Foundations of Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Information Theory: A Workshop with Jeffrey Bub
by Neil Dewar June 11, 2018

June 11, 2018

********************************************* The Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy invites registrations for the following event: Foundations of Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Information Theory: A Workshop with Jeffrey Bub MCMP, LMU Munich June 20, 2018 http://www.mcmp.philosophie.uni-muenchen.de/events/workshops/container/foun… <http://www.mcmp.philosophie.uni-muenchen.de/events/workshops/container/foun…> ********************************************* The foundations of quantum mechanics have long been a focus of philosophical interest, from both philosophers of science and physicists: what is the best resolution of the so-called “measurement problem”? What is the nature and status of the quantum correlations? And how best do we understand the differences between quantum and classical mechanics? With Jeffrey Bub, whose recent book Bananaworld explores quantum foundations from an information-theoretic perspective, this workshop will examine such conceptual and philosophical issues. Registration: Please send notice to attend to neil.dewar(a)lrz.uni-muenchen.de <mailto:neil.dewar@lrz.uni-muenchen.de>. If you want to join the Conference Dinner (at your own expense), please mention it in your registration message.
