The cosmological origin of time asymmetry
- M. Castagnino, L. Lara, O. Lombardi
- Physics
- 25 November 2002
In this paper, we address the problem of the arrow of time from a cosmological point of view, rejecting the traditional entropic approach that defines the future direction of time as the direction of…
Is the Decoherence of a System the Result of its Interaction with the Environment
- M. Castagnino, S. Fortin, O. Lombardi
- Physics
- 20 January 2010
According to a usual reading, decoherence is a process resulting from the interaction between a small system and its large environment where information and energy are dissipated. The particular…
The Formulation of Quantum Mechanics in Terms of Nuclear Algebras

In this work we analyze the convenience ofnuclear barreled b*-algebras as a better mathematicalframework for the formulation of quantum principles thanthe usual algebraic formalism in terms of…
The Arrow of Time: From Universe Time-Asymmetry to Local Irreversible Processes
- M. Aiello, M. Castagnino, O. Lombardi

Abstract
In several previous papers we have argued for a global and non-entropic approach to the problem of the arrow of time, according to which the “arrow” is only a metaphorical way of expressing…
FROM CLASSICAL CHAOS TO DECOHERENCE IN ROBERTSON–WALKER COSMOLOGY
- F. Lombardo, M. Castagnino, L. Bombelli
- Physics
- 25 June 1998
We analyze the relationship between classical chaos and particle creation in Robertson–Walker cosmological models with gravity coupled with a scalar field. Within our class of models chaos and…
The modal-Hamiltonian interpretation of quantum mechanics : physical relevance and philosophical implications
- O. Lombardi, S. Fortin, M. Castagnino, J. S. Ardenghi
- Philosophy
- 2010
The aim of this chapter is to supply a comprehensiv e presentation of a new member of the family of the modal interpretations of quantum mechanics. Ac cording to our modal-Hamiltonian interpretation,…

Quantum Mechanics: Modal Interpretation and Galilean Transformations
- J. S. Ardenghi, M. Castagnino, O. Lombardi
- Physics

The aim of this paper is to consider in what sense the modal-Hamiltonian interpretation of quantum mechanics satisfies the physical constraints imposed by the Galilean group. In particular, we show…
