On the logic resolution of the wave particle duality paradox in quantum mechanics (Extended abstract)
Nait Abdallah, M.A.
In this paper, we consider three landmark experiments of quantum physics and discuss the related wave particle duality paradox. We present a formalization, in terms of formal logic, of single photon self-interference. We show that the wave particle duality paradox appears, from the logic point of view, in the form of two distinct fallacies: the hard information fallacy and the exhaustive disjunction fallacy. We show that each fallacy points out some fundamental aspect of quantum physical systems and we present a logic solution to the paradox.
