Everett interpretation quantum mechanics
2016/6/12
The subjective Everettian approach to quantum mechanics presented by Deutsch and Wallace fails to constitute an empirically viable theory of quantum phenomena. The decision theoretic implementation of...
Reply to Gao’s “Comment on”How to protect the interpretation of the wave function against protective measurements”
Quantum mechanics wave function protective measurement Gao
2016/5/31
Shan Gao (Gao 2011) recently presented a critical reconsideration of a paper I wote (Uffink 1999) on the subject of protective measurement. Here, I take the occasion to reply to his objections.
An Exceptionally Simple Argument Against the Many-worlds Interpretation: Further Consolidations
many worlds wave function protective measurement
2016/5/30
It is argued that the components of the superposed wave function of a measuring device, each of which represents a definite measurement result, do not correspond to many worlds, one of which is our wo...
Refutation of Richard Gill's Argument Against my Disproof of Bell's Theorem
Bell's theorem EPR Argument Local Realism Local Causality Quantum Mechanics
2016/5/30
I identify a number of errors in Richard Gill's purported refutation of my disproof of Bell's theorem. In particular, I point out that his central argument is based, not only on a rather trivial misre...

Pearson's wrong turning: against statistical measures of causal efficacy
causation causal efficacy statistics
2008/4/22
Standard statistical measures of strength of association, although pioneered by Pearson deliberately to be acausal, nowadays are routinely used to measure causal efficacy. But their acausal origins h...
Scientific Representation: Against Similarity and Isomorphism
representation idealization models realism structuralism
2008/4/22
I argue against theories that attempt to reduce scientific representation to similarity or isomorphism. These reductive theories aim to radically naturalise the notion of representation, since they tr...
E. Machery, R. Mallon, S. Nichols and S. Stich, have argued that there is empirical evidence against Kripke’s claim that names are not descriptive. Their argument is based on an experiment that compar...
This paper forms part of a wider campaign: to deny em pointillisme. That is the doctrine that a physical theory's fundamental quantities are defined at points of space or of spacetime, and represent i...
