Mario HubertWe discuss the no-go theorem of Frauchiger and Renner based on an “extended Wigner’s friend” thought experiment which is supposed to show that any single-world interpretation of quantum mechanics leads to inconsistent predictions if it is applicable on all scales. We show that no such inconsistency occurs if one considers a complete description of the physical situation. We then discuss implications of the thought experiment that have not been clearly addressed in the original paper, including a tension between relativity and nonlocal effects predicted by quantum mechanics. Our discussion applies in particular to Bohmian mechanics.

The paper argues that far from challenging—or even refuting—Bohm’s quantum theory, the no-hidden-variables theorems in fact support the Bohmian ontology for quantum mechanics. The reason is that (i) all measurements come down to position measurements; and (ii) Bohm’s theory provides a clear and coherent explanation of the measurement outcome statistics based on an ontology of particle positions, a law for their evolution and a probability measure linked with that law. What the no-hidden-variables theorems teach us is that (i) one cannot infer the properties that the physical systems possess from observables; and that (ii) measurements, being an interaction like other interactions, change the state of the measured system.
About Me
Dustin Lazarovici is currently an Assistant Professor at the
Humanities and Arts Department of the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology.
In 2015, he received a PhD in mathematics from the University of Munich, where
he worked on many-particle systems and the derivation of mean field equations
under the supervision of Detlef Dürr. Dustin Lazarovici then joined the
Institute of Philosophy at the Université de Lausanne (UNIL) as a Feodor Lynen
Research Fellow before regressing back to a PhD student. In 2020, Dustin
Lazarovici received a PhD in philosophy for his thesis “Typicality as a Way of
Reasoning in Physics and Metaphysics”, supervised by Michael Esfeld. Dustin
Lazarovici is a Fellow of the John Bell Institute for the Foundations of
Physics and a member of the international research network on Bohmian
Mechanics. His primary research interests are in: the foundations of quantum
mechanics, foundations of statistical mechanics, the arrow of time, the
ontology of physics, and the metaphysics of natural laws.
