Is Quantum Mechanics Compatible with an Entirely Deterministic Universe?

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-10-22 v3

Abstract

A b s t r a c t It will be argued that 1) the Bell inequalities are not equivalent with those inequalities derived by Pitowsky and others that indicate the Kolmogorovity of a probability model, 2) the original Bell inequalities are irrelevant to both the question of whether or not quantum mechanics is a Kolmogorovian theory as well as the problem of determinism, whereas 3) the Pitowsky type inequalities are not violated by quantum mechanics, hence 4) quantum mechanics is a Kolmogorovian probability theory, therefore, 5) it is compatible with an entirely deterministic universe.
