Modal interpretations and relativity
Foundations of Physics 32 (11):1773-1784 (2002)
Abstract
A proof is given, at a greater level of generality than previous 'no-go' theorems, of the impossibility of formulating a modal interpretation that exhibits 'serious' Lorentz invariance at the fundamental level. Particular attention is given to modal interpretations of the type proposed by Bub.Author's Profile
