时空的相对论性结构是存在的还是认识的?

Is the relativistic Structure of Spacetime Ontic or Epistemic?

Edward J. Gillis

摘要:

正如爱因斯坦反复强调的那样,我们对空间和时间结构的认识完全基于对物理对象和过程的观察。在最基本的层次上,这些对象和过程是由量子理论描述的。然而,量子理论所采用的理论实体的本体论地位是一个相当有争议的问题。此外,贝尔发现的非定域相关性在标准相对论框架内无法轻易解释。这表明我们应该重新审视我们对时空的理解。

英文摘要:

As repeatedly emphasized by Einstein our knowledge of the structure of space and time is based entirely on inferences from observations of physical objects and processes. At the most fundamental level these objects and processes are described by quantum theory. However, the ontological status of the theoretical entities employed by quantum theory is a matter of considerable debate. Furthermore, the nonlocal correlations identified by Bell cannot readily be explained within the standard relativistic framework. This suggests that we should re-examine our understanding of spacetime.
