[math-fun] Are Real Numbers Really Real?
An interesting paper by Nicolas Gisin: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1803.06824.pdf à+ É. Catapulté de mon aPhone
The main reason physicist reject Bohmian QM is not that it's non-local, but that it can't deal with particle creation and annihilation, or Gisin's viewpoint it must not only add hidden variables, but arbitrarily many hidden variables. The real numbers accepted in physics do not in general contain infinite information. They are finitely approximable and since nobody thinks we can measure things smaller than the Planck scale, the physics is finitely computable. Brent On 7/7/2019 6:18 AM, Éric Angelini wrote:
