The transactional interpretation and its evolution into the 21st century
This essay provides a historical, philosophical, and critical overview of the development of the transactional interpretation (TI) of quantum mechanics. It is separated into two parts. Part I presents the history and development of TI from 1986 up to 2016 (the time of writing). Part II lays out current areas of divergence among researchers in TI
Understanding Our Unseen Reality
‘Einselection’ of pointer observables
Maudlin׳s challenge refuted
The quantum liar experiment in Cramer's transactional interpretation
The transactional interpretation, counterfactuals, and weak values in quantum theory
Cramer’s Transactional Interpretation and Causal Loop Problems
Why the Afshar experiment does not refute complementarity
Weak values and consistent histories in quantum theory
The Nature of the Controversy over Time-Symmetric Quantum Counterfactuals
It is proposed that the recent controversy over “time-symmetric quantum counterfactuals” (TSQCs), based on the Aharonov-Bergmann-Lebowitz Rule for measurements of pre- and post-selected systems, can be clarified by taking TSQCs to be counterfactuals with a specific type of compound antecedent. In that case, inconsistency proofs such as that of Sharp and Shanks (1993) are not applicable, and the main issue becomes not whether such statements are t…
