Book Draft: The Logic of Partitions
This book draft is an introduction to the logic of partitions on a set as well as the (quantum) logic of partitions (direct-sum decompositions or DSDs) on a vector space.

View ArticleAbstraction in Math and Superposition in QM
Abstraction turns equivalence into identity, but there are two ways to do it. The goal is to use the second notion of abstraction to shed some light on the notion of an inde finite superposition in...

The slogan ``Follow the money" means that finding the source of an organization's or person's money may reveal their true nature. In a similar sense, we use the slogan ``Follow the math!" to mean that...
View ArticleThe new partitional approach to (literally) interpreting quantum mechanics
This paper presents a new `partitional' approach to understanding or interpreting standard quantum mechanics (QM). The thesis is that the mathematics (not the physics) of QM is the Hilbert space...

This paper shows that implicit assumptions about the numeraire good in the Kaldor–Hicks efficiency–equity analysis involve a ‘‘same-yardstick’’ fallacy (a fallacy pointed out by Paul Samuelson in...
View ArticleThe Born Rule is a feature of Superposition
The Born Rule arises naturally out of the mathematics of probability theory enriched by superposition events. It does not need any more-exotic or physics-based explanation. No physics was used in the...

Saunders Mac Lane famously remarked that “Bourbaki just missed” formulating adjoints in a 1948 appendix (written no doubt by Pierre Samuel) to an early draft of Algebre–which then had to wait until...
View ArticleNew Logic & New Approach to QM
The new logic of partitions is dual to the usual Boolean logic of subsets (usually presented only in the special case of the logic of propositions) in the sense that partitions and subsets are...

View ArticleA Pedagogical Model of Quantum Mechanics Over Sets
The new approach to quantum mechanics (QM) is that the mathematics of QM is the linearization of the mathematics of partitions (or equivalence relations) on a set. This paper develops those ideas using...
