Time, Quantum Mechanics, and Probability
A variety of ideas arisiüg in decoherence theory, and in the ongoing debate over Everetts relative-state theory, can be linked to issues in relativity theory and the philosophy of time, speci cally the relational theory of tense and of identity over time. These have been systematically presented in companion papers (Saunders 1995, 1996a); in what follows we shall consider the same circle of id...
متن کاملProbability in modal interpretations of quantum mechanics
Modal interpretations have the ambition to construe quantum mechanics as an objective, man-independent description of physical reality. Their second leading idea is probabilism: quantum mechanics does not completely fix physical reality but yields probabilities. In working out these ideas an important motif is to stay close to the standard formalism of quantum mechanics and to refrain from intr...
متن کاملHalting probability amplitude of quantum computers
The classical halting probability introduced by Chaitin is generalized to quantum computations. Chaitin's [1, 2, 3] is a magic number. It is a measure for arbitrary programs to take a nite number of execution steps and then halt. It contains the solution for all halting problems, and hence to questions codable into halting problems, such as Fermat's theorem. It contains the solution for the que...
متن کاملSome notes on probability in quantum mechanics
(i) Ordinary objects (including people) can exist at what I call ’Schrödinger worlds’— worlds at which some sort of realism is true for configuration space(-time) as well as ordinary physical space(-time), where there is a wavefunction that always evolves in accordance with Schrödinger’s equation, and no surplus structure (‘hidden variables’) beyond what is summed up in the wavefunction. I use ...
متن کاملObjective Probability in Everettian Quantum Mechanics
David Wallace has given a decision-theoretic argument for the Born Rule in the context of Everettian quantum mechanics (EQM). This approach promises to resolve some long-standing problems with probability in EQM, but it has faced plenty of resistance. One kind of objection (the ‘Incoherence problem’) charges that the requisite notion of decision-theoretic uncertainty is unavailable in the Evere...
