This is a list of this week’s papers on quantum foundations published in various journals or uploaded to preprint servers such as arxiv.org and PhilSci Archive. Effects of the Generalized Uncertainty Principle on Quantum Tunneling. (arXiv:1509.07359v1 [quant-ph]) gr-qc updates on arXiv.org on 2015-9-25 9:55am GMT Authors: Gardo Blado, Trevor Prescott, James Jennings, Joshuah Ceyanes, Rafael Sepulveda In a previous paper [Blado G, Owens C, and… Read more →
Carlos Lopez ([email protected]) The standard formulation of Quantum Mechanics violates locality of interactions and the action reaction principle. An alternative formulation in an extended phase space could preserve both principles, but Bell’s theorems show that a distribution of probability in a space of local variables can not reproduce the quantum correlations. An extended phase space is defined in an alternative formulation of Quantum Mechanics…. Read more →
This is a list of this week’s papers on quantum foundations published in various journals or uploaded to preprint servers such as arxiv.org and PhilSci Archive. Are weak measurements really necessary for Leggett-Garg type measurements?. (arXiv:1509.05136v1 [quant-ph]) quant-ph updates on arXiv.org on 2015-9-18 6:55am GMT Authors: N.D. Hari Dass Leggett-Garg inequalities are an important milestone in our quest to bridge the… Read more →

On the meaning of locality: the overlapping assumptions. (arXiv:1509.03301v1 [quant-ph]) quant-ph updates on arXiv.org on 2015-9-12 7:38am GMT Authors: Afshin Shafiee, Farhad Taher Ghahramani We examine the locality assumption of Bell’s theorem in three steps of… Read more →
Lev Vaidman Preceding Comment challenged my claim that potentials might be just auxiliary mathematical tools and that they are not necessary for explaining physical phenomena. The Comment did not confront my explanation without potentials of the Aharonov-Bohm effects appeared in the original paper, but stated that I cannot apply this explanation for seven other examples. In my reply I provide… Read more →
Yakir Aharonov, Eliahu Cohen, and Daniel Rohrlich Are the electromagnetic scalar and vector potentials dispensable? Vaidman [Phys. Rev. A 86, 040101(R) (2012)] has suggested that local interactions of gauge-invariant quantities, e.g., magnetic torques, suffice for the description of all quantum electromagnetic phenomena. We analyze six thought experiments that challenge this suggestion. All of them have explanations in terms of local interactions of gauge-dependent quantities, and,… Read more →
