Research Abstract |
The problem of realistic interpretation of quantum theory has produced several paradoxes and remains an important open problem in foundations of quantum theory. In this study we introduced methods of foundations of mathematics into this problem, and constructed quantum set theory, a challenging new approach, aiming at a realistic interpretation of quantum theory. We developed quantum set theory over a general orthomodular lattice, gave foundations of modal interpretation of quantum theory based on it, and clarified the notions of reality in Bohr's complementarity principle.
