Like.
I joined this forum soon after writing this paper, so this is how I have chosen my name. :smile: -

Sambuco reacted to pines-demon's post in the thread Is the quantum wave function a real object or a mathematical tool? with
Haha.
I am sure the wavefunction is not real but complex-valued :oldbiggrin: -
Sambuco reacted to Fra's post in the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality with
Like.
But the absolute KEY difference is what you omitted "but without the guiding nomology". I'd say the key difference is not in "hidden... -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.Yes, I understand. My comment, somewhat independent of @iste's opinion, is that Barandes' interpretation has the curious characteristic... -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.I think what @iste points out is interesting and reveals something particular about Barandes' interpretation. It's common to postulate a... -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.Thanks @A. Neumaier! Is this true if we limit ourselves to a single basis? I understand that the work referred to projectors associated... -

Like.
For a change, let me now try to analyze the Coleman's argument by using the charity principle... -

Haha.
Because if you can prove it, you have solved the problem of measurement in QM and deserved the Nobel prize. :partytime: -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture.As a quick aside, as I mentioned in post #94, Mott has nothing to do with Coleman's argument. Mott's analysis is correct, and in fact it... -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture.As a addition to my post #92, Coleman's argument is not equivalent to what Mott presents in his seminal 1929 work. Mott demonstrates... -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture.In case it helps, I'll share my interpretation of what Coleman is trying to say. He begins by defining the operator ##L## as having... -
Sambuco reacted to Demystifier's post in the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture with
Like.
After some thinking, I think the Mott-Coleman argument is simply wrong, because the operator ##L## does not exist. To explain it in... -

It doesn't change anything in my argument. I can define $$|\Psi_{\Omega}\rangle = |\Omega\rangle \otimes |{\rm apparatus}\; {\rm... -
Sambuco replied to the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture.Within non-relativistic quantum mechanics, as you say, a tension arises between these two concepts because spacetime is assumed to be...
