On the foundations of quantum theory

Badis Ydri

Published 2018-11-10Version 1

We draw systematic parallels between the measurement problem in quantum mechanics and the information loss problem in black holes. Then we proceed to propose a solution of the former along the lines of the solution of the latter which is based on the holographic gauge/gravity duality. The proposed solution is based on 1) the quantum dualism between the local view of reality provided by Copenhagen and the manifold view provided by the many-worlds and on 2) the properties of quantum entanglement in particular its fungibility.

Comments: 91 pages, 12 figures. This essay is based on invited lectures at Jijel MSB University (29-31 October 2018) and El-oued EHL University (11-15 March 2018)
