The topics include foundational issues in quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and physical computation. Coverage explores such questions as: Is quantum mechanics a new theory of (contextual) probability? Is the quantum state interpreted objectively or subjectively? Do typicality statements explain thermodynamic behavior? The essays also examine aspects of the physical implementation of computation, such as quantum computation and the limits of computability. The impact of this volume will be beyond the exposition of Pitowsky’s influence: it will also be a unique collection containing profound reflections of the field by leading thinkers.weiterlesen
