The Measurement Problem in Quantum Physics
This chapter delves into the measurement problem in quantum physics, discussing its various formulations and the tension between unitary evolution and the projection postulate. It explores the concept of non-absoluteness of events and how it characterizes the measurement problem in a more theory-independent manner. The chapter also introduces categorical probability theory and its relevance to understanding quantum dynamics and measurement outcomes.
