Logical Quantum Structures

Here the schedule and poster of the workshop

Workshop organized by

Décio Krause
 (Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil)

and

Christian de Ronde
(University of Buenos Aires / CONICET, Argentina and Center Leo Apostel, Belgium)

 

This workshop intends to lighten from several points of view some foundational aspects of physical theories, mainly quantum theories, such as mathematical, philosophical, logical, metaphysical and ontological aspects.

The aim is to indicate some possible lines of philosophical and logical investigation which seem to be in need of deeper research in this field, so as to join people with common interest and to motivate the formation of research groups.Some of the topics to be discussed are:

  • Quantum logic: approaches and perspectives.
  • Inconsistencies and paradoxes in quantum mechanics: how to consider them.
  • Identity and individuality: can quantum objects be treated as individuals?
  • Modality in quantum mechanics: formal and interpretational issues.
  • Quantum computation: logical frameworks.quantum structures
  • Formal aspects of quantum theories
  • Non-reflexive quantum mechanics
  • Paraconsistent quantum mechanics
