After an introductory section, this article will focus on four questions: How should the Kyoto
School be defined? What is meant by its central philosophical concept of “absolute …

This review, of the understanding of quantum mechanics, is broad in scope, and aims to
reflect enough of the literature to be representative of the current state of the subject. To …

The original" modal interpretation" of non-relativistic quantum theory was born in the early
1970s, and at that time the phrase referred to a single interpretation. The phrase now …

The modal interpretations of quantum mechanics found their roots in the works of Van
Fraassen, 1972, Van Fraassen, 1974), who claimed that the quantum state always evolves …

In this chapter, I present the common structure of quantum theories with a primitive ontology
(PO), and discuss in what sense the classical world emerges from quantum theories as …

If decoherence is an irreversible process, its physical meaning might be clarified by
comparing quantum and classical irreversibility. In this work we carry out this comparison …

In the literature on the interpretation of quantum mechanics, not many works attempt to adopt
a proactive perspective aimed at seeing how different interpretations can enrich each other …

Abstract Although Bohr's Correspondence Principle (CP) played a central role in the first
days of quantum mechanics, its original version seems to have no present-day relevance …

Abstract Most interpretations of Quantum Mechanics alternative to Copenhagen
interpretation try to avoid the dualistic flavor of the latter. One of the basic goals of the former …

In the last years, the surprising bosonic behavior that a many-fermion system may acquire
has raised interest because of theoretical and practical reasons. This trans-statistical …
