interpretation of quantum mechanics
set of statements which attempt to explain how quantum mechanics informs our understanding of nature
ensemble interpretation
interpretation of quantum mechanics that considers the quantum state description to apply only to an ensemble of similarly prepared systems, rather than supposing that it exhaustively represents an individual physical system
many-worlds interpretation
interpretation of quantum mechanics which denies the collapse of the wavefunction
Copenhagen interpretation
probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics involving wavefunction collapse
pilot wave theory
interpretation of quantum mechanics
Berkeleian interpretation
interpretation of quantum physics
transactional interpretation
interpretation of quantum mechanics according to which retarded (forward in time) and advanced (backward in time) waves form a quantum interaction as a Wheeler–Feynman handshake
stochastic quantum mechanics
Interpretation of QM
relational quantum mechanics
interpretation of quantum mechanics which treats the state of a quantum system as the relation between the observer and the system
many-minds interpretation
interpretation of quantum mechanics in which the distinction between worlds encoded by a quantum state is made at the level of the mind of an individual observer
consistent histories
Interpretation of quantum mechanics based on a consistency criterion that assigns probabilities to various alternative histories of a system
