Probability in physics:stochastic,statistical,quantum
quantum mechanics statistical mechanics stochastic dynamics probability objective chance
2016/6/15
I review the role of probability in contemporary physics and the origin of probabilistic time asymmetry, beginning with the pre-quantum case (both stochastic mechanics and classical statistical mechan...
Logic,Geometry And Probability Theory
quantum logic-lattice theory-geometry of quantum mechanics-quantum probability
2016/6/13
We discuss the relationship between logic, geometry and probability theory under the light of a novel approach to quantum probabilities which generalizes the method developed by R. T. Cox to the quant...

2016/6/13
We argue that quantum theory does not allow for a generalization of the notion of classical conditional probability by showing that the probability defined by the Lüders rule, standardly interpreted i...
The aim of this article is twofold. First, we shall review and analyse the Neo-Kantian justification for the application of probabilistic concepts in physics that was defended by Hans Reichenbach earl...
Toward a Mechanistic Interpretation of Probability
probability causal structure determinism sensitive dependence frequency
2009/6/19
I sketch a new objective interpretation of probability, called "mechanistic probability", and more specifically what I call "far-flung frequency (FFF) mechanistic probability". FFF mechanistic probabi...
PROBABILISTIC EVENTS AND PHYSICAL REALITY: A COMPLETE ALGEBRA OF PROBABILITY
Probability foundations random events
2008/4/22
This contribution derives from a rather extensive study on the foundations of probability. We start by discussing critically the two main models of the random event in Probability Theory and cast ligh...
Probability All The Way Up(Or No Probability At All)
Probability frequentism Bayes Richard Jeffrey
2008/4/22
Richard Jeffrey's radical probabilism (`probability all the way down') is augmented by the claim that probability cannot be turned into certainty, except by data that logically exclude all alternative...
Probability in the Everett World: Comments on Wallace and Greaves
Everett probability quantum mechanics many worlds
2008/4/22
It is often objected that the Everett interpretation of QM cannot make sense of quantum probabilities, in one or both of two ways: either it can’t make sense of probability at all, or it can’t explain...
Probability theory and causation.A branching space-times analysis
branching space-times causation probabilities screening-off
2008/4/22
We provide a formally rigorous framework for integrating singular causation, as understood by Nuel Belnap's theory of causae causantes, and objective single case probabilities. The central notion is t...
Probability without certaintyFoundationalism and the Lewis-Reichenbach debate
Epistemic foundationalism Probability Lewis Reichenbach
2008/4/22
Like many discussions on the pros and cons of epistemic foundationalism, the debate between C.I. Lewis and H. Reichenbach dealt with three concerns: the existence of basic beliefs, their nature, and t...
Probability, Arrow of Time and Decoherence
time asymmetry of probabilities decoherent histories
2008/4/22
This paper relates both to the metaphysics of probability and to the physics of time asymmetry. Using the formalism of decoherent histories, it investigates whether intuitions about intrinsic time dir...
The conjunction fallacy has been a key topic in debates on the rationality of human reasoning and its limitations. Despite extensive inquiry, however, the attempt of providing a satisfactory account o...
Probability, Rational Single-Case Decisions and the Monty Hall Problem
Probability Rational Decision Monty Hall Problem
2008/4/22
The application of probabilistic arguments to single cases and decision-making is a contentious
philosophical problem arises in various contexts. This paper focuses on the validity of
probabilistic ...
The Everett (many-worlds) interpretation of quantum mechanics faces a prima facie problem concerning quantum probabilities. Research in this area has been fast-paced over the last few years, following...
Probability and time symmetry in classical Markov processes
probability time symmetry Markov processes arrow of time
2008/4/22
Definitions of time symmetry and examples of time-directed behaviour are discussed in the framework of discrete Markov processes. It is argued that typical examples of time-directed behaviour can be d...
