量子力学多世界解释的哲学审视

多世界解释是由量子力学"测量难题"出发,基于不同视角和方法提出的一种关于整个量子力学的解释理论。该理论并不是一种单一的解释理论,而是多种解释理论的集合,包括相对态解释、德·维特理论、多视域解释、多心灵解释、多历史解释和多纤维理论等。多世界解释存在着共同的物理框架和哲学基础,每种解释在理论纲领和思想内核上又具有一定的独立性。多世界解释的理论贡献一是超越还原论,走向整体论;二是解构二元论,回到一元论;三是消解非决定论,坚持决定论。然而,在量子力学解释没有得到最终的确认之前,寻求量子力学在哲学上的合理解释仍然是一条艰辛而漫长之路。

The Many-worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics in a Philosophical Perspective

Starting from the measurement problem in quantum mechanics , the many-worlds interpretation is an integrative interpretative theory of quantum mechanics as a whole put forward from various perspectives and based on different approaches.It is not a single theory , but an ensemble of many interpretive theories , including the relative states interpretation , DeWitt theory , the many-views interpretation , the many-minds interpretation , the many-histories interpretation and the many-threads interpretation. All of these interpretations share the same physical framework and philosophical foundation , but each has a certain independence in terms of theoretical program and intellectual essence.The theoretical contribution of the many-worlds interpretation lies in the fact that it abandons reductionism , dualism and indeterminism and embraces holism , monism and determinism.However , until the many interpretations gain final confirmation , quantum mechanics quest for a rational philosophical interpretation will have a long hard road ahead.
