Quantum Cognition: A New Demonstration of Quantum Collapse Using Mathematical Formulation of Quantum Mechanics by using Clifford Algebra.

Elio Conte

Published Mar 1, 2017• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

Starting with 2010 we gave demonstration of Von Neumann postulates of measurements in quantum mechanics by using Clifford algebra. In this paper we give proof by adding a further demonstration following our previous results on the logical origins of quantum mechanics and on the algebraic nature of mental entities intended as abstract elements of Clifford algebra

An Investigation on the Basic Conceptual Foundations of Quantum Mechanics by Using the Clifford Algebra

Elio Conte

We review our approach to quantum mechanics adding also some new interesting results. We start by giving proof of two important theorems on the existence of the and Clifford algebras. This last algebra gives proof of the von Neumann basic postulates on the quantum measurement explaining thus in an algebraic manner the wave function collapse postulated in standard quantum theory. In this manner we reach the objective to expose a self-consistent version of quantum mechanics. We give proof of the quantum like Heisenberg uncertainty relations, the phenomenon of quantum Mach Zender interference as well as quantum collapse in some cases of physical interest We also discuss the problem of time evolution of quantum systems as well as the changes in space location. We also give demonstration of the Kocken-Specher theorem, and also we give an algebraic formulation and explanation of the EPR . By using the same approach we also derive Bell inequalities. Our formulation is strongly based on the use of idempotents that are contained in Clifford algebra. Their counterpart in quantum mechanics is represented by the projection operators that are interpreted as logical statements, following the basic von Neumann results. Using the Clifford algebra we are able to invert such result. According to the results previously obtained by Orlov in 1994, we are able to give proof that quantum mechanics derives from logic. We show that indeterminism and quantum interference have their origin in the logic.

On the Logical Origins of Quantum Mechanics Demonstrated By Using Clifford Algebra: A Proof that Quantum Interference Arises in a Clifford Algebraic Formulation of Quantum Mechanics

Elio Conte

Abstract: We review a rough scheme of quantum mechanics using the Clifford algebra. Following the steps previously published in a paper by another author [31], we demonstrate that quantum interference arises in a Clifford algebraic formulation of quantum mechanics. In 1932 J. von Neumann showed that projection operators and, in particular, quantum density matrices can be interpreted as logical statements. In accord with a previously obtained result by V. F Orlov, in this paper we invert von Neumann’s result. Instead of constructing logic from quantum mechanics, we construct quantum mechanics from an extended classical logic. It follows that the origins of the two most fundamental quantum phenomena, the indeterminism and the interference of probabilities, lie not in the traditional physics by itself but in the logical structure as realized here by the Clifford algebra.

On the Possibility That We Think in a Quantum Probabilistic Manner

Elio Conte

My discussion is articulated under the neurological as well as the psychological profile. I insist in particular on the view that mental events arise in analogy with quantum probability fields. I review some results obtained on quantum cognition discussing in detail those that we obtained on quantum interference in mental states during perception-cognition in ambiguous figures. Frequently, I use the approach to quantum mechanics by Clifford algebra. I insist in particular on two recent results. The first is the justification that I obtain of the von Neumann postulate on quantum measurement and the second relates my Clifford demonstration on the logical origins of quantum mechanics and thus on the arising feature that quantum mechanics relates conceptual entities. The whole discussion aims me to support the conclusion that we think in a quantum probabilistic manner.

A proof of von Neumann’s postulate in Quantum Mechanics

Elio Conte, Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

A Clifford algebraic analysis is explained. It gives proof of von Neumann’s postulate on quantum measurement. It is of basic significance to explain the problem of quantum wave function reduction in quantum mechanics.

What is The Reason to Use Clifford Algebra in Quantum Cognition? Part II: Information, Cognition and the Principle of Existence are Intrinsically Structured in the Quantum Model of Reality

Elio Conte

The thesis of this paper is that Information, Cognition and a Principle of Existence are intrinsically structured in the quantum model of reality. There is an intrinsic “factor of knowledge” that supports its structure. We reach such evidence by using the Clifford algebra. In detail we analyze quantization in some traditional cases of interest in quantum mechanics and, in particular, in quantum harmonic oscillator, orbital angular momentum and hydrogen atom. We adopt the basic von Neumann results that projection operators represent logical statements and we demonstrated that are intrinsically structured in the cases of quantization that are taken in consideration.
