The aim of the seminar is to discuss philosophical topics concerning quantum mechanics and to encourage a mutual collaboration between physicists and philosophers working at the Institute. The philosophical topics of the seminar may vary from metaphysical-oriented issues, such as the nature of the wave function and the meaning of decoherence, to more foundational issues, such as Bohm’s theory and quantum gravity.
In the first meeting of the seminar I will present my paper on decoherence titled “The unreasonable effectiveness of decoherence”. The meeting will be structured as follows: 30 min presentation (10:30/11:00) followed by a 1-hour discussion with all the participants (11:00/12:00)
