感知观察者与时空的本体论

Sentient observers and the ontology of spacetime

Ovidiu Cristinel Stoica

AI总结:

本文证明无法识别唯一的时空可观测集,指出并非所有与观察者同构的结构都能成为观察者,从而反驳结构实在论与物理主义,揭示时空结构与观察者感知间的强联系。

摘要:

我证明,依据曾导出伽利略相对论、狭义相对论和规范对称性的相同标准,无法识别出一组给出空间或时空结构的唯一可观测集。在某种意义上,空间迷失于状态空间自身之中。此外,可观测集与其所代表的物理属性之间的关系变得相对。但我们能验证它们并非相对,且时空结构是唯一的。我证明这意味着并非所有与观察者同构的结构都能成为观察者,这与结构实在论和物理主义相矛盾。这表明时空与观察者的感知之间存在强联系,正如一些早期狭义和广义相对论贡献者所预期的。

英文摘要:

I show that, by the same criteria that led to Galilean and Special Relativity and gauge symmetries, there is no way to identify a unique set of observables that give the structure of space or spacetime. In some sense, space is lost in the state space itself. Moreover, the relationship between the observables and the physical properties they represent becomes relative. But we can verify that they are not relative, and the spacetime structure is unique. I show that this implies that not all structures isomorphic with observers can be observers, contradicting Structural Realism and Physicalism. This indicates a strong connection between spacetime and the sentience of the observers, as anticipated by some early contributors to Special and General Relativity.
