Relational Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Theoretical Physics, 1996
I suggest that the common unease with taking quantum mechanics as a fundamental description of nature (the "measurement problem") could derive from the use of an incorrect notion, as the unease with the Lorentz transformations before Einstein derived ...

Relational Reality in Relativistic Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters A, 2002
Up to now it has been impossible to find a realistic interpretation for the reduction process in relativistic quantum mechanics. The basic problem is the dependence of the states on the frame within which collapse takes place.

Open Problems in Relational Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal for General Philosophy of Science, 2017
The Rovelli relational interpretation of quantum mechanics (RQM) is based on the assumption according to which the notion of observer-independent state of a physical system is to be rejected. In RQM the primary target of the theory is the analysis of the

A Dilemma for Relational Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesPrincipia: An International Journal of Epistemology
Relational quantum mechanics (RQM) is an interesting alternative to the standard responses to the measurement problem in quantum mechanics. But it suffers from a distinctive kind of epistemic solipsism: an observer can’t in principle know anything ...

The Bundle Theory Approach to Relational Quantum Mechanics. [PDF]

open access: yesFound Phys, 2021
AbstractThe present essay provides a new metaphysical interpretation of Relational Quantum Mechanics (RQM) in terms of mereological bundle theory. The essential idea is to claim that a physical system in RQM can be defined as a mereological fusion of properties whose values may vary for different observers.

Assessing relational quantum mechanics

open access: yesSynthese, 2022
Relational Quantum Mechanics (RQM) is an interpretation of quantum theory based on the idea of abolishing the notion of absolute states of systems, in favor of states of systems relative to other systems. Such a move is claimed to solve the conceptual problems of standard quantum mechanics.

The measurement problem in Quantum Mechanics: Convivial Solipsism [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
The problem of measurement is often considered an inconsistency inside the quantum formalism. Many attempts to solve (or to dissolve) it have been made since the inception of quantum mechanics.

Quantum reference frames for general symmetry groups [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2020
A fully relational quantum theory necessarily requires an account of changes of quantum reference frames, where quantum reference frames are quantum systems relative to which other systems are described.

Equivalence of Approaches to Relational Quantum Dynamics in Relativistic Settings

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
We have previously shown that three approaches to relational quantum dynamics—relational Dirac observables, the Page-Wootters formalism and quantum deparametrizations—are equivalent.
