the linear operator and at the level of the Gaussian driving noise.

Quantum information theory and the foundations of quantum mechanics [PDF]
, 2004 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.

On the Classical Limit of Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
, 2008 Contrary to the widespread belief, the problem of the emergence of classical mechanics from quantum mechanics is still open. In spite of many results on the ¯h → 0 asymptotics, it is not yet clear how to explain within standard quantum mechanics the ...

Quantum Information in Geometric Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
, 2011 A fundamental starting point in quantum information theory is the consideration of the von Neumann entropy and its generalization to relative quantum entropies.

A new introductory quantum mechanics curriculum [PDF]
, 2014 The Institute of Physics New Quantum Curriculum consists of freely available online learning and teaching materials (quantumphysics.iop.org) for a first course in university quantum mechanics starting from two-level systems.

Aspects of PT-symmetric quantum mechanics [PDF]
, 2004 PT-symmetric quantum mechanics is an alternative to the usual hermitian quantum mechanics. We will start this thesis by taking an overview of the subject, seeing some of the elementary consequences of this different approach.

Probability in the Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
, 2011 It is argued that, although in the Many-Worlds Interpretation of quantum mechanics there is no ``probability'' for an outcome of a quantum experiment in the usual sense, we can understand why we have an illusion of probability. The explanation involves:
