Växjö Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

Published Feb 19, 2002• 10 citations
arXivHTMLPDF

Abstract

We present critical arguments against individual interpretation of Bohr's complementarity and Heisenberg's uncertainty principles. Statistical interpretation of these principles is discussed in the contextual framework. We support the possibility to use Statistical Contextual Realist Interpretation of quantum formalism. In spite of all {\bf no-go} theorems (e.g., von Neumann, Kochen and Specker,..., Bell,...), recently (quant-ph/0306003 and 0306069) we constructed a realist basis of quantum mechanics. In our model both classical and quantum spaces are rough images of the fundamental {\bf prespace.} Quantum mechanics cannot be reduced to classical one. Both classical and quantum representations induce reductions of prespace information.

Classical and quantum spaces as rough images of the fundamental prespace

Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

In spite of all {\bf no-go} theorems (e.g., von Neumann, Kochen and Specker,..., Bell,...) we constructed a realist basis of quantum mechanics. In our model both classical and quantum spaces b are rough images of the fundamental {\bf prespace.} Quantum mechanics cannot be reduced to classical one. Both classical and quantum representations induce reductions of prespace information.

Contextual approach to quantum mechanics and the theory of the fundamental prespace

Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

We constructed a Hilbert space representation of a contextual Kolmogorov model. This representation is based on two fundamental observables—in the standard quantum model these are the position and momentum observables. This representation has all distinguishing features of the quantum model. Our representation is not standard model with hidden variables. In particular, this is not a reduction of the quantum model to the classical one.

From classical statistical model to quantum model through ignorance of information

Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

We consider transition from the classical statistical model to the quantum statistical model through ignorance (of huge volume) of information in process of construction of a wave function { a complex probability amplitude. Our approach clarifles relation between classical and quantum statistical models (and hence relation between classical and quantum information theories). In particular, it can be considered as a step toward demystiflcation of quantum theory. The notion of context (complex of physical conditions) is basic in this paper. We show that the main structures of quantum theory (interference of probabilities, Born's rule, complex probabilistic amplitudes, Hilbert state space, representation of observables by operators) are present in a latent form in the classical Kolmogorov probability model. However, this model should be considered as a calculus of contextual probabilities.In our approach it is forbidden to consider abstract context independent probabilities: \flrst context and then probability. In this way we obtain interference of probabilities without to appeal to the Hilbert space formalism or wave mechanics. Our formalism can be applied to various domains outside quantum physics, e.g., cognitive sci- ences, psychology, economics, chemistry: roughly speaking in any domain in that it is impossible to extract the whole information about an ontic (or to say realistic) model and hence the epis- temological (experimental or to say observational) model is constructed through huge reduction of information volume. We introduced a notion of prespace { space of states containing complete information about systems under consideration. Classical phase space and quantum Hilbert space are obtained as projections of such a prespace.

Quantum Mechanics as a Classical Theory III: Epistemology

L. S. F. Olavo

The two previous papers developed quantum mechanical formalism from classical mechanics and two additional postulates. In the first paper it was also shown that the uncertainty relations possess no ontological validity and only reflect the formalism's limitations. In this paper, a Realist Interpretation of quantum mechanics based on these results is elaborated and compared to the Copenhagen Interpretation. We demonstrate that von Neumann's proof of the impossibility of a hidden variable theory is not correct, independently of Bell's argumentation. A local hidden variable theory is found for non-relativistic quantum mechanics, which is nothing else than newtonian mechanics itself. We prove that Bell's theorem does not imply in a non-locality of quantum mechanics, and also demonstrate that Bohm's theory cannot be considered a true hidden variable theory.

The Contextual Character of Modal Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics

Graciela Domenech, Héctor Freytes, Christian DE RONDE

In this article we discuss the contextual character of quantum mechanics in the framework of modal interpretations. We investigate its historical origin and relate contemporary modal interpretations to those proposed by M. Born and W. Heisenberg. We present then a general characterization of what we consider to be a modal interpretation. Following previous papers in which we have introduced modalities in the Kochen-Specker theorem, we investigate the consequences of these theorems in relation to the modal interpretations of quantum mechanics.
