The Anti-Vaxjo Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Christopher A. Fuchs

Published Apr 25, 2002• 24 citations
arXivHTMLPDF

Abstract

In this note, I try to accomplish two things. First, I fulfill Andrei Khrennikov's request that I comment on his "Vaxjo Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics," contrasting it with my own present view of the subject matter. Second, I try to paint an image of the hopeful vistas an information-based conception of quantum mechanics indicates.

The Spirit and the Letter of Copenhagen: A Response to Andrei Khrennikov

Arkady Plotnitsky

The present communication addresses (by way of a response to Andrei Khrennikov's recent argument), the epistemology of quantum mechanics and Bohr's interpretation of quantum mechanics as complementarity.

Epistemology of quantum mechanics: the Växjö viewpoint

Andrei Yu. Khrennikov

This paper summarizes the experience of the Växjö series of conferences - the longest series of conferences on foundations of quantum mechanics. One of the main lessons of this series is that the present state of development of quantum theory does not exclude a possibility to elaborate a local realistic interpretation. One of such interpretations, the Växjö interpretation, combines realism and contextuality. And it became recognized worldwide.

On Probabilities in Quantum Mechanics

Inge Svein Helland

This is an attempt to clarify certain concepts related to a debate on the interpretation of quantum mechanics, a debate between Andrei Khrennikov on the one side and Blake Stacey and Rüdiger Schack on the other side. Central to this debate is the notion of quantum probabilities. I first take up the probability concept in the QBist school, and then give my own arguments for the Born formula for calculating quantum probabilities. In that connection I also sketch some consequences of my approach towards the foundation and interpretation of quantum theory. I discuss my general views on QBism as a possible alternative interpretation before I give some final remarks.

On the Unavoidability of the Interpretations of Quantum Mechanics

Roberto Beneduci, Franklin E. Schroeck

Recently, the presence in the literature (also recent) of voluminous discussions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics has been labelled as scandalous. We claim that a weak point of the debate which hosted such a conclusion is a lack of a definition of the term "interpretation". In the present note, we would "like to make precise" that meaning and to show how such a clarification is necessary in order to avoid misunderstandings.
