We study the physical content of the PT-symmetric complex extension of quantum mechanics as proposed in Bender et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 5243 (1998) and 89, 270401 (2002), and show that as a fundamental probabilistic physical theory it is…
We show that the comment [cond-mat/0408217] by Continentino on our recent paper [PRL 91, 066404 (2003), cond-mat/0212335] reaches incorrect conclusions as the comment wrongly extrapolates from results valid close to a classical phase…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author because the conclusions reached in it are incorrect.
In the paper [Hong-Shi Zong, Wei-Min Sun, Phys. Lett. B 640 (2006) 196], the authors claim that our proof of the inconsistency of the ladder approximation to QCD [Phys. Lett. B 611 (2005) 129] was incorrect. However, their claim is based on…
Some formulas and speculations are presented relative to integrable systems and quantum mechanics.
In this note, the irreducible representations of a lifting of a quantum plane are determined. Both authors thank Hans-J\"urgen Schneider for pointing out a mistake in the published version of the paper, that is corrected here.
This paper was withdrawn by the author. It turns out that similar ideas have been presented before. The author apologizes.
Omnes' interpretation of quantum mechanics is summarized, and compared with other consistent-history approaches by Gell-Mann and Hartle, and by Griffiths.
A central feature in the Copenhagen interpretation is the use of classical concepts from the outset. Modern developments show, however, that the emergence of classical properties can be understood within the framework of quantum theory…
In the paper it is demonstrated that Bells theorem is an unprovable theorem.
We read Karen Crowther's \emph{Another 100 Years of Quantum Interpretation?} with two practical goals. First, we spell out what she means by interpretation'': an attempt to provide understanding (not just predictions), which may be…
Relational Quantum Mechanics (RQM) claims to be an interpretation of quantum theory [see arXiv:2109.09170, which appears in the Oxford Handbook of the History of Interpretation of Quantum Physics]. However, there are significant departures…
The attempt to equate operator quantum error correction (quant-ph/0504189v1) with the quantum computer condition (quant-ph/0507141) in version two of quant-ph/0504189 is shown to be invalid.
With a view to eliminate an important misconception in some recent publications, we give a brief review of the notion of a pseudo-Hermitian operator, outline pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics, and discuss its basic difference with the…
Quantum mechanics is a theory that is as effective as it is counterintuitive. While quantum practices operate impeccably, they compel us to embrace enigmatic phenomena like the collapse of the state vector and non-locality, thereby pushing…
We point out that the claims made in the paper ``Non-thermalizability of a Quantum Field Theory'' (hep-th/9802008) by C. R. Hagen are irrelevant to our recent results concerning large gauge invariance of the effective action in thermal QED.
The following two papers form a natural development of a previous series of three articles on the foundations of quantum mechanics; they are intended to take the theory there developed to its utmost logical and epistemological consequences.…
It is shown that the analysis and the main result of the article by L-A. Wu [Phys. Rev. A 53, 2053 (1996)] are completely erroneous.
We show in this comment that the claim by Ancona-Torres et al. of an equilibrium quantum or classical phase transition in the LiHo$_x$Y$_{1-x}$F$_4$ system is not supported by a rigorous scaling analysis.
The interpretation of quantum mechanics has been a problem since its founding days. A large contribution to the discussion of possible interpretations of quantum mechanics is given by the so-called impossibility proofs for hidden variable…
