Do we really understand quantum mechanics?
by F. Laloe
Publisher: Zuckschwerdt Publishers 2001
Number of pages: 117
Description:
This text presents a general discussion of several aspects of our present understanding of quantum mechanics. The emphasis is put on the very special correlations that this theory makes possible: they are forbidden by very general arguments based on realism and local causality.

Manifesting the Quantum Worldby Ulrich Mohrhoff - arXiv
In resisting attempts to explain the unity of a whole in terms of a multiplicity of interacting parts, quantum mechanics calls for an explanatory concept that proceeds in the opposite direction: from unity to multiplicity ...

Principles of a 2nd Quantum Mechanics: Indeterminism, Non-locality, Unificationby Mioara Mugur-Schächter - arXiv.org
A qualitative representation of microstates is established quite independently of the quantum mechanical mathematical formalism. The foundations of an intelligible reconstruction of the Hilbert-Dirac formulation of Quantum Mechanics is developed.

Lectures on the Quantum Hall Effectby David Tong - University of Cambridge
These lectures describe the basic theoretical structures underlying the quantum Hall effect. The focus is on the interplay between microscopic wavefunctions, long-distance effective Chern-Simons theories, and the modes which live on the boundary.

Quantum Mechanics Revisitedby Jean Claude Dutailly - arXiv
From a general study of the relations between models, meaning the set of variables with their mathematical properties, and the measures they represent, a new formalism is developed, which covers the scope of Quantum Mechanics.
