We summarise different aspects of the measurement problem in quantum mechanics. We argue that it is a real problem which requires a solution, and identify the properties a theory needs to solve the problem. We show that no current interpretation of quantum mechanics solves the problem, and that, being interpretations rather than extensions of quantum mechanics, they cannot solve it. Finally, we speculate what a solution of the measurement problem might be good for.

  1. The burden of Fundamentality: Metaphysical ambiguities and the issue of Superdeterminism

    physics.hist-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Superdeterminism is split into naive, metaphysical, and toy forms; naive forms illegitimately assume fundamentality, and Invariant Set Theory is committed to a confused priority monism.
