Your name here, renormalize, holds the key, as I think you probably know. In QFT, early on, there was a deep problem. We kept getting... -
An effective theory is one that is admitted to not be fundamental. Or, if you insist on a definition that doesn't use either of those...

Sorry, I didn't make the context clear. What we did in the papers and book I referenced above is part of the quantum reconstruction...

Like.
Thanks for this, @gentzen. I found it on the CI of QM page for SEP. What I now find remarkable is that contextuality is a very natural... -

Remember that the underlying ontology here is the system's classical configuration, and so variables represented by a diagonal matrix in...

iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.Yes, but I would be assuming this anyway if we are talking about beables. And the emergeable / beable distinction isn't necessarily...
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.But positions at different times is also clearly contextual. Either way, if beables are always belong to a specific measurement context...

iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.Yes, in https://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.10778 he seems to acknowledge that there is no meaning to trajectories without constructing...

iste reacted to Fra's post in the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM with Like.
The Ad hoc reasoning we have all seen? Sure. But it is elegant and something to strive for? And even if an ad hoc model can later be...
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.But surely this happens all the time elsewhere in science?
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.Well, I guess there is nothing more to be said. I can only reiterate that with Barandes' stochastic-quantum dictionaries like the one...
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.Then make rebuttles to my points: e.g. The unistochastic marginal probabilities are just the Born probabilities: i.e. measured...
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.Sure, but its preferable to have a description of the system when its not being measured if you are going to make that speculation...
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.I don't think Bohmian mechanics is the correct interpretation or approach either, I just like this example. Maybe Barandes' might...
-
iste replied to the thread I Carroll interviews Barandes on Indivisible Stochastic QM.I think you and Barandes are overinterpreting what the formalism can possibly say. There is no stochastic process here where the system...
