QBism and the Greeks: why a quantum state does not represent an element of physical reality (1412.4211v2)
Published 13 Dec 2014 in quant-ph
Abstract: In QBism (or Quantum Bayesianism) a quantum state does not represent an element of physical reality but an agent's personal probability assignments, reflecting his subjective degrees of belief about the future content of his experience. In this paper, we contrast QBism with hidden-variable accounts of quantum mechanics and show the sense in which QBism explains quantum correlations. QBism's agent-centered worldview can be seen as a development of ideas expressed in Schr\"odinger's essay "Nature and the Greeks".
