Quantum Mechanics is About Quantum Information
I argue that quantum mechanics is fundamentally a theory about the representation and manipulation of information, not a theory about the mechanics of nonclassical waves or particles. The notion of quantum information is to be understood as a new physical primitive—just as, following Einstein’s special theory of relativity, a field is no longer regarded as the physical manifestation of vibratio...
متن کاملTwo Dogmas About Quantum Mechanics
We argue that the intractable part of the measurement problem—the ‘big’ measurement problem—is a pseudo-problem that depends for its legitimacy on the acceptance of two dogmas. The first dogma is John Bell’s assertion that measurement should never be introduced as a primitive process in a fundamental mechanical theory like classical or quantum mechanics, but should always be open to a complete ...
متن کاملSuper quantum mechanics, spacetime and quantum information
In the paper it is shown the connection between spacetime and quantum information using an information spacetime as superspace. The connection of quantum information with anticommuting variables is given . Also a solitonic bag is presented where the information is confined. 1 Some ideas from quantum information and super quantum mechanics A quantum bit (qubit) is a quantum system with a two-dim...

متن کاملQuantum Mechanics as Quantum Information, Mostly
In this paper, I try to cause some good-natured trouble. The issue is, when will we ever stop burdening the taxpayer with conferences devoted to the quantum foundations? The suspicion is expressed that no end will be in sight until a means is found to reduce quantum theory to two or three statements of crisp physical (rather than abstract, axiomatic) significance. In this regard, no tool appear...
